            Large amount of oats used here, both potato and oats contribute good tasty bread.



Recipe from here
Ingredients
1 potato, skin peeled
( in a small saucepan with just enough water, bring it to boil. Cover the lid, in low heat, let it continute to cook and get softened for about 20 minutes. Drain out the water and keep it for later use. Mash the potato).
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp instant dry yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1 and 1/2 cups warm milk
1 tbsp salt
1 and 1/2 cups rolled oats
5 and 1/2  to 6 cups unbleached flour
a little rolled oats to coat the baking pans


                                                               
                                                                        mine is 236g..
 
                                                                    slice and boil them...

                    mashed potato, left-over potato water from the boiling, oats...main ingredients

                                                                      well-risen dough...


                                                          second rise done, ready to be baked.



Methods 
Using a few tablespoons from your potato water, add in the yeast and 1 tbsp sugar. Sitr to dissolve the yeast. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, when it gets foamy it is ready to be used.
Combine the mashed potato,  yeast mixture, sugar, milk, salt, oatmeal and 2 cups flour in your mixer and knead. Gradually add in the flour, continute to knead until the dough is in the right consistency. At this stage, I added in the left-over potato water as well.
( dough should be sticky as the oatmeal will continue to absorb during the rising).

Roll into a ball. Cover and let it rise for an hour or until, it doubles it's size.
Pat and shape dough into two loaves to fit your pans.
Sprinkle some oatmeal on the bottom of the pan. Cover and let it rise again for an hour or until, it doubles it's size.
Bake at preheated oven of 350F/ 180C for 35 minutes.
