Irish Potato Bread


Ingredients

3/4 cup cooked, mashed potato
3/4 cup raw, grated potato
1 egg
1 egg white
1/3 cup oil
3/4 cup milk
2 Tbsp chives, diced
1 tsp caraway seeds (or you can use sesame seeds)
3 cups flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp sea salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 375. Lightly oil an 8 inch cast iron pan or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
Mix the mashed potato with the grated potato. Stir in egg, egg white, oil, and milk until well combined.
In another bowl, stir together chives, caraway seeds, flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until a soft dough forms.
Lightly flour a work surface. 
Turn the dough out onto the flour and knead 6 - 7 times. 
Place dough into center of prepared cast iron pan and gently press into an 8 inch circle. 
Use a sharp knife to cut an "X" into the top.
Bake at 375 for about 45 - 55 minutes. It should be nicely browned and sound hollow when tapped.  
Remove from oven and let sit on wire rack for 5 minutes before removing from pan. 
Let cool for at least an hour before slicing. or it will be rather crumbly to cut. 
Simple yet looks so impressive.
Oh...yes.....it tastes AMAZING too. 
When I made a second loaf I threw in 1/2 cup of shredded Mozza cheese and it was crazy good.
It can be a little hard to tell when it is completely cooked. 
If in doubt...leave it in a few minutes longer. 
If, perchance, you remove it before it is not completely cooked through.
Don't panic.
I've been there....done that...
