Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 12 minutes. Yields 6 servings.

Note: For Brown Soda Bread, use 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup white flour with 3/4 of soda mixture and bake as above.

And the Web site, www.Cooks.com, has this recipe posted.

Depression Potato Bread

2 1/2 cups mashed potatoes
2 tablespoon softened butter
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons salt
2 1/2 cups warm water mixed with 2 cups warm milk
1 package yeast, dissolved in 1/2 cup warm water
16 cups all-purpose flour, divided

Using your largest bowl, stir together all ingredients except flour. Gradually stir in 10 cups flour. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

Add remaining flour until you get a stiff dough. Knead dough 5 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Divide dough into fourths and shape into loaves. Place into loaf pans approximately 3-by-4-by-8-inches. Cover each and let rise until dough has doubled in size.

Heat oven to 375°F. Bake loaves until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove baked bread from pans and let cool on cooling rack.

Once cool, store in airtight containers. If you eat it while it’s warm, it won’t last long.
