Ingredients

  • all-purpose flour

Directions

1. Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, 1 cup potato flakes, sugar, yeast and salt in a bowl.

2. In a saucepan, heat the milk, butter and onions, remove just before boiling. Add to dry ingredients; beat until moistened. Add eggs; beat on medium speed for 3 minutes.

Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.

3. Punch dough down. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes. Turn onto a floured surface; divide into balls.

4. Dip each ball into remaining potato flakes. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.

5. Bake at 375F for 25-35 minutes until golden brown.
