Here's a fantastic loaf of bread. Plenty of flavors... the flavors of that classic appetizer... Loaded Potato Skins...Instant Potato Flakes makes this soft and a great "crumb" for sandwiches.
Sour Cream adds extra moisture throughout with a hint of that snappy flavor.
BACON BACON BACON... YOU BET! Real bacon mixed throughout.
Chives for a hint of Savory Onion flavor!
This is a fantastic flavored bread that would be perfect to serve along side a soup (Getting cold isn't it a great time for soup?).
And all made easy with that handy dandy favorite of mine, the Bread Machine doing all of the work of mixing, kneading and the first rise. Making this a real CROWD PLEASER, and a very easy DIY Bread that people will RAVE about!
Enjoy!
