Ingredients

1 (1/4 ounce) envelope active dry yeast (7 g)
1 cup warm milk (240 ml)
1/3 cup vegetable shortening, at room temperature (80 g)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon salt (5 g)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (2.5 g)
3 cups all-purpose flour (220 g)
1 cup mashed potatoes, at room temperature (175 g)
1/2 cup shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese (50 g)
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (50 g)

Instructions

Grease a deep round or oval 2-quart pot and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast by stirring into warm milk.
Blend the shortening, egg, salt, pepper, and 1 cup of flour and beat until smooth for about 2 minutes. Add the remaining 2 cups flour, the potatoes, and cheddar cheese, stir until well blended.
Scoop the dough in the prepared casserole, transfer into a large bowl, and cover with plastic wrapper. Place in a warm area and allow dough to rise until it doubles in size for about 40-60 minutes.
Prepare and preheat the oven to 375°F.
Drizzle dough with Parmesan cheese evenly, over the top of the dough and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Move the bread to a wire rack to cool, then cut into slices.
Serve and Enjoy!
