4 med. size potatoes
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. salt
1 cake yeast dissolved in 1/2 c. warm water
4 c. flour
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. candied fruit
1/2 c. chopped nuts

Pare and boil potatoes and mash very well and put through a sieve. Add the sugar, salt, butter and dissolved yeast cake. Stir flour (sifted) into the mixture, beating well. Add more flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured board and knead a few minutes or until smooth and elastic.

Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover and let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk. Punch down and add fruits and nuts, kneading them in. Shape into loaves, place in greased loaf pans, let rise until light and bake in a 350 degree oven, 45-50 minutes.
