Russian Potato Buns

Name: Russian Potato Buns
Ingredients: Mashed potatoes 150 g; Milk 80 ml; Sugar 50 g; Egg 1 pcs; Active dry yeast 7 g; Water 80 ml; Butter 70 g; Whole wheat flour 450 g; Salt 1 tsp

Do not be scared of the name – actually, there is not much potato in these buns, and in the end it is not felt at all. The buns themselves are very delicate and fluffy. Their softness is not lost even after a night in a plastic bag. In a word, I am (and not only me) simply in wild delight from this batch. It is a pity that I limited myself to flour soup – so I would eat them and eat without end ... By the way, these rolls look like something similar to the Ukrainian donuts to borscht – if they are poured on top with garlic sauce, they will completely come down for them.
