Potato Bun

Potato Bun

Everyday

A potato bun is a soft bread roll made with potato flour or mashed potatoes incorporated into the dough, resulting in a slightly sweet flavor and moist, dense texture. The added potato starch enhances moisture retention and creates a golden crust during baking, while reducing gluten development for a tender crumb compared to traditional wheat buns. Commonly used for burgers and sandwiches, it provides higher carbohydrate content from both wheat and potato sources, offering a balance of chewiness and pillowy softness.
