Dough
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup margarine
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup powdered milk
1 tablespoon yeast
2 cups white flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
Potato Filling
4 medium hot cooked potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
Topping
1 medium onion, chopped in big pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons oil
margarine, to brush over top
sour cream, to your liking

1
Mix together the warm water, margarine, salt and milk powder. Slowly stir the flour into the liquid ingredients until it makes a soft dough. Spray a medium-sized bowl with vegetable oil spray and place the dough in the bowl. Spray the top of the dough with vegetable oil spray. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size.
2
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Let the dough rest for 5 - 10 minutes. Prepare filling by mixing all ingredients and stirring well. Roll out each piece of dough and put a couple of spoonfuls of filling in the middle of the dough. Add a little sour cream and roll the dough up like little loaves of bread.
3
Let the loaves rise until double in size. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 - 30 minutes. They should be golden brown. Place on a wire rack and brush a little margarine on top of each little loaf.
4
In a small skillet heat 1 1/2 Tbsp oil and saute onion a few minutes. Serve onion on top of the potato pies with a dollop of sour cream.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
