Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the water and yeast. Let it sit until the yeast foams, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pot. Add the pineapple juice and milk and heat until it reaches 110ºF. (If it gets hotter than that, set it aside until it has cooled to 110ºF - 115ºF so that you don't risk killing the yeast.)
- In a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine 4 cups of the flour, the potato flakes, sugar, and salt.
- Add the butter mixture to the bowl, followed by the yeast mixture. Mix to combine.
- Add the eggs, mix, then add the vanilla. Start adding the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until it starts to come together. Switch to the dough hook and continue to knead for about 5-6 minutes, adding flour as needed, until the dough is soft and smooth - it will still be tacky, but shouldn't be overly sticky. (Alternately, turn the dough out onto a surface and knead, adding flour as needed, until smooth and soft.)
- Spray a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Add the dough, and turn once to coat. Cover and let rise until the dough has doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 3 equal portions. If making round boules, shape into balls and place in 9-inch pans that have been lined in parchment paper. If making loaves, shape and place in 9×5-inch loaf pans. Cover and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Bake the loaves until golden brown, about 30-35 minutes. If the bread starts to become too dark, cover lightly with foil in the last 10-15 minutes.
- If desired, rub the loaves with butter as soon as they come out of the oven. Let cool before slicing.
