potato flakes? like instant mashed potato type flakes?

Yup, that's it exactly. Potato flakes are frequently used in various bread recipes to increase softness and shelf life. You can also use actual mashed potatoes and/or potato water (water that potatoes have been cooked in) but then you must adjust the moisture in the recipe accordingly.

What do I need to do to convert this recipe for oven baking as I do not have a bread machine?

Nothing, just mix and knead as you would for any other bread recipe.
