DD gave me a starter for Amish friendship bread about 2 months ago. Every 10 days you end up with 4 starters and one more to make two loaves of bread. It's a sweet bread, easy to make and can be done in a variety of flavors. After giving away all I could, still ended up with more than I could handle.
From days 1-5 all you do is mash the mixture in a plastic bag. Day 6 add sugar, flour and milk and mash. Mash again on days 7-9. On day 10 add more flour, sugar and milk, separate the starters. To the one to be made up, add eggs, more flour, sugar and milk, oil, (I used half oil and half applesauce) flavoring, baking powder, baking soda, salt and a large package of instant pudding mix. Bakes an hour.
Today spend the day baking and using up all but one of the starters. Have a vanilla with cinnamon sugar topping, lemon, chocolate with mini chips, and strawberry. With the last starter, will wait the 10 days and make a pistachio one then I'm done. It's addicting and I hate to throw some away but you can only have so many.
