Amish Friendship bread (using pudding)

 Amish Vanilla Pudding Friendship Bread

Starter

Day 1:
2 cups flour
1 cup warm water
1/4 ounce dry yeast

Stir the ingredients together well in a large bowl. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and let sit for 24 hours.

Day 2:
1 cup milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour

 Add to Day 1 mixture, and stir well. Cover lightly with plastic wrap.

Day 3, 4 and 5: Stir.

Day 6:
1 cup milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour

Add to previous mixture; stir well.

Day 7, 8 and 9: Stir.

Day 10:
1 cup milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour

Add and stir well.

Fill 3 containers with 1 cup of starter. Give two of the containers away (along with the recipes). Store the remaining container in the refrigerator. This will leave enough starter to make the bread. To keep the starter going, start the process over at the step for day two. Use the container you saved in the refrigerator as the step for day one.

I love Amish friendship bread and I finally found a recipe last year in a cookbook by Janet Oke. However, my oven is not functioning at the moment so making anything is pretty much out.

I look forward to making this one real soon. Have a great week!
