Ingredients: Starter:
1 pkg active dry yeast
2-1/2 c. warm water
2 c. flour
1 tbsp. sugar
Next, when you're ready to bake the bread, add the following ingredients to 1 c. of starter:
1 c. oil
1 c. sugar
2 c. flour
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
3 eggs
1 large box or two small boxes vanilla pudding mix
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt

Directions: |
Directions:Dissolve yeast in 1 c. of the warm water. Stir in remaining warm water, flour and sugar, beat until smooth. Place in a glass bowl on the countertop and do not refrigerate. Cover with plastic wrap.
After the starter has fermented for 10 days, you're ready to begin the next 10 days. Make sure you don't miss a day! Mixture might become bubbly, and that's okay.
Day 1: Begin or receive starter
Day 2: Stir
Day 3: Stir
Day 4: Stir
Day 5: Add 1 c. sugar, 1 c. flour, 1 c. milk
Day 6: Stir
Day 7: Stir
Day 8: Do nothing
Day 9: Do nothing
Day 10: Add 1 c. sugar, 1 c. flour, 1 c. milk
After all 10 days are completed, put 1 c. of the starter in four separate containers. Give three to your friends and keep one for yourself to bake with later. You can give the starters in Ziplock bags, but make sure your friends "burp" the bag each day to keep excess air out.
When you give the starter to them, they're ready to begin the Day 1 instructions immediately.
Next, when you're ready to bake the bread, add the following ingredients to 1 c. of starter:
1 c. oil
1 c. sugar
2 c. flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3 eggs
1 large box or two small boxes vanilla pudding mix
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
Beat by hand until well blended. If desired, add one cup raisins, nuts or chocolate chips. Grease two loaf pans and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. |
