Title: Friendship Starter and Bread
Categories: Breads, Hand made
Yield: 1 Servings

Add To The Starter:
2/3 c Oil
3 Eggs
2 c Flour
1 c Sugar
2 ts Cinnamon
1 1/4 ts Baking Powder
1/2 ts Baking Soda
1/2 ts Salt
2 ts Vanilla

My sister-in-law gave me a recipe for Amish Friendship Bread along with a
jar-full of the starter mix. Here is the recipe:

***Do not use metal spoon ***Do not refrigerate dough!!

day 1 -- Get starter and do nothing day 2 -- Stir once each day with wooden
spoon day 3 -- Stir once each day with wooden spoon day 4 -- Stir once each
day with wooden spoon day 5 -- Add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk and
stir day 6 -- Stir once each day with wooden spoon day 7 -- Stir once each
day with wooden spoon day 8 -- Stir once each day with wooden spoon day 9
~- Stir once each day with wooden spoon day 10 - Add 1 cup flour, 1 cup
sugar, 1 cup milk and stir.
pour into containers of 1 cup each and give to 3 friends
with copy of recipe (or 2 friends and keep 1 start for yourself)

Pour into 2 well greased and sugared loaf pans. Bake 40 to 50 min. at 350
degrees. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan. The bread may be
frozen for a later date. (note the starter)

Okay, this is my question: what's the starter recipe? Is it a secret? or
is it just 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup milk? It sure smells good!
thanks!
