amish friendship bread - day 10!!!

Day 10 is here!!! Time to bake!

Added 1 c. sugar, 1 c. milk & 1 c. flour... Mixed and separated -

1 c. into a ziplock - four times... (ie four ziplock bags contain 1 cup of mix!)

Meanwhile... buttered bread pan and coated with sugar/cinnamon mixture!

yum! you all know I LUV my cinnamon!

To remaining mix, added the stuff... eggs, cinnamon, oil, vanilla puddin' mix, etc...

Used my wooden spoon (and plastic bowl) to mix it all together!

Into the oven it went!

A big guy and a lil' guy!

This came out soooooo moist! I was a bit worried that it would be dense and heavy...

But it came out so good!

Gave the lil' guy to my lil' niece, along with her own starter bag and instructions...

and asked her to invite us in 10 days to taste what she's baked!

And kept big guy for us!

amish friendship bread (starter)

I thought this would be a fun project for my lil niece, who's all about the baking right now!

My plan is to make the bread on day 10 and give her some, along with her own bag, so she can taste it and make her own (after 10 days)!

I think she'll get a kick out of squish-squish-squishing the bag!Since I tossed the starter that my good friend Sho passed on to me, I had to make my own "starter"...

I got this starter recipe off Allrecipes.com.

It was the same as many other starters I'd found online (like momswhothink.com),

so I went with it.

Used a wooden spoon and plastic bowls (no metal allowed here!).

Put it in a Ziplock and wrote my days on there.

I goofed on that as, it's supposed to be Day 6 that I add stuff to the bag (not day 5).

I later scratched that out and wrote over it. ;-)
