Healthier Version Of Amish Friendship Bread

Ingredients

    Important preparation tips:
    § Do NOT use a metal spoon or bowl for mixing
    § Do not refrigerate
    § If air gets in bag; let it out
    § It is normal for batter to thicken, bubble and ferment

    Day 1: You receive fermented batter in a one-gallon Ziploc bag. Do nothing; just place the bag on the kitchen counter.

    Day 2-5: Squeeze the bag several times.

    Day 6: Add 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup soy milk. Squeeze the bag several times to mix.

    Day 7-9: Squeeze the bag several times.

    Day 10: In a large glass or plastic (non-metallic) bowl, combine the batter with 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup soy milk. Mix with wooden or plastic spoon. Pour four 1-cup starters into three or four one-gallon Ziplock bags. Give these starters away to family or friends with a copy of these instructions.

    Bread:
    To the remaining batter (which should be approximately 1 cup) in the bowl add:

    1/2 cup canola oil
    1/2 cup applesauce
    (or use 1 cup of applesauce instead)
    1 tsp vanilla
    1 ½ tsp baking powder
    2 cups flour
    ½ tsp baking soda
    2 tsp cinnamon
    1 tsp cloves (optional, depending on flavor of pudding used)
    1 cup sugar
    3 large eggs
    ½ tsp salt
    ½ cup soy milk (You can use chocolate soy milk with chocolate pudding for more chocolate flavor)
    1 large (or 2 small) box of instant pudding (regular or sugar-free). (Try banana cream pudding, butterscotch, white chocolate, pistachio, or chocolate)
    2 cups nuts, raisins, chocolate chips, etc. (optional)
