Friendship Bread is a sweet sourdough bread. Because it is sourdough, do not use any metal spoons or bowls when mixing. Do not refrigerate; just let it sit out on the counter. Dough will bubble and ferment. Let the air out when it accumulates in the bag.
Day 1: You get the starter batter. Do nothing (other than let out excess air).
Day 2, 3, 4, 5: Mush the bag and let out excess air (it will bubble and ferment).
Day 6: Add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk. Mix by mushing the bag. It will be lumpy.
Day 7, 8, 9: Mush the bag and let out excess air.
Day 10: MIXING DAY! In a large, non-metal bowl mix the batter from the bag with 1 1/2 cups flour, 1 1/2 cups milk, 1 1/2 cups sugar. Stir thoroughly with non-metal spoon. Measure out four 1 cup starters. Put starters in clean gallon-size Ziploc bags. Keep one starter for yourself, and give the others to three friends along with a copy of these instructions.
Now to make the bread! To the remaining batter add:
1 1/2 cup sugar, divided
2 1/2 tsp cinnamon, divided
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 large (or 2 small) boxes instant vanilla pudding
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup oil
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix 1 cup sugar and 1tsp cinnamon with remaining ingredients thoroughly. Grease two large loaf pans. Mix remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon and sprinkle on bottom and sides of pan (saving some for the top of the bread). Place batter in loaf pans. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake for 1 hour. Cool for 10 minutes and remove from pans. Enjoy!
