How to Make Amish Friendship Bread
- Day 1: In a large bowl, combine starter, 1 cup of flour, and 1 cup of milk. Stir well to combine.
- Day 1: Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for 24 hours.
- Day 2: Remove 1 cup of the mixture and place into a separate container. This is your 'starter' for the next batch. (Share it with friends!)
- Day 2: Add 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs, 1 tsp of baking soda, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the remaining mixture. Stir well.
- Day 2: Add 1 cup of melted butter, 1 cup of raisins (optional). Mix well.
- Day 2: Pour batter into a well-greased muffin pan, or a loaf pan. If using a muffin pan, only fill each cup 2/3 full.
- Day 2: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Muffins will bake faster (about 20-25 minutes).
- Day 2: Let cool completely before serving or storing.
