I made it many years ago when everyone was passing the starter around.  It was terrible - my kids would not even eat it and they ate everything!

@elizabethl123  Oh my goodness! We used to make this when we were in college. I had totally forgotten about it!

Re: AMISH FRIENDSHIP BREAD

[ Edited ]

I used to have the starter and made bread from it.  It was called Herman back then.. It made the best bread I've ever had in my life..  I had to stop making it and let the starter go because I was gaining too much weight from eating it...  But boy was it good..  This was  back in the 80's.

 

After typing all of the above, I don't know if what I made ('HERMAN')  was AMISH Friendship bread or not... The Amish bread may be different from the starter I had...
