Amish Friendship Bread
We’ve been sharing recipes for bread using ‘starters’ often called ‘friendship starters.’ It started with a request from Nicole for information about bread starters that she remembered her mom talking about.
We have had many readers share what they know about friendship starters along with recipes to use them. I am moving a few recipes from the comments section to this recipe section just to make them easier to find.
This recipe was submitted by Ann Fenner, along with a recipe to make the starter. Click on the following link to get Ann’s recipe for the starter:
