Amish Friendship Bread variations
Various ways with the starter from a newsgroup.
Chocolate Variations
Note: these variations require the basic Amish Friendship Bread batter
Robin Sandwick, Charlotte, NC
Replace the vanilla pudding with chocolate and add 1/2 cup each of
chocolate chips and coconut. I use small (about 1 cup size) bundt pans and bake
for 45 - 50 minutes
Becky Stathos
Instead of using two loaf pans, I bake it in a bundt pan. Another
favorite is to use chocolate instant pudding, and add pecans, chocolate chips and
coconut. Let your imagination and taste buds guide you.

Here's one we came up with ourselves .... Substitute almond ALMOND
flavoring (NOT Imitation) for the vanilla flavoring... substitute WHITE
CHOCOLATE pudding For the vanilla pudding....`

My variation for the Friendship Bread is a chocolate one, but I use
1/4 cup cocoa, or even a little more (I prefer Hershey's European Chocolate), and
either the vanilla or chocolate pudding can be used. I reduce the cinnamon to
half (1 teaspoon). Everyone that tastes it thinks it is outstanding. The
cinnamon gives it an even better taste than just using chocolate alone.

1 to 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips - this is great if you put the
chocolate chips in a bowl and shake 1/2 teaspoon extra cinnamon to coat them. This is very
popular. 1 to 1 1/2 cup chocolate chips and orange zest to taste.
SA Brown
I substitute chocolate pudding for the vanilla and add 1 cup of
chocolate chips for an awesome Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bread. My friends beg for it! I
even had a restaurant ask me to bake it for them. Try it, you'll like it!
Banana and Zucchini Bread Variations
Note: these variations require the basic Amish Friendship Bread batter
Robin Sandwick, Charlotte, NC
Use banana cream pie pudding and two mashed bananas. I have also
added 1/4 cup of chocolate chip to this on occasion. I use the small bundt pans and
bake for about 40 - 50 minutes.
Jean M. French
For banana bread, I substitute banana cream pudding mix and a mashed
banana, and omit the cinnamon.
Robin Sandwick, Charlotte, NC
Add 1 cup of grated zucchini. Make sure you squeeze out the excess
liquid. bake for about 75 minutes but start checking after 50 minutes.

Carol Williamson Ontario, Canada
Carol loves to make Friendship Bread with dried apples and caramel
instant pudding (makes it like caramel apples).
Sandy Moffet, Olympia WA
Last night I tried 3/4 cup white chocolate chips, 3/4 cup macadamia
nuts and used cheesecake pudding. Delicious!!!
Marilyn Di Palma from Sedona, AZ
Substitute 2 tablespoons molasses for equal amount of sugar and add
spices to make gingerbread.
Becky Stathos
I like to throw in a box of chopped dates and a cup of chopped
pecans. Then, instead of using two loaf pans, I bake it in a bundt pan. Let your
imagination and taste buds guide you.
Deborah Andrews, Newberry Springs, CA

pistachio pudding (instead of vanilla). Very yummy.
