    List of Ingredients




    Starter:
    1 tablespoon Active Dry Yeast
    2 cups Warm Water -- (110 degrees)
    1 cup Flour
    1 cup Sugar
    1 cup Milk
    Bread:
    1 cup Vegetable Oil
    1 cup Sugar
    2 cups Flour
    3 Eggs
    1 small Vanilla Pudding Mix -- Instant
    1 teaspoon Cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon Salt
    1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
    1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
    1/2 cup Milk
    Cinnamon Sugar:
    1 cup Sugar
    2 tablespoons Cinnamon

    Recipe



    For Starter:
    Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of the warm water
    in a deep glass or plastic container. Stir
    in remaining warm water, flour and sugar.
    Beat until smooth. Cover. (A large glass jar
    or bowl with a tight fitting lid works best
    for this, but a 1/2 gallon zip baggie can
    also be used). Because your first batch of
    starter contains fresh yeast, you can skip
    the next set of directions and go directly
    to the instructions for splitting your start.

    Do not refrigerate! Do not stir with a l
    spoon! The starter requires 10 days for
    fermentation.

    Day 1- Begin or receive starter
    Day 2- Stir with wooden spoon (or squish baggie)
    Day 3- Stir with wooden spoon (or squish baggie)
    Day 4- Stir with wooden spoon (or squish baggie)
    Day 5- Add 1 cup sugar, 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk
    Day 6- Stir with wooden spoon (or squish baggie)
    Day 7- Stir with wooden spoon (or squish baggie)
    Day 8- Do Nothing
    Day 9- Do Nothing
    Day 10- Add 1 cup sugar, 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk

    Put 1 cup of starter in each of three containers.
    Give 2 away to friends and keep one. This will
    begin their Day 1.

    For Bread:

    You will have about 1 cup of batter left (besides
    the 1 cup you have saved for yourself). To the
    remaining batter add vegetable oil, sugar, flour,
    baking powder, baking soda, eggs, milk, vanilla
    pudding mix, cinnamon, and salt. Beat until well
    blended. Add one cup raisins, chocolate chips or
    nuts, if desired. Grease 2 loaf pans well, and
    sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, coating bottom well.
    Turn batter into pans, and sprinkle remaining
    cinnamon sugar onto tops of loaves. Bake at 325F
    degrees for one hour.
