Amish Friendship Bread (Original Starter Recipe)

I had received a starter, for the Amish Friendship Bread, from a friend many years ago. It wasn't but a few months when I used up and gave away all my starter. Another friend of mine tried to replicate the starter, with no availe, and not knowing what the recipe was. I was so excited when I came across this recipe!!! The Amish Friendship Bread is wonderful! I gave a loaf of the bread along with a starter as small gifts to different friends and they all enjoyed it very much! Mickey
