I posted this before but some don't know how to get to my archives. I was going to just post it on my facebook page but for some reason the notes are not publishing on there today.
This is tried and true..I have made it many times!

Amish Friendship Bread Directions
Important: Do NOT use any type of metal spoon or bowl for mixing. Do NOT refrigerate. If air gets in the bad, let it out. It IS normal for the batter to rise and ferment. The date lines below ccan be used to help keep track of the date or day you are at in the process.
¨ Day 1- Do nothing, this is the day you receive the bag, unless told otherwise.
¨ Day 2- Mush the bag
¨ Day 3- Mush the bag
¨ Day 4- Mush the bag
¨ Day 5- Mush the bag
¨ Day 6-Add to the bag: 1 c flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk and mush the bag
¨ Day 7- Mush the bag
¨ Day 8- Mush the bag
¨ Day 9- Mush the bag
¨ Day 10- Mix and divide the starter. Directions below.
Dividing directions: Pour the entire contents of the bag into a non-meal bowl. Add 1½ cups flour, 1½ cups sugar and 1½ cups milk. Mix. Then measure 1 cup of the batter into each of four Ziploc bags. Keep one for yourself and give the other 3 starter bags away with a copy of the recipe instructions.
Note: Starter should be passed to a friend on the 10th day. Be certain to tell the recipient what day the bag is at when you present it to her. If you keep one starter yourself, you will be baking every 10 days.
This bread makes a great gift.
Baking Directions: To the remaining batter in the bowl add:
3 eggs 1 cup sugar ½ tsp salt
1 c oil 2 tsp cinnamon 2 c flour
½ c milk 1½ tsp baking powder 1 large or 2 small boxes instant vanilla pudding
½ tsp vanilla ½ tsp baking soda
Preheat oven to 325°. Grease two large loaf pans. Mix together and additional ½ c sugar and 1½ tsp cinnamon. Dust greased pans with half of this mixture. Pour the batter evenly into the pans and sprinkle remaining sugar on top of the batter. Bake for 1 hour. Cool until bread loosens from the pan evenly (about 10 min). Turn over onto serving dish. Serve warm or fool.
Options: Add 1 cup chopped nuts, raisins or chocolate chips. You can also use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla if you prefer. ( Its really good with banana and walnuts)
If the starter turns green or gets an awful smell discard and start over.
It should have a beer like smell, that is normal.
