I got my first batch ever of Friendship Bread....I have researched it and it seems it could be kinda mean to give this stuff away to friends. I have heard of people running away when they see you coming with a cup of starter in a large zip lock bag.
As of now, my first run with it has been good and I didn't give any away. On Sunday, I had my first taste of Friendship Bread and wasn't so fond of the orginal recipe. I don't usually follow standard anyway, so I searched for all the recipes I could find and came up with a great way to use most or all of my starter and save one for myself....for 10 days from now.
After you share 3 of the starters with friends you can use up the rest by making my Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake. I opted to make the Coffee Cake and then throw one starter in the freezer, keep one on the counter for 10 days from now and then I made delicious Cranberry Lemon Cinnamon Rolls with the other. Next time (yes, 10 days from now) I am going to use up 2 or 3 of the starters on Cinnamon Rolls, they turned out well. But beware, if you live close by, you may just see me coming with a bag of starter for you:)

oh yum, these delights look so good. I kind of want the food instead of the starter...will you be passing treats around anytime soon for the holidays. ;) Eddie brought a starter for me and I forgot to bring it home...I would take one. =)
An
Just please come toward me with the coffee cake or cranberry rolls!
So you can freeze those starter packs? Never knew...
Yes you can freeze the starter and just thaw it out on the counter and continue with the days.....and Ann, I can give you a starter.
