"I love this bread and I had a craving for it, but didn't want to wait the month it took for the starter to be ready, so, I modified it a bit. It might not be quite as tasty as the original, but it's great if you want it in a hurry! I like to use butterscotch pudding for a different, but really nice flavor! Hope you enjoy!"

The no starter recipe for Amish Friendship Bread called for one small box of vanilla pudding. Can the box of vanilla cook and serve pudding be used as it didn't say instant.

In the Amish Friendship Starter original recipe, calls for raisins and nuts and the batter is much darker. My question is how much raisins and nuts can be added to this no starter recipe. Thank you. I like the idea of using part applesauce for some of the oil and would it be 1/2 applesauce and 1/2 oil??? Was happy to find this recipe as don't like all the pre preparation for the Original Amish Friendship Bread Recipe. Thanks so much and Happy Baking.

I made a few modifications to make it almost fat free and it still turned out awesome! I substituted 1 cup of applesauce for the 1 cup of oil. I also substituted 3/4 cup of egg beaters for the 3 eggs and I also used skim milk and it still turned out very moist and delicious. I used butter flavored Pam on the pan and sprinkled sugar/cinnamon combination in the pan and then on top of the batter before going in the oven. No more starter for me! Thanks!

I've made this for the 5th time and thought I had reviewed it. It's my son-in-law's most requested dessert. He lives across state and my daughter is paying them a visit this week, so I'm sending him another loaf, which he hoards from visitors and keeps it only for himself and family. I add 1 c. nuts and sprinkle the bundt pan with sugar and cinnimon. Thanks for posting.PS: I was given some original Amish friendship bread made with the starter. IMHO, this one is better, and much easier.

Good bread! The texture of this bread wasn't the same as real Amish friendship bread, but it also didn't take 10 days to make! Thanks for a yummy recipe!

This is one of my favorite recipes. I love it even more now that I am 35 weeks pregnant. No waiting for friendship bread? What could be better. Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe. And I think that it is better than the original that requires a starter....

I first tried the original a few months ago and have been begging my MIL for it ever since. I got tired of waiting and went hunting for the recipe myself. I have to say, this is AMAZING! Much less work for sure and tastes every bit as good. I used 1 cup applesauce in place of the oil and left out the nuts, it was delicious!!! THANK YOU FOR SUCH AN AMAZING ADAPTATION!

I am a teacher, and have been married to my high school sweetheart for almost 9 years. I have a niece who is 7, and a nephew who is 1. Also, I have 2 sweet kitties. Sinatra is a bit on the plump side, and Audrey is a petite dainty thing. They both are almost mirror images of each other. <a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/airbornearmywife/joshnatras2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://wmg.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://wmg.photobucket.com/albums/v202/airbornearmywife/1159026847.pbw" height="120" width="400"></embed><a href="http://www.amazingcounter.com"><img border="0" src="http://c8.amazingcounters.com/counter.php?i=1680027&c=5040394" alt="Web Counter"/></a><img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/KiwiDutch/3chefstag1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
