Thank you thank you thank you! I searched for the starter recipe before but couldn’t find it, so again, thank you! When I had this before, I experimented with different types of pudding, and that seemed to be all that was needed to make different flavors. The chocolate pudding variation was the best in my book! I froze mine and a few times just baked extra and froze it because I ran out of people to give it to, but now that I am on the Freecycle network I will have more people to share with

Do you use the entire recipe with pudding mix and all to make the pancakes or do you use the starter to make pancakes? Details please?

I LOVE THIS BREAD! My mom actually was able to carry a starter to me since I live overseas. What I learned from her was that you can still divide it into the little bags to have starters, and freeze it. You can defrost it on the counter and consider that Day 1 again….or bake it that day. Experiment with it yourself. We have…it still works out great.

I had never heard of this. My husband was given a starter and a finished loaf to try. The smell of the starter was so nasty, I had smelled it sitting there before he had told me the story of what it was and how to do it. If our friend hadn’t given us a sample loaf I don’t know if I would have done the starter. You don’t think it will be good, but it is AMAZING!!!!! Thanks for posting the starter. Now if I stop making it (which I am sure will happen) I can make a starter and start up again. I am thinking of making these for Christmas gifts…..Will take awhile to get the loaves baked. Only ? I have is The size of the pans is not specified…It just says 2 medium pans for when you bake them…I am worried I will use wrong size pans, and mess it up (over cook it or something.) Any suggestions welcome.

That’s a wonderful and unique idea, I usually just give whole loaves of tasty bread to various friends but this will make a nice change.

I myself ended up with way to much. I do love the Bread so much. I have found if you have the time to bake. Do that and give to friends then they do not have to babysit the bag. I think that is half the fun, Mash Baby Mash.

we have run out of people that like to babysit gooey bags what i discovered was that the stuff that is left is equal to 2 cups, so instead of making 4 bags, we now make 2 (one for us, and one for someone else) and then 2 cups go in a bowl for preparation to make loaves, and what is left stays and is made into loaves. this recipe is so yummy we easily are able to take care of the 4 loaves, and when it does slow down, one of us takes a loaf to work to share with coworkers. hope this helps!

I would also be interested in the last comment, not sure how to translate it?
