I am still experimenting with the Amish starter but I tweaked this recipe and made it an herbed dinner bread. I used 1 cup of starter. I needed to reduce the calories so I reduced the oil to 1/2 and added 1 cup of milk. I used 1/2 cup Splenda. I left out the any pudding, the vanilla and cinnamon. Instead I added 1 cup of chopped onions and 1 tablespoon each of dried basil and oregano and 1/2 teaspoon of dill. I added the salt, soda and powder. I poured in the 2 loaf pans and then put about 1/4 cup of shreaded cheese in each and stirred it just a bit to mix. I then baked for 50 minutes @ 325. It did flatten a bit but it was wonderful. It was a filling herb cake-like bread. Served with homemade chicken soup. Tasty and different!

Wonderful and tasted great! I added candied fruit and used brown sugar splenda blend and splenda. Next time, chocolate pudding and candied cherries!
