	* Exported from MasterCook * Flax and Pumpernickel Loaf Recipe By : Serving Size : 2 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 8-10 Oct 2005 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 1/2 cups warm water 2 tablespoons honey 2 teaspoons dry yeast 2/3 cup milled flax 2/3 cup pumpernickel 4 cups White wheat flour 1 tablespoon salt 2/3 cup all purpose flour Pour the water into a mixing bowl and stir in the honey and yeast. After the yeast has proofed, stir in the flax, pumpernickel and one cup of the whole wheat flour. Let this sponge work overnight or all day. Stir in the salt, and enough of the remaining whole wheat flour to make a good dough. Turn it out onto a flour covered surface and knead for 4 to 5 minutes. It will be somewhat sticky but use only enough more flour to keep it from sticking to you or the kneading surface. Give the dough a rest while you clean out and grease your bowl. Continue kneading another 2 or 3 minutes or until it's as smooth and springy as a whole wheat dough can be. Place the dough in the bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in bulk. Knock the dough down, shape and place in a 4 1/2 x 8 1/2-inch loaf pan. Let rise until it domes over the top of the pan. Place in a preheated 400F. oven, bake for 15 minutes. Turn the temperature down to 350F. and continue baking for a further 20 to 25 minutes. Turn out and cool on a rack.

Bobbie's Note: This was very good, but I used slightly fewer noodles than called for and I think there still were too many. About 6 1/2 ounces would be about right.

In a small bowl, make a mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Prepare two loaf pans, one Bundt pan or a 9x13-inch baking dish by greasing the pans and coating with the cinnamon-sugar mixture, reserving some for topping. (Note: Tin loaf pans are excellent for making Friendship Bread.) Set aside. Combine oil, eggs, 1/2 cup milk, and vanilla in a large glass or nonmetal bowl, mixing well. Add 2 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, pudding, and raisins to egg mixture; do not mix. In separate medium glass or nonmetal bowl, using wooden spoon, mix together 1 cup flour and 1 cup sugar. Gradually add 1 cup milk, keeping mixture smooth. Add Amish Friendship Bread Starter from container or plastic bag, mixing in gently with a wooden spoon. Add approximately 1 cup of the resulting mixture into the egg/flour/raisin mixture. With a wooden spoon, mix egg/flour/raisin/starter mixture together well. Pour batter into the prepared pans; sprinkle reserved cinnamon sugar mixture on top. Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Do not overbake. Allow to cool in pans. This bread freezes well. Of the remaining new starter mixture, put 1 cup each into three plastic or glass containers or gallon ziplock freezer bags. Keep one starter for yourself and give two starters to friends with the instructions for Amish Friendship Bread Starter (today is Day 1), or make additional batches of Friendship Bread to give away. One batch Friendship Bread makes two loaf pans, one Bundt pan, or one 9X13 cake pan. Variations : Add chopped nuts, dates, or chocolate chips to the batter before baking. For a different flavor, a pudding mix other than vanilla may be used. Note from Bev: The original idea of this unique recipe was to share either starter or baked bread with friends or family. A thoughtful gift!
