Starter Free Friendship Bread

Starter Free Friendship Bread

Have you ever been given one of those yeast starters for friendship bread? I have, and its one of my favorite breads to make and give away as a gift.  I was talking with a friend the other day about getting a starter bag going to give away, but it really is a pain to make, and who wants to wait 10 days to eat this yummy bread?  So I did some research, like any good lawyer would do.  I found a recipe here that is made without the starter.  I decided to give it a try. I made mine in a bunt pan because it calls for 2 loaf pans and I only have one.  The final product, is even better (in my humble opinion) than the one made from the yeast starter.  Make it today (because you don't have to wait 10 days), you wont regret it!
I put brown sugar in the pan before I baked it so it would have a nice crispy sugar crust.
Isn't it pretty?
