Keep a bag for yourself and give the other three bags to friends along with a copy of the recipe.
NOTE: If you keep a starter, you will be baking every 10 days. However you can freeze a starter. The cycle begins when the starter is thawed.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease 2 large loaf pans.

Mix in a separate bowl:
½ cup sugar
1 ½ tsp cinnamon
Use half of mixture to dust greased pans.

To the remaining starter in the bowl add:
3 eggs
1 cup of oil (or ½ cup oil & ½ cup applesauce)
½ cup of cold milk
1 cup of sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp vanilla
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
2 cups flour
2 small boxes (or 1 large box) of instant vanilla pudding (can be any flavor you want)
Optional: 1 cup of raisins or chopped nuts

Pour batter into pans. Do not fill past ½ full. Sprinkle remaining sugar and cinnamon over the top. Bake 1 hour. Cool until bread loosens from sides, about 10 minutes. Enjoy!
