• Place starter in refrigerator and store there for Days 2 through 10. Consider this (or the day you receive the starter) as Day 1 of the cycle.
• DIRECTIONS TO ACCOMPANY A STARTER BAG: Day 1: Do nothing. Day 2: Mash bag. Day 3: Mash bag. Day 4: Mash bag. Day 5: Mash bag. Day 6: To bag, add 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup cultured buttermilk; seal bag and mash until mixed. Day 7: Mash bag. Day 8: Mash bag. Day 9: Mash bag. Day 10: Follow directions below: Pour entire bag into nonmetal bowl. Add 1 cup flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup cultured buttermilk. Measure out 1 cup of Starter into each of 4 (1-gallon) zipper-topped bags. Keep 1 bag for yourself, and give other bags to 3 friends along with recipe.
• DIRECTIONS TO MAKE TWO LOAVES OF BREAD: Heat oven to 325°F. Spray 2 (9x5-inch) loaf pans with cooking spray. In large bowl, beat contents of 1 bag of Starter, the eggs, butter, buttermilk, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, flour, and pudding mix with whisk until a smooth batter forms.
• Scoop 1 cup batter into small bowl. Add cinnamon; beat with whisk until cinnamon is well mixed into batter. Spoon dollops of cinnamon batter back into large bowl with vanilla batter. With fork, gently swirl vanilla and cinnamon batters together. Don't over mix! Two or three swirls should be enough! Pour batter into pans. Sprinkle top of each loaf with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
• Bake 55 to 65 minutes or until bread springs back when touched lightly in center. Cool until bread loosens from sides of pan. Turn breads out onto serving dish or cutting board. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Pancakes Add ingredients of smaller bowl to ingredients of large bowl and mix on medium speed. Spoon batter onto greased griddle.
• 2. Waffles Prepare batter for pancakes except increase oil to 1/4 cup.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine egg, milk and shortening; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened., Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes; cook until the second side is golden brown.

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder& baking soda in a large bowl.
• Add wet ingredients& combine just until moistened.
• Cook batter just as any other pancakes.
• Serve warm with butter& syrup.

Steps:

• Day One: In a large glass jar or bowl, combine 2 cups of the starter with 1 can of the sliced peaches and their juice (each slice chopped into 4 pieces). Add 2 1/2 cups of the white sugar and stir once every day for 10 days. When not stirring mixture, keep it covered with a paper towel, foil, or a loose lid. Let sit at room temperature. Don't refrigerate it or cover it airtight. A pan of water underneath the jar or bowl will keep the ants out.
• Day Ten: Add 1 can of chunk pineapple and its juice. Cut each chunk of pineapple in half. Stir in 1/2 cup of white sugar. Stir once everyday for 10 days. The color should change, and the mixture should foam when stirred.
• Day Twenty: Slice each cherry in half, and stir in. Add 2 1/2 cups of the white sugar. Stir once every day for the final 10 days. The cherries will give the juice back its pinkish color.
• Day Thirty: Drain fruit and reserve it and the liquid. The fruit will be used in the cake. Pour the liquid into 3 glass or ceramic pint jars. One for you to start your next cake, and two for friends. Cake must be started within 3 days after receiving the starter, or you should freeze the starter to use at a later date. Do not use plastic or metal containers to store liquid!
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x13-inch baking pans.
• It's best to mix the two cakes separately. Combine 1 box of the cake mix, 1 box of the instant vanilla pudding, 2/3 cup of the vegetable oil, and 4 of the eggs. Stir, then add 1/2 of the drained reserved fruit from the starter. Stir, then add 1 cup of the golden raisins, 1 cup of the chopped nuts and 1 cup of the coconut. Stir until all ingredients are combined. The batter will be stiff. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan. Repeat for cake number two.
• Bake cakes at in the preheated oven for 55 to 65 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet or heatproof platter ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, butter (or oil), and egg. Add dry ingredients to milk mixture; whisk until just moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).
• Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
• For each pancake, spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter onto skillet, using the back of the spoon to spread batter into a round (you should be able to fit 2 to 3 in a large skillet).
• Cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 12 to 15 pancakes.) Serve warm, with desired toppings.
• BUTTERMILK: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with low-fat buttermilk.

• If batter seems too thick, add more milk 1 Tbsp at a time until desired consistency.
• Preheat griddle pan to med-high, spray with non-stick cooking spray and pour batter onto griddle using 1/4 cup of batter per pancake.
