A plain, yet flavorful quick bread made with sourdough starter. I found the recipe printed in the Houston Chronicle years ago. To give the bread a kick, you can add fruits and nuts of your choice. This bread feezes well.
Ingredients:
1 cup sourdough starter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix by hand with a wooden spoon until smooth.
3. Pour batter into 2 well-greased and sugared 9X5X2-inch loaf pans.
4. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until done (You can test to see if it is done, by placing a wooden toothpick in the center of the cake, it if comes out dry, it's done).
5. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans.
6. ~NOTE~If desired, add 1 cup chopped nuts and/or fruit such as apples, dates, cranberries, diced apples or raisins to each loaf.
