AFB Recipe from King Arthur

• 2/3 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 cup Sugar (I used 1/2 cup)
  
• 3 Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla
• 2 cups Friendship starter
• 1-½ to 2 cups All-Purpose flour (they prefer the King Arthur brand)
• 1-½ teaspoons Cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• 1-½ teaspoons Baking soda
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• ½ teaspoon Salt

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla and beat until light. Add the starter and beat until smooth. Blend the dry ingredients together and fold into the starter mixture. Pour into a greased Bundt pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.

Variations:

* Just before baking, fold in up to 2 cups of chopped nuts, diced apple or applesauce, raisins or whatever seems appropriate.
* For a chocolate version, substitute 1/2 cup cocoa powder for the cinnamon and nutmeg and add any other ingredients at your own discretion. Some possibilities that come to mind are chocolate chips, chopped nuts, minced orange peel and rum or mint extract.
