Multigrain Bread for Abm (Amish Friendship Starter)

Submitted by januarybride

"I am always making up new recipes to use up my endless supply of Amish Friendship Bread Starter. This is a nice and hearty multigrain bread. I actually used 1/2 cup of Katzen's recipe #384672. . .that being said, I have written this recipe assuming you don't have a bucket of it in the pantry (as I do). Also feel free to sub out any of the grains for what you have on hand, just make sure it totals 8 T (i.e. rolled oats, quinoa, or increase amounts of the other ingredients). This makes about a 2 lb loaf."
