Nearly two weeks ago I was given Herman the German Friendship cake starter.....
I have lovingly stirred and fed him for the last ten days.....
The time then came to choose what I was going to do with him....
I split him 4 ways.....shared him with my sisters....kept one to keep growing...
and then I baked one....
I decided on APPLE AND CINNAMON
The mixture made two loaves....
The big taste test.....
OH YUM.....it was so delicious.....hot from the oven......even cold the next day for a family afternoon tea......
I am so glad I have kept another batch to grow...this didn't last very long so in another ten days I can bake some more....
You have my memory bank stirring. I am pretty sure either my mum or nana had a similar cake that they split up and gifted when I was a child.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a gift that keeps giving.

ReplyDeletevery intrigued to know what you have to do to "feed him"
ReplyDeleteYummo though.
