Ingredients

3 eggs
1 cup Amish Friendship Bread Starter
1 cup oil
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (I always add a little extra splash)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups flour
1-2 small boxes instant cheesecake pudding
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 can cherry pie filling

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325° F (165° C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add ingredients as listed.
  3. Grease 2 large loaf pans.
  4. Dust the greased pans with granulated sugar.
  5. Pour the batter evenly into loaf pans. Place a few cherries on top!
  6. Bake for 1 hour, or until the bread loosens evenly from the sides and a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  7. ENJOY!

Kitchen Notes

Make sure the cream cheese is soft enough to blend easily into the batter. This would also work well with a strawberry filling!

    What size cheesecake pudding boxes? Sounds delicious!

    • Susan says:

      Small size boxes, Judy. I don’t think they sell the cheesecake in large, if so, you could use one large.

    Hi, can you tell me as to where I might be able to find instant “cheesecake” pudding? I’m not familiar with this flavor (& if you know the brand, that would be a big help) and I’d love to make this!
    Thanks for your time!

    Can I use Vanilla Pudding and still have the cheesecake flaver for this recipe?
