Kitchen Tips
Omit the chocolate chips for a less calorie version. If you want a smooth top bread don’t add anything to the top before baking. If you want a crackly top, sprinkle a light layer of sugar before baking.

Delicious!
Yummy! Extra good with 1 cup of walnuts added.
I am so thrilled to find your site!!!
I needed some new ideas for the breads….I have some ready to bake today…
I switched out the vanilla pudding for chocolate pudding and also added about 1 t. unsweetened cocoa powder for more color. Made mini muffins, which all had nice big muffin tops. They were wonderful!
Great, Cynthia! Thanks for telling us about your changes. We’ll add your tips to the Kitchen Notes.
Is this supposed to make 1 or 2 loaves?
This says 18 muffins but compared to the reg amish bread recipe, that makes 2 loaves.
Hi Aracely
Yes it will make 2 loaves of bread or 18-24 muffins. Enjoy!
Yes it makes 2 loaves as well as muffins.

Hi Gina,
Not the time is decreased to 20-30 minutes for muffins/cupcakes. Check our lemon muffins for a good example http://www.friendshipbreadkitchen.com/pantry/lemon-afb-muffins
