Kitchen Notes
The original Amish Friendship Bread recipe works perfectly for the bread machine. Bread machine flour was not used in this recipe. Various machines may have slightly different results (ours was more of a rectangular, rather than square, setting and had more height than width). If you're finding that your bread is not baked in the middle, make sure you're using the sweet bread/cake setting, choose a medium crust, and/or cut the recipe in half.
From Becky T: "I just made the Garlic Onion AFB in my bread machine this morning and it came out wonderful. I layered the ingredients as stated in the recipe (no pudding). Set the machine to quick bread setting. About 30 minutes after starting I added the onions to the top for baking. After the quick bread setting went off I set the timer for 30 more minutes to cook because the bread did not look done on the top. This smelled wonderful while it was baking and tasted so good. I have now hidden the bread (after sneaking a piece) until dinnertime so that it does not get eaten by my boys (as they usually eat all the friendship breads I make within hours of making)! We will be eating it with homemade lasagna. I can’t wait to experience with the other breads in my bread machine (as this is the first I have tried using the bread machine)!"
