Tropical Friendship Bread

Ingredients:

1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup applesauce (I used Beech-nut Homestyle Cinnamon, Raisins & Pears)
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sourdough starter
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 (3.4 oz) boxes instant coconut cream pudding
1 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1 cup white chocolate chips

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 325F. Grease down whatever molds you intend to use (I filled up 8 mini loaves).

In a large bowl, mix the oil, applesauce, eggs, milk, starter, vanilla, and sugar.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, pudding mix, nuts, and chips. Add this to the liquid mixture and stir thoroughly.

Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake until done. Apparently, this takes at least an hour for regular loaves, and took around 45 minutes for my mini loaves. Cool completely before slicing.
