DAY 10! I get to bake and share. So, I baked one starter, froze another starter, placed one in refrigerator to bake this week, and shared only one starter. One starter made two loaves of bread. I used the recipe below with no add-ins for one loaf and for the second loaf I added two mushed bananas and one cup chocolate chips. The chocolate bananas was my favorite.
