    Daddy's Sourdough Apricot Walnut Bread Vegan Yield: 1 loaf 1 cup Starter 1 1/2 cup Water
    23/2 cup Oil
    24/2 cup Sugar 12 Apricots (dried), diced
    25/4 cup Walnuts, coarsely chopped 2 cup Whole wheat flour 4 cup Bread flour, bromated 1 tsp Salt

    Feed starter 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup water and 1 T instant potato flakes once a week, stirring well.
    Let mixture sit in uncovered container all day to feed and grow. After 8 - 10 hours, remove 1 cup of
    starter to bake bread; return remainder of starter to refrigerator in loosely covered container.
    Combine starter, water, oil, sugar and apricots and mix well. Add walnuts and the whole wheat flour;
    blend together with a whisk. Add 2 cups of the bread flour and mix again. Add the last 2 cups of the
    bread flour, combined with the salt, and mix again. The dough will be sticky and a little stiff. Put
    the dough in a greased (or sprayed with Pam) bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Let rise until
    doubled in bulk. Punch down and divide into three equal pieces. Put each piece into a greased loaf
    pan and let rise until they reach the tops of the pans. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes or
    until browned and pulling away from the sides of the pans.

    You can substitute white corn syrup for part or all of the oil; the bread might cook more quickly
    and brown too soon if not watched carefully. Can also substitute 1/4 cup oatmeal for 1/4 cup flour.

    * Daddy speeds up the process; he feeds the starter and then puts it into a hot water bath for about
    an hour. While the starter sits in its bath, he mixes his ingredients for the bread. He uses 1 cup
    of the starter and lets the remainder sit outside for several hours. He makes his dough and puts
    it in a hot water bath to rise. When he punches it down, he puts the pans over a hot water bath to
    rise. He accomplishes the entire process in one day instead of two days.
