This is in response to the post – "Herman Cake", 1975 by TanglimaraTrippin.
In the late 70s I obtained copies of a newspaper story about Herman from our local County Extension Office. It includes three recipes to start the starter and recipes for Herman Coffee Cake, Herman Orange Cinnamon Sourdough Rolls, Herman Hot Rolls, Herman Pancakes, Herman Carrot Cake, Herman Pizza Crust and Herman Sourdough Bread.
My kids loved the pancakes the most of all the Herman recipes. Use a large jar for your starter. It can get out of hand.

Thanks!
I remember having a Herman , or Amish friendship bread starter sitting on my kitchen counter.
It did make good loaves of delicious bread, depending on what you mixed in before baking.
Gosh, everybody at work was passing the recipe around. Good memory!
