with delicious recipes!
I've tried several of them and they are so good!
Here you'll find everyone's favourites like blueberry, cinnamon and corn; savory muffins (vegetable cheese), with fruits, nuts, a whole chapter with chocolate recipes, another for children, and new flavours for adults.
The book comes with really nice designs, so it makes a great gift as well.
 Nice variety of flavors with so so results April 11, 2002

Mad about Muffins is a wonderful idea for a cookbook and it is very attractive but I think that the author could have found better recipes. The muffins are all very edible but they are not outstanding and the results do not always look "bakeshop pretty". The ingredients called for are simple and most people who bake often will have them on hand. There are many basic recipes (bran, blueberry, corn etc) but there are also some exciting flavor combinations (pumpkin apple, orange pineapple) and not always sweet (some savory ie. Buttermilk Scallion Parsley potato). If you are crazy about muffins then this cookbook is a safe bet but you can find just as good if not better muffin recipes in another baking book that covers alot more categories including muffins.
 Filled with a variety of delicious muffins! October 6, 1999

A terrific book for anyone looking for new and different muffin recipes! All the familiar favorites are there, but you'll also find a fun collection of new recipes; garlic-corn, seafood, mint chocolate chip, and black forest. If you like quick,tasty recipes like these, you'll also like any of the Gooseberry Patch books...filled with yummy recipes & easy how-to's.

This is a wonderful muffin book containing over 100 easy muffin recipes that use common ingredients. Better yet, preparation time is usually 15 minuets or less. Muffin varieties include those with vegetables, fruits, nuts, & chocolate. Breakfast, adult, & international muffins are also included. There are even recipes to please kids and ones taken from traditional cakes. My favorite section includes 9 luscious chocolate muffin recipes including peanut butter chocolate, mocha chocolate chip, & tunnelfudge to name a few. I also enjoyed the Parmesan tomato & sour cream streusel muffins. The book has a country feel to it. It is printed in color on handmade style paper. There are numerous illustrations throughout. My only wish is for more information on ingredients & general preparation.
