You can't go wrong with this book November 15, 2007 I love to bake from scratch. I appreciate this collection from Pillsbury because the recipes are kitchen tested and include high altitude adjustments.
Definitely one of the best baking cook books ever! May 16, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Don't even hesitate to add this book to your collection. It is easy to understand, contains plenty of photos to help you see the finished results, and has wonderful gift/substitution/presentation ideas. I cannot tell you how many recipes I have made from this book, and all turned out tasty. Truly a wonderful book, kudos to the editors.
REALLY the best! March 15, 2003 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Wow- this really is the best muffin and quick bread cookbook I have ever seen. The recipes are great and I love that there is nutritional information about each recipe. I started to turn down the corners of the recipes that looked good, until I realized that I was turning down every page. A must-have for anyone who loves to bake.
The muffin man no longer lives in drury lane! November 4, 2002 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Once you have this book the muffin man will live in your lane because the muffins in this book are terrific!!! Muffins for breakfast, scones for lunch, and fast bread for dinner! They taste good no matter when you eat them!! Have a fancy Bed and Breakfast experience every day!! This book is definately worth its weight in muffins! Don't spend all that money on buying muffins - make them yourself with this book and enjoy the supreme tastes!
Don't hesitate! Buy it right now! December 17, 2000 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
Okay, I admit it, I'm a cookbook snob. When this cookbook arrived on my doorstep, I was tempted to leave it there. I figured a book with "Pillsbury" on the cover would be full of unimaginative recipes calling for prepackaged ingredients. Boy, was I wrong! Every muffin recipe I've tried has been moist and delicious and interesting, and the quick breads are fabulous, too. The instructions are clear and straightforward and seem to be aimed at novice bakers (it makes a great gift!). Every recipe has nutritional information, and it's also packed with cute tips and hints on each page. (Stuff like how to substitute lemon juice or vinegar if you're out of buttermilk, or suggested additions, or even directions for hulling strawberries.)
And my fears were unfounded--they don't even mention Pillsbury flour, for Pete's sake. The only even *slightly* iffy thing is that they call for "margarine or butter" in the ingredients lists and then tell you what to do with the "margarine" in the instructions. But maybe that's just for the cholesterol-phobic.
I'll say it again--don't hesitate, buy this book now! And buy another one as a gift for your favorite baker or for someone who's just getting started. They'll be thrilled!
