Best Bread Machine book ever?

I checked this book out from the library so many times that I figured I should buy it for my collection. The recipes are well written and easy to follow. I love the bagels, pizza dough (which I've made countless times in the lastt 2 years), batarde....

Best Bread Machine Recipes!

I borrowed this book from the library and am so impressed, I want my own copy! It covers everything you could ever want to make with a yeast dough! One of Washburn & Butt's personal favourites - Country Harvest Bread - was a huge hit at a recent ladies luncheon. Today we're trying the Butter Pecan Bagels. Baking one's own bread is very satisfying! I highly recommend this book if you're going to give it a go!

Reliability and Variety in "America's Best..."

I bought 2 bread machine books at the same time. While the other had a much more sophisticated format and general discussion of bread making, this book offers a simple direct format and specific directions (with aside tips occasionally) for a wide variety of bread types. The authors also offer, with good directions, the option of breads mixed in the machine but finished as free-form hearth breads. Of the ten or so breads I have tried, results have been excellent.

AMERICA'S BEST is the Best

When I replaced my 7-yr-old bread machine, the recipes from my collection of best-seller cookbooks didn't work in my new generation machine. Then I tried AMERICA'S BEST. Perfect every time, with no adjustments needed! Since I bake in super-humid Florida and cool crisp New England, recipes have to be absolutely reliable. The Italian Herb Bread has become a family favorite, and the Saffron Currant Bath Buns got rave reviews at our Elizabethan Supper. I am especially happy that AMERICA'S BEST recipes give excellent results with basic grocery-store ingredients, without requiring special (expensive) additives. And I am happiest that they taste good.
