Customer Reviews

YUM!!!

I have had great success with the recipes from this book. My family especially likes the sweet and fruit breads for breakfast and snacks, like orange marmalade, coconut almond, Mexican chocolate, cinnamon banana oat, and honey lemon. There are some weird flavors (borscht??? watercress-pea??? date with jalapenos???) that you may never be interested in making but so many more delicious creative ideas that you may wish you had more than one bread machine so you won't have to wait 3 hours before you can make another loaf!! I highly recommend this book-- it is fantastic, and as a bonus it is the cheapest cookbook I have ever bought!

These delicious Recipes WORK for me

I've had excellent results using Melissa Clark's book...the bread flavors are really creative and the loaves delicious. I particularly love the golden bread, using golden syrup, which makes the most excellent french toast, and also the potato bread, which is moist and just a little bit sweet. I agree that the book could use an index, but otherwise think it's an excellent tool if you have a bread machine. The person who had trouble must not have been following the directions carefully...

Every bread you could want

I have made quite a few of the breads from this book (my favorite is the Garlic Parmesan) and have generally had wonderful luck. The book shows how many different things can be done with the bread machine. A few of the breads are so-so but it could be due to my tastes. My one complaint is the book needs and index.

Easy to make, yummy recipes

There are so many delicious sounding recipes in this book that I didn't know where to start! First, I made the brioche, was was so much better than the usual bread-machine brioche (it was truly yeasty and buttery and tender).In general, I've had uniformly great results with this book, and recommend it to people with bread machines and a sweet tooth.

Very good Recipes and wide varity of unique ones

This is a very excellent book for the money. This book covers it all and has many many recipes of all different kinds of breads. My favorite one is the Peanut butter oatmeal and honey bread. Melissa Clark has really done her home work and explains the ins and outs of bread making. She gives a brief history and her thoughts on each of the recipes which gives you a special insite on the bread that you are making. A must have book for the first time or experienced bread machine person.
