A friend lent me this book three months ago and I kept making excuses for not returning it. In the end, she came for lunch, and feeling guilty I thought I would just write out my favourite recipes, and ones I wanted to try ... an hour later and I was still writing! She came for lunch (I served Corny Bread, my favourite so far) and during dessert I was STILL writing. She felt so bad, she told me to keep it longer. She also suggested I tried Amazon, and here I am and have ordered all the books in the series, plus copies for some of my friends. This is the best Bread Machine Cookbook. It is simple, with no uneccesary information. The joy of Bread Machines is that once you have done a couple of recipes from your Instruction book you can cook anything and don't need to be told the same information over and over again. I love every recipe I have tried so far from this book. Everyone with a bread machine should have one!

This book has a great section on sourdough breads that I have used again and again. The author provides an accurate description of each bread with suggestions of menu accompaniments. I would consider this author an expert on bread machine breads! And so easy to follow.

I checked this book out of my public library and cried when it needed to be returned! I absolutely loved it. I tried many of the recipes and found all to be wonderful. The 4 star rating is due to the directions not always being super clear. The book tends to deal on the level of one having had experience with a bread machine. Highy recommended!

This book has a whole section on calzones, pizzas, and hand tossed breads which is my favorite! Everything I have made turns out WONDERFULLY!!

This is an AWESOME cookbook, I love the way the recipes are listed in the book, very easy to follow. The ingredients are listed in order to how they should be placed in the machine, there are instructions for 1, 1/2, and 2 lb loaves. The print is large which also makes the recipes easy to follow. I own her whole series of BM cookbooks because I like them so much!! Great variety also--if I have a certain ingredient that I want to use up in my cupboard, 9 times out of 10 I can find a recipe for bread that I can use it in!! Can't say enough good things about this cookbook!!

This is my second copy of this book because I wore out the first one. Over the years, I've tried many of these recipes and have been very pleased. I have used them with or witbout my bread machine, so they are very adaptable.
