The clean and simple format makes this beautifully designed book easy to read and use, and it's packed with great recipes. A very useful feature, especially for new bread bakers, is the Favorite Recipes log at the back of the book, and the index is keyed to recipe ingredients. A useful glossary is also provided. Every recipe includes nutrition facts per slice, and helpful text boxes with facts, suggestions, and tips are sprinkled throughout the book. These are also indexed for easy reference. Additional sections on recipe success, trouble shooting, and flavored butter and spreads are provided. This book comes as close to a "complete guide" to bread machine baking as any I've seen.

A WONDERFUL Book! November 26, 2001
By A Customer
I also LOVE this book. I think this is an absolute must have if you own a bread machine. I have a Breadman 2-lb. bread machine and these recipes turn out with very little or no adjustment at all. Usually when I bake from a bread machine cookbook I make the bread once to see how it tastes, make the appropriate adjustments to make it better and bake it again. The first time I tried one of these recipes I was extremely pleased at how wonderful it turned out with no adjustments at all. I always take goodies I make to work and they raved about everything I ever tried from this book. The recipes for various butters/spreads to go with the breads are also delicious. You can't go wrong with this book.

I borrowed this book from a friend so often that I needed to get it for myself. There are so many different types of breads to try, savory ones for my husband, sweet ones for me. Good recipes for rolls, sandwich breads, breakfast breads, pizza dough, pretzels. The recipes look like they call for too little yeast, but we follow every recipe to the letter and each one has come out perfectly. There are beautiful pictures with almost all recipes and suggestions on what topping or spreads to eat with the breads. There are recipes for herb butters, cinnamon butters, yogurt spreads, cheese spreads, that all go perfectly with the accompaning bread. All recipes have been tested (and ingredients scaled) for both 1.5 and 2 pound loaves so you can choose what works best for your machine. This is the only cookbook I'll ever need to go with my bread machine (Breadman Ultimate)!
