Happy Friday!
I was asked to review The Old Farmer's Almanac Everyday Baking cookbook and immediately said 'yes'!
It's a great cookbook, recipes by Ken Haedrich, featuring 118 recipes, baking tips, time-saving advice, step-by-step tips for easy preparation, and beautiful color photos. Cookbook categories include: breakfast baking; quick bread; cookies, bars; sweet pies; crisps, cobblers; cakes for every occasion.
Ken Haedrich developed and personally tested these recipes for Everyday Baking.
Haedrich is a winner of the Julia Child Cookbook Award and author of 11 cookbooks, including Pie, which was named one of the best baking books of the past 25 years by Cooking Light magazine.
If you go to their website, there is a free recipe download.
They sent me two copies: one for me and one for a friend.
I'd rather give one away.
It's really a great little cookbook for the price.
All you have to do to enter is just leave ONE COMMENT telling me if you've ever heard of any of the
farmer's almanac cookbooks.
And which one you have and/or like or want.
REMEMBER: there has to be an email address in your signature line or your comment.

ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of the cookbooks, but the coconut cream pie looks great, that's my husband's favorite!
ReplyDeleteAll the healthy recipes look good but I must admit my eyes went straight to the biscoff gooey butter cake, oh my it looks so good. And really anything with the words; biscoff, gooey, butter or cake has to be good right? emryglenn@yahoo
Oh, biscoff gooey butter cakes! Yes, please!! (That Virginia peanut pie looks mighty tasty too.) :D
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of the Farmer's Almanac Cookbook. My father always bought the Farmer's Almanac every year though. I loved reading it.

ReplyDeleteGosh, silly me; I thought Farmer's Almanacs were just for gardening!
ReplyDeleteMy father in law gets the almanac for the weather every year for Christmas, but I didn't know they did baking!!

ReplyDeleteI did not know about the cook books...very cool!
ReplyDeletePacholke21@gmail.com
I've heard of the Almanac cook books, but I've never gotten one.
ReplyDeletetooloony@gmail.com
I've never heard of them until now, but the pie one sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI was unaware of the cookbooks, too, but after researching, they have a "Garden Fresh" version that interests me! :)
ReplyDeleteVery Cool,,, :-/
ReplyDeleteI see myself starting at page 1 and not stopping until the last ingredient of the last page.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they made cookbooks! I only think about the farmer's almanac when it comes to weather :-) The everyday cooking one looks cool to me, but the garden fresh one would be nice too! (rtpalmieri@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteNever heard of it but wow really awesome ty
ReplyDeleteI have heard of them and maybe even seen one at a bookstore. My impression always was that they are great recipes, using more ingredients that one would normally have on hand. I have never owned one but would sure like to!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they did cookbooks...so cool!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of the cookbooks, but those recipes look amazing! So glad Jenni (PCO) sent me to check you out, and you for giving people the opportunity to receive a free cookbook! :) cnewborn1029@charter.net
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that Farmer's Almanac does cookbooks. Awesome!
