Error in ingredient amounts, Apr 15, 2023 I tried the Hot Cross bun recipe. Following the amounts listed in the recipe yielded a dough with the consistency of a batter. Comparing the amount of liquid in this recipe to other hot cross bun recipes showed that there was considerably too little flour or way too much liquid in this recipe. I added about 9 T. extra of flour and the batter was still too wet. I also tried the brioche recipe and it was also much too wet. Very disappointed in either the recipe tester or the editor.

a southern bread lover, Sep 25, 2023 All bread machines are not created equal, and perhaps that is the reason for the variance in star-quality in the reviews for this book.I have a difficult machine--an upright that does not handle whole grain recipes very well. This book saved the day! I was about to give up on making wholesome, whole-grain breads when a friend passed this on to me. I have not used another book since. I've also found that the more unusual and adventurous recipes the book offers, as well as the more traditional recipes, can easily be tweaked to fit with the ingredients I have on hand or that suit the tastes of my family. If you have daring taste buds and want to learn the ins and outs of your bread machine, this book is for you. I would recommend it to anyone!

The BEST EVER BreadMachine Cookbook, May 1, 2023 I have had this book for nearly eight years and I keep going back to it. No matter how many other books I get THIS IS THE ONE I USE. When my sister got her bread machine I told her she HAD to have this book. The recipes are well written, the varity is incredible, the suggestion for use are true to the bread type and the ingredients are easily found in your regular grocey store. Yet the book covers a wide varity of breads and sweet dough. I LOVE IT.

Excellent book, Apr 6, 2023 I had high anxiety about ordering this book after reading some of the online reviews, but fortunately, every experience I've had with this cookbook has been fabulous. Every recipe turns out a moist, delicious loaf. The recipes that came with my bread machine made much drier bread that went stale quickly. Not so with these recipes. This book calls for ingredients not normally on my shelf, but the results are well worth it. This is fast becoming my favorite cookbook.

Easy to make and excellent variety of recipes, Nov 18, 2022 This book is a tremendous joy to have and use. Since I purchased it I have made a different recipe each week and brought the bread to work to share with my colleagues. If I miss a week they remind me that they are waiting for my "treat". Easy to find ingredients and simple instructions make these recipes a breeze for even the most novice of bakers. The helpful hints in the front of the book are a nice touch! I have not made a loaf that was not spectacular.
