Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Apple and brandied-prune coffee cake

    • hillsboroks on July 26, 2022

      This is a lovely coffee cake that I realized as I started making it is really just a fancier version of the German Raw Apple Cake recipe I got years ago from my mom. Instead of canola oil this cake has melted butter. Then there are the extra steps for mixing everything together, the brandied prunes and lemon zest and powdered sugar on top that make this cake a real tastebud showstopper. We’ve always loved the German Raw Apple Cake but this cake is just fabulous.

  • Pistachio shortbread cookies

    • Astrid5555 on December 07, 2020

      These cookies are deliciously crumbly, meltingly tender, buttery and so quick to make!

Publishers Text

Leslie Mackie opened Macrina Bakery & Café in Seattle in 1993 after working with Lydia Shire & Susan Regis in Boston and as head baker at Seattle's Grand Central Bakery. She was among the first wave of Americans experimenting with recipes from European master bakers and a long, slow fermentation process. Mackie rediscovered the craft's traditional, almost spiritual importance. "In France, bakers are revered because bread is such a central part of the family and the community," she explains.

This new book has more of Mackie's irresistible, artisanal breads, including flatbreads and an emphasis on traditional Italian breads. The reader will also find cakes, cookies, pies, and other sweets and savories that devoted customers love. Mackie is deeply rooted in the Puget

Sound community and treasures the relationships she has with customers, employees, and producers. Stories of some of her favorite people are sprinkled throughout the book.
