    Out of the many cookbooks I have used, this one stands out as one of the best. I have made quite a few recipes from it and they all turned out well. His directions are excellent and the flavor combinations are outstanding. My copy is full of notes such as "really, really good" (Spiced Cornmeal Shortbread), "even better than he says" (Cranberry Maple-Pecan Sticky Buns) and "great!" (Scotch Oatmeal Christmas Bread and the Peaches and Cream Pie). The Praline Sandies are my very favorite cookie ever. Also outstanding is the Peaches and Cream Pie.

Publishers Text

Ken Haedrich's creative, delicious, and easy-to-follow recipes celebrate the essence of country baking -- simplicity, freshness, and regional flavors. Store-bought breads will be history when bakers learn the simple steps for making Farm-Style Whole Wheat Bread and Soft Oatmeal Sandwich Bread. Mornings are special with Toasted Almond Pear Muffins, and coffee time is paradise with a warm slice of Pecan Streusel Coffee Cake. Big Broccoli Calzones and Deep-Dish Sausage and Shrimp Pie make hearty meals -- but remember to leave room for a mouthwatering dessert such as Peaches and Cream Pie, Maple Pear Crisp, or Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake.
