From James Beard Award-winning and NYT best-selling author Dorie Greenspan, a baking book of more than 150 exciting recipes
Say “Dorie Greenspan” and think baking. The renowned author of thirteen cookbooks and winner of five James Beard and two IACP awards offers a collection that celebrates the sweet, the savory, and the simple. Every recipe is signature Dorie: easy—beginners can ace every technique in this book—and accessible, made with everyday ingredients. Are there surprises? Of course! You’ll find ingenious twists like Berry Biscuits. Footlong cheese sticks made with cream puff dough. Apple pie with browned butter spiced like warm mulled cider. A s’mores ice cream cake with velvety chocolate sauce, salty peanuts, and toasted marshmallows. It’s a book of simple yet sophisticated baking. The chapters are classic: Breakfast Stuff • Cakes • Cookies • Pies, Tarts, Cobblers and Crisps • Two Perfect Little Pastries • Salty Side Up. The recipes are unexpected. And there are “Sweethearts” throughout, mini collections of Dorie’s all-time favorites. Don’t miss the meringue Little Marvels or the Double-Decker Caramel Cake. Like all of Dorie’s recipes, they lend themselves to being remade, refashioned, and riffed on.

❀ Stunning Photos
My only disappointment with the book is that not all of the recipes have an accompanying photo. The photos that are included are really stunning, however, I just wish there had been more of them. That being said, I am very inspired by Baking With Dorie to start some fall baking.
There seems to be a good mix of recipes for accomplished or novive bakers. Now I’d find odd too the lack of photography with a recipe!
I love a great photo that gives me an idea of what the finished product will look like!
I saw the cover of this and I’m actually already drooling 😂

That’s what drew me in, too!
This cookbook would bring way too much temptation with it at my house!
Ha! I know exactly what you mean! I have some recipes saved for later this year. 😉
I’ve always been intimidated by baking, so it’s nice that this appeals to all skillsets.
I love how this one has such a great approach!
too bad not enough photos
I love cookbooks and that chocolate cake on the cover looks spectacular.
