Preppy Kitchen: Everyday Baking
“John has made a book that’s as exciting for beginners as it is for longtime bakers—a gift for all. It’s packed with the classics that we love: all the must-haves, all the morning muffins and midnight treats, from homey staples to tiramisu cupcakes (so clever) and dazzlers that deserve champagne. With John’s smart tips, tricks, and savvy techniques, we’ll all be baking every day.”
“John’s easy approach to baking is why I always go back to him for my baking needs. Whether I need a quick school bake sale or a special event, he always has so many wonderful recipes to decide from. Can’t wait to add this newest book of his to my collection.”
