The Harvest Baker: 150 Sweet & Savory Recipes Celebrating the Fresh-Picked Flavors of Fruits, Herbs & Vegetables

This is a great baking book, full of bread, biscuits, pizza, flatbreads, dough, tartlets, pies, cookies cakes and crostatas! There are 150 recipes, which makes for a great value. Savoury and Sweet are both included, along with tips on how to make ingredients like vegetable purees. The book is divided into four sections to cover Bread, Entrees, Desserts and Toppings / Sauces.

One thing I did not love was that although the book had many photographs, more often they were photographs of the ingredients rather than the end result of the recipes. While I do not hate looking at photographs of sweet potatoes or squash, I prefer to see an end result of what the dish should or could look like.

A very competent book on baking savoury and sweet show more items.

Measurements are by volume, not weight.

Made the blueberry cream cheese pound cake. It was delicious! But it took much longer than even the maximum time in the oven stated in the recipe.

Made the squash dinner rolls. Very good, dough easy to work with (used a mixer for the first stage). Good rise, soft, sweet flavor.

Would borrow this again (but I still prefer to bake by weight rather than volume).
