Anyone who has a favorite restaurant and loves certain dishes that they eat there, is usually very happy when that restaurant comes up with a cookbook containing their favorite dishes. Kneaders Bakery and Cafe started in Orem, Utah, and has expanded to several Utah locations, including my city. The bakery products and the restaurant dishes are fabulous, so I was excited to pick up a copy of their excellent cookbook, Kneaders Bakery & Cafe: A Celebration of Our Best Recipes and Memories by Colleen Worthington. This cookbook has interesting stories and vignettes, but the best part is that there are dozens of appealing recipes. In fact, there isn’t even one recipe included that I don’t want to make.

The recipes are written in the traditional manner with a list of ingredients followed by step-by-step instructions. Worthington has also included comments at the beginning of each recipe, which tell readers where the recipe originated, or have hints, which are both helpful and fun. This makes it possible for both beginning and advanced cooks to successfully prepare picture-perfect dishes.

One of the best parts of this cookbook is that there are beautiful, professional photographs of almost every recipe. These photos make it difficult to decide which recipe to make next, because the dishes appear to be mouthwatering.

This is one excellent cookbook, and makes it possible for even for those who don’t have a Kneaders Bakery near them to make these yummy dishes.

Special thanks to NetGalley for supplying a review copy of this book.
