Summary: Good (for the most part) recipes
Review: All the recipies I have tried have worked with the exception of one: the Ranch Dressing Bread. It was horrible. But the Pepperoni Pizza Bread is great, one of my favorites.

Also beware of the Harvest Vegetable bread - the hard dried vegetable chunks took the non-stick coating off the bread paddle.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good (for the most part) recipes
Review: I've made some bread from this book very successfully, but the gingery bread has a mistake in the amount of water. I had it on the timer and woke up to find a lump of dry junk. It needs 1 cup instead of 2/3 cup water. If you look at the proportions, this is obvious. The Paremesan tomatoe bread was great, though.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Betty Crocker's Bread Machine Cookbook.
Review: There are not many recipes in this book, but it has greatly increased the number of breads I can make. The recipes are easy to follow and work at high altitudes like Johannesburg with no adaptions. I have made the Rosemary Foccacia bread many times and it is an excellent recipe.

I can recommend buying this book

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simple, useful cookbook for easy homemade bread
Review: Using a bread machine is inherently simple, and this cookbook doesn't complicate matters. A brief introduction includes a glossary of ingredients, helpful hints, and troubleshooting tips. Two main sections - "Classic and Savory Loaves" and "Special Grains and Sweet Loaves" - include dozens of recipes, all with instructions for 1-pound and 1 ½ pound loaves. A third section includes recipes that use the bread machine to knead the dough, which is then further processed by hand and baked conventionally. A final chapter includes interesting toppings. Every recipe I have tried has worked well. The use of dry milk in recipes requiring milk allows most recipes to be made with the bread machine on a timer. The book is illustrated with attractive photographs.

Summary: If you have a bread machine, you could use this cook book!
Review: While not a big cook book it has lots of recipes. Everything from the standard white bread to all sorts of variations. I would recommend this to anyone who has a bread machine. After all, you can't go wrong with a name like Betty Crocker!
