Customer Rating:      Summary: A classic Comment: When friends come to visit, the Breakfast Book comes out. Dutch Babies, Apple Pancakes, Raw Apple Muffins, Oatmeal Raisin Scones, Bridge Creek Ginger Muffins -- the list goes on. The food tends to the rich and decadent so I mix the menu up with lighter fare. But even so, it is hard to be moderate with this food, so I save it for special occasions. It is specialized, but breakfast needs more serious attention than it usually gets so I consider it a must have for every serious cook.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Breakfast Book, Recipes Comment: This was not what I expected, thou recipes are easy to follow. I like pictures of reach recipe, so it should be noted in description that there are NONE! This would be great as a gift for newly weds, singles venturing out on their own, etc.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Now an old favorite Comment: I collect breakfast cookbooks (yep, there are TONS out there!) but Marion's book has become one of my absolute faves: stained, dog-eared and notated. The Dried Fruit Cream Scones are excellent as are the Shirred Eggs, but her recipe for Pulled Bread (the easiest recipe in the world!) made me a fan for life. Many recipes have variations, and chapters consist of everything from breads to meat, as well as accompaniments including spreads and beverages and pies! Many of the recipes are ways to use up leftovers and hail from times past; don't look for new-fangled fusion cooking here, as Marion has strong opinions about not "startling" anyone that early in the morning. This is comfort food, folks, tried and true.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Wonderful Breakfast Recipes Comment: Simply delicious and a great way to start a day. Highly recommended.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Breakfast recipes for everyone Comment: Marion Cunningham taps into everyone's nostalgia for breakfast foods beyond cereal or scrambled eggs. The recipes are straightforward and feature a wide variety of tastes and types. Ms. Cunnigham's book reads as if she was a favorite aunt sharing her recipes.
Cunnigham also edited the new edition of Fannie Farmer's time-honored cookbook; she is a thoughtful writer and has a keen sense of how food fits into our modern lives. Her recipes are varied and you're sure to find something that you've never tried before but might want to.
A real pleasure and the 1 book you might want to have in your cookbook collection for breakfast.
PS - The recipe for Cream Biscuits (attributed to James Beard is a real winner and unbelievably simple to make.
Enjoy!
