I love Anna Olson and trust her recipes completely. This is an extremely organized and informative cookbook with beautiful pictures and delicious recipes. This would be one of my go-to recommendations for someone looking for a baking book.

Baking Day with Anna Olson is one of the most comprehensive and well-organized cookbooks on baking I have ever come across. The layout and design of this book makes it easy to follow and find a perfect recipe to make. Anyone new to baking or those looking for a fun activity to do with kids will appreciate the interesting and easy to follow recipes.

When a recipe book has a fantastic flow and is easy to navigate, I am in love. This book contains a multitude of images, as well as a guide at the beginning that explains the various icons that are used in the book. You can quickly find the level of difficulty of any recipe and whether it is vegan or gluten free. The pièce de résistance, however, is the entire section at the start of the book that has images to go along with each recipe and how long it should take to create them.

❀ INFORMATIVE AND DOWN-TO-EARTH

For some reason, a tools and equipment list is something I have come to really appreciate at the start of a cookbook, and this one is really extensive. Anna Olson has always had an informative and down-to-earth approach, so I am not surprised at the detail in this book. If you have enjoyed her other books, then this is one to add to your shelf as well.

❀ FUN AND EXCITING FOR KIDS

There are so many things to love about Baking Day with Anna Olson, including the fact that it is useful for any skill level. Also, if you enjoy baking with kids, there are a lot of fun and exciting recipes to try, including cupcake tops and pet treats. I have been wanting to try quite a few of these recipes and I look forward to making some of the tea time treats. It is a perfect gift for any baker on your gift giving list this year!

I flipped through the first fifty pages of the galley and stopped, realising I wanted to own this book and go through it slowly. Another winner from Anna Olson.

Anna Olson's newest cookbook is a must-have for any baker. Cookies, cakes, and more - it's all in here, with clear instructions and mouth-watering photographs. The whole grain pancakes are now on constant brunch rotation in our house, and I look forward to baking my way through the rest of the book over the winter months.

A great resource for both seasoned baker and brand new ones! Easy to follow recipes and lots of pictures (a cook book must!), Baking Day with Anna Olson is all about making delicious goodies with your loved ones. I really liked that she included a mix of Vegan and Gluten Free recipes (or added notes on how to make recipes this way) so that all types of eaters can enjoy this book.

I am never disappointed with an Anna Olsen cookbook! Filled with great pictures and easy to follow directions, I cant wait to try out her recipes myself.

BAKING DAY WITH ANNA OLSON brought back fond memories of my own baking days.
The were a good number of recipes to look at as well as the introductory chapters.
There is a rating system which lets you know how complex the recipe is going to be. Depending on the recipe there are special notes included as well as dietary information.
The next best thing to baking a recipe is looking at the scrumptious pictures in a cookbook. The photography was excellent.
I am looking forward to seeing the finished book.
It would make a great gift for the baker in your life.
