by Benjamina Ebuehi

A Good Day to Bake is full of 70 sweet and savory baking recipes for any day of the week, led by flavor. Going through the ritual of bringing out the measuring scales, pouring out flour, whipping up the eggs, stirring the batter and impatiently slicing up warm cake is a beautiful thing that deserves to be enjoyed all year round no matter the day, season or occasion. This is a cookbook that embraces simplicity, mindfulness and the therapeutic comforts of baking. The Great British Bake Off's 2016 contestant Benjamina writes so warmly about cakes and her recipes speak to a natural, seasonal and down-to-earth way of baking. Chapters include Herbs & Tea, Stone Fruit & Berries, Vegetables, Best of Beige, Spice Cupboard, and Chocolate. Because every day is a good day to bake.

"I love a weekend baking project just as much as the next person, but sometimes I just want to pull out ingredients I already have and turn them into a weeknight treat. Benjamina Ebuehi gets that and, in A Good Day to Bake, offers up recipes that make the most of what you have on hand – rarely did I need to hit the grocery store before getting started. From the sweet potato, chorizo and spinach turnovers to the peanut butter cookies filled with dark chocolate, you’ll find recipes that help you slow down during the week, even if just for an hour."
