Super fun book brimming with special recipes from Zingerman's Bakehouse! The book is seasonal and has amazing ideas for each season and the holidays as well. Everything looks delicious and I can't wait to get this book into the kitchen!

Recipes for the year, with an emphasis on holidays, are separated by seasonal chapters. In them are cakes, pies, cookies, breads, breakfast items, and some savory/main dishes. Every recipe has photos, and I loved the section at the end with more description on Techniques and Diagrams. This is an interesting cookbook for those who love celebrating by baking special dishes.

As per the usual this Zingerman's Bakehouse Book is FANTASTIC. The formatting is great, easy to read and follow. I really enjoyed how they sync'd the recipes to match the seasons making it a really fun book to bake through all year long. One issue I did have was some of the included ingredients were a bit obscure.

I no longer live close to Ann Arbor, but this cookbook will help my Zingerman cravings until I am able to get back to Ann Arbor!

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for letting me review this book. This was a fun read! I liked there were photos for each recipe as well. I also enjoyed reading a bit of recipe history. This book is a must for any baker and I can’t wait to try several of these recipes!

I really enjoyed reading this cookbook. It's set out so creatively, with recipes grouped by occasion. I was surprised at how many I marked to try! I tried one recipe, the Sugar Crisp Muffins, and they were excellent. I can't wait to try more when the weather cools off. Ones I marked to try include the white bread recipe, whole-wheat funky chunky cookies, michigan double chocolate cookies, the gingerbread coffee cake, the chicago deep-dish pizza and the hot chocolate rice krispie treats. I think this would be a wonderful cookbook to gift at the holidays.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my complimentary digital copy. All opinions are my own.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a beautiful recipe book! The pictures of the recipes look good and show what each recipe should turn out like. There's a variety of recipes in this book sorted by season highlighting different celebrations and holidays throughout the year. There's fun recipes for pies, brownies, and other standard American baking fair.

Stunning photographs and a nicely curated range of recipes make this a winning book for any baker!

Thank you Netgalley and Chronicle Books

Zingerman's Bakehouse Celebrate Every Day is a cookbook that encourages the consumer to celebrate days even when they are not holidays through various recipes for all seasons. With a variety of sweet dishes with different flavor profiles, this book is so nice to look at, with clear instructions, beautiful photos, and lovely prose that encourages celebrating more often.

If you ever wanted to learn how to bake just like a populat bakery does for its customers then this is the cookbook for you! From the simple to the outlandish, this cookbook offers recipes for every occasion, big or small. Loved it! I thank Netgalley and Chronicle Books for the opportunity to read and review this cookbook!

I have a friend who has sung the praises of Zingerman’s but I have never made it to Ann Arbor to have the first hand experience. This is certainly as close as it gets with Zingerman’s collection of celebratory recipes.

This is a fabulous cookbook. The recipes are organized by season, beginning with spring and are organized by holidays. For example, summer has two recipes for the first day of school; these are raspberry Patti pockets and local spoonful creamy baked oatmeal. Both look delicious. Find recipes for everything from Passover to Father’s day, and from Halloween to Christmas, and so much more.

The recipes vary in difficulty. An easy one is “The Works Grilled Cheese Sandwich” while some of the bakes are I think beyond my level.

The book is filled with photos and they are sure to make cooks and bakers hungry. This will definitely inspire them to get into the kitchen!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this title. All opinions are my own.

This book will be wonderful addition to the kitchen of anyone who loves making good and great things to eat for family and friends! Plus the beauty of the book itself is a welcome addition to the cookbook library in any home....I know it will soon be part of mine! I love a cookbook that has great introductions to the makers of the recipes, the reasons the cookbook was developed, and what to look forward to in the chapters ahead! Those things give a baker/cook incentive to be a part of the yummy results shared in the book. Love the pictures and information about the recipe included with the instructions on how to make it. Also a great idea to divide by seasons!! So many yummy things within the pages of this cookbook that its hard to pick out favorites. So just start with the season you are in and move forward with testing them all out -- you won't regret it! Thank you to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for the opportunity to read and review this advance reader copy.

Having grown up in Ann Arbor, Zingerman's is still a stop on my itinerary whenever I visit family. I own other Zingerman cookbooks because the recipes are clear and easy to follow (and I am not an expert cook or baker). During Covid, I took virtual cooking and baking classes from them and I was happy to see some of the recipes (like the scones) were in this book. I also liked the opening sections written by the authors and appreciated all of the great pictures. I also appreciated the variety of recipes and can't wait to try more! I recommend this cookbook.

Thank you to Netgalley and Chronicle Books for an ARC and I left this review voluntarily.

Another excellent cookbook from the folks at Zingerman’s Bakehouse. I own their other cookbook and this is a fantastic companion to it. The authors do a great job of walking you through each recipe with detailed instructions and tips. For fans of the Bakehouse this is a great addition to your cookbook library.

So I’ve been a fan of this bakery for a while now and absolutely loved the first book. I couldn’t wait to try this new book out and oh man it’s flawless I love everything about it and I can’t wait to make some of the cakes for my family during the holidays

I like the theme of this book. The book revolves around seasons and holidays and what to cook for these events. Most recipes have cookbooks. The ingredients seem easy to find. The instructions are on average 1-2 pages. I saved a recipe for Sugar Crisp Muffins that look delicious. This might be a little heavy on desserts and breads for my taste because I am a better cook than baker :)

Sorted by season, and somewhat sub-sorted by relevant holiday, this mix of recipes is a great way to celebrate the wheel of the year. Using seasonal foods and inspiration across many food cultures there will be something for everyone in this cookbook. The dishes mix skills so this cookbook will be a great reference for cooks and bakers of all levels.

I am for sure going to buy this in hard copy and already have several recipes on next weeks meal plan to try.

Zingerman's is the famous Ann Arbor, Michigan bakery and deli known for providing decades of delicious, creative food. This cookbook is a marvel! It's filled with inspiration and new ideas, but totally grounded in the tradition of warm hospitality and our need to gather and celebrate with family and friends -- holidays and everyday. Definitely a keeper for the cookbook shelf, and filled with fun stories and sidebars as well as great illustrations and photos.
