This was not the full cookbook ARC but that was completely fine because even in the sample there are so many good recipes! Right away I knew my daughters and I will be making the Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix for Christmas gifts for everyone. Other Standout recipes were.
Golden Milk Tonic
Baked Oatmeal
Angel Biscuits
Grandma's Honey Wheat Bread
Peaches and Cream Waffles

I will definitely be on the look out for the complete cookbook!

I found a few good recipes in this cookbook. Thank you.

Many thank to Net Galley for a copy of this cookbook.

This beautifully designed book will please many who appreciate comfort foods. The pages I previewed included the first chapters: Memorable Beverages, Nostalgic Breakfast Foods, and Cozy and Crusty Breads. The varied breakfast selection’s especially appealed to me, and I plan to make the Dutch Baby crowd-size pancake soon! I don’t doubt that the remaining sections: Savory Salads and Sides, Stick-to-your-Ribs Main Dishes, Comforting Soups, and Indulgent Desserts— all contain mouthwatering entrees for comfort-food enthusiasts. Wanda E. Brunstetter’s cookbooks are well-known compilations of recipes gathered Amish and Mennonite cooks throughout America, and this volume is an inviting addition for your own cookbook shelf or for food lovers on your gift list.

I can’t wait to get my hands on this cookbook. This was a sample book. This is from my favorite Amish writer. If you want to cook like the Amish I recommend this book.

Many wonderful recipes.
I recommend this book.
Wanda E. Brunstetter's Amish Friends Comfort Foods Cookbook by Wanda E. Brunstetter is a wonderful well written 5 star book.
I received a complimentary SAMPLE ONLY copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and NetGalley and was under no obligation to post a review.
I am looking forward to reading more books by Wanda E. Brunstetter.

This collection of recipes and stories is like a warm hug. There are breakfasts and to enjoy with friends and family. The main tenet of this cookbook is a focus on comfort foods, and you will find them here. While there is nothing hugely new, it is a good reminder that together we celebrate and are so much stronger.
Thank you to NetGalley and Barbour Publishing for the advance copy. All opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed this! The recipes are unique and seem easy to follow. I think everyone could find one they want to try. I would recommend this! Special Thank You to Wanda E. Brunstetter,Barbour Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to read a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Well, I only reviewed a sample of this book, I can tell you that I absolutely loved every single bit of what was shared. I cannot wait to read the entire book in its entirety. Wanda never disappoints with her recipes. If you’re looking for some good comfort food? These will bring you right back to your Gross Mammi’s kitchen!

I enjoyed exploring the down home type recipes in the cookbook.
The recipes make me think of comfort food I grew up eating.
My one complaint is that every time I get a cookbook from NetGalley, the way it downloads on my Kindle PaperWhite is not reader friendly in any way….. I wonder if this is something that can be addressed?

Thank you NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

A cookbook of over 200 comfort food Amish and Mennonite recipes. Separated into categories, you will find many recipes you will want to be sure to try. Beautiful colorful pictures of foods, and credit given to each person submitting the recipe.

You will want to add this to your collection of the Amish Friends cookbooks. It would make the perfect gift for your friends.

Thank you to NetGalley and Barbour Publishing for the sample copy of this book. I highly recommend this book.

Thank you Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book. These opinions are completely my own.

I'm intrigued to read the rest of this book. I already found a few recipes I must try, such as next week my family is getting pancake pizza for dinner.

Recipes from Wanda E. Brunstetter's new Amish cookbook are just as wonderful as those from other books in this collection.
This tasty collection of comfort foods is well deserving of five stars

"If it weren't for hot water the teakettle wouldn't sing." Amish saying


Wanda Brunstetter offers her newest Amish Friends Cookbook for your collection. This book shares over 200 recipes of comfort foods in a spiral- bound volume. It includes beautiful photos of Amish properties and foods. Recipes submitted from Amish women include beverages, breakfast foods, cozy and crusty breads, main dishes, comforting soups and indulgent desserts. Those of us who read Mrs. Brunstetters works of fiction will recognize a popular Sunday staple; peanut butter spread. Other interesting offerings include hot chocolate, pumpkin spice latte, eggnog and many casseroles.

I received a digital e-copy of a portion of the cookbook from the publisher and NetGalley. Thermos oatmeal, breakfast haystacks and potato buns were of interest to me. I am sure the book deserves a 5 but I'm giving a rating of 4 due to the portion of recipes, introduction and photos I was able to see and read. This would be a great Christmas present or bridal shower gift in my own opinion.

Jamocha shake took me right out.
Burrito casserole? for an amish cookbook...
This cook book kind of seems like a woman just scoured pinterest fro vaguely rustic recipes.
Recipes look good and the amish Peanut butter spread was correct. but still kind of random and barely amish.

I love Wanda E. Brunstetter's books so much so that I have her other cookbooks and have used them here and there when looking for a new recipe. This cookbook will be a great purchase for anyone looking for new ideas in the kitchen. I can't wait to buy the print version of this cookbook.

Great pics and delicious recipes along with unique stories. If you love recipes and the Amish then this is one recipe book that you wanted to pick up.

I have always loved this cookbook series and am excited to see a new one come out. This cookbook is full of Amish recipes for comfort foods that look delicious. I’ve only glanced through a bit of it, but will definitely be trying some of these recipes, especially some of the breads. If you love Amish cooking and are looking for some good comfort food recipes for this winter look no farther! I can’t wait to dive into this cookbook and try out some of these recipes!

The Wanda E Brunstetter’s Amish Friends Comfort Foods Cookbook has beautiful pictures throughout but more importantly, it has recipes that will intrigue most people. From simple drop biscuit recipes to beloved ice box cake recipes, there is something for everyone. The recipes at the forefront of my try pile are the Baked Oatmeal, Raspberry-Stuffed French Toast, Dutch Baby (which sounds like a German pancake), Amish Peanut Butter Spread, and Cinnamon Butter. Perfect gift for that special someone who likes to cook, or is like me, a cookbook reader.

To me this book does scream comfort food & I feel like it was full of some really great recipes. I like that they compiled the recipes from different Amish and Mennonite communities.

I think they did a nice job with the images that were used in the books, some were scenes of things you see in Amish areas as well as the images of recipes in the book. Not every recipe had an image but in this instance that was okay for me. The recipes and book were laid out nice and easy to follow along which is important for a cookbook as well!

The book I received was a sample copy but I still loved it. I think the actual copy with more recipes will be amazing and something many people will love!

While not a cookbook for every collection, this volume would make an excellent addition to a library familiar with a strong readership of Brunstetter's books or for a library that serves an active home cooking community. The recipes provided in the sample are well written, with clear ingredient lists and steps, though the "gathered from the community" nature of the book does mean that some recipes have serving amounts or estimated preparation times, while others do not. Novice cooks might need to run through a recipe a few times to be sure it will work as expected. Outside of this, the photography and page layout is appealing and certainly up to the cozy/comfort level one expects from the title. Thank you to NetGalley for access to this arc.
