As we wait out the last few chilly weeks before mild spring weather begins to break through, we find ourselves craving carby favorites to warm our bellies. So we were thrilled to find The Southern Baking Cookbook to help us out. “My mother, an avid home baker and artist, instilled in me her love of preparing and presenting food,” shares food stylist and author Jenn Davis. “No store-bought birthday cakes or frozen pies made their way into her kitchen.” In her new book, Davis delivers that same sensibility, sharing beautiful and delicious homemade takes on Southern baking classics from cobbler to cookies. Try one of these mouthwatering delights tonight!
