May 2022 EYB Cookbook Club Summary

Each month we offer at least four cooking options in our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club. This month we have been cooking from:

• Cookbooks: Half Baked Harvest Cookbook, Half Baked Harvest Super Simple and Half Baked Harvest: Every Day by Tieghan Gerard
• Baking: The Cake Book: Beautiful Sweet Treats for Every Craving by Rebecca Firth – online recipes
• Online: Half Baked Harvest blog — add to your bookshelf for over 2,500 recipes.

For past EYB Cookbook Club summaries, #EYBCookbookClub will pull up an archive of our club’s activities. Please note our announcement document shared in the club shares all our options (including those in the past). You will find June’s options as well as our 2022 year-long options at the bottom of this post.

An EYB member recently asked what options were available for those not on Facebook. Please post your photos here on EYB as I always check the book’s member images and try to include those as well. We want everyone to participate.

Our Great Big Cookbook Club Roundup shares what is going on in other clubs. The link above will bring up those posts.
