January 2026 EYB Cookbook Club Summary

Each month we allow posting in our Eat Your Books Cookbook Club from any cookbook, magazine or blog and most months we also offer one featured cookbook.

We hope that sharing our favorite recipes will help our Members discover new cookbooks and recipes to try. Also please see our February 2026 Great Big Cookbook Club Summary which is now organized by location and includes local cookbook clubs and those held at bookstores.

This month we featured any books or recipes to catch up and start January fresh.

All EYB Cookbook Club featured books have a filter and can be found here.

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 the cooking options for February and March at the bottom of this post.

Have you uploaded any of your own photos yet? Learn more! Even free Members can add their photos to our recipe record and it only takes a minute! Add the book, online recipe, magazine to your Bookshelf and then upload your photo. Please remember to update your profile with your Instagram name if you would like to be tagged in any photos that we share!
