This is a great, simple recipe book for what the title calls for: quick breads with fresh fruit.
It's simply worded, and, I feel, very personal. I love how the author placed little snippets before each recipe, and I also like the preface here - make sure to read it; it's very helpful (especially for beginners) in the quick bread scene. (I particularly liked her note about how she doesn't like having fresh fruit leftovers - and that's why she incorporates this into her quick breads!)
What I like the most? It's rather difficult for me to get ingredients in some cookbooks from the US or in the Europe. This cookbook, however, is great for me, as I can happily use local ingredients for baking these!
I'd gladly give this 5 stars, but I was saddened to know that there were no pictures of the final products in my copy. (I viewed this over a Kindle App though. The photos I saw with my e-book copy are general pictures of the fruits themselves.)
Overall, it's a lovely read, and, I believe, a great recipe book for fresh fruit quick breads. :)

Long Live Quick Breads
December is here and brings with it all kinds of celebrations from now to New Year's Eve. This is the time that most of us pull out all the culinary stops. So I'm reading cookbooks. I love to cook -- and eat -- so I'm always looking for new cookbooks. With my Kindle, I'm no longer limited to the number of cookbooks that fit on the shelf above my kitchen desk.
I was delighted to find this cookbook because Quick Breads seem to have fallen out of favor with the new crop of bakers. Quick Breads' smaller cousin -- the muffin -- has taken over as the most popular quick and easy "bread" to bake.
That's a shame because a quick bread loaf is easy to make, beautiful to look at, and delicious to taste. I have fond memories of the quick breads my mom baked in loaf pans or bundt pans: banana nut, pumpkin raisin, and cranberry orange. I still make those three, but I was delighted to try new recipes from this book.
Joyce Middleton makes a good case for bringing the quick bread back to popularity. Her cookbook offers the basic information needed to understand the easy science behind quick breads, clear step by step directions on the fundamentals, a linked Table of Contents to help you leap to the recipes you want to try, and excellent recipes that give delicious results.
I was particularly taken with the Peach Cobbler Loaf -- my darling hubby loves Peach Cobbler so anything with that in the name had to be tried. This week I'm baking the Orange Chocolate Chip Bread. Just the name of that makes my mouth water.
The Bottom Line
Fresh Fruit Quick Breads (In the Pantry Quick Breads) by Joyce Middleton is a good choice for amateurs and experienced bakers. Get a copy and start baking. Your family and friends will appreciate you and the results.
