It was exciting for The Chef and I to receive a copy in the mail recently and to finally see our Apple Cider Soup recipe inside! We had fun looking through the other recipes… over 200 of them. We found some we’re definitely looking forward to trying. Apple Cider is one of the things I enjoy most about winter, so the Apple Cider Breakfast Oats caught my eye, especially since we’ve been eating more oats for breakfast lately.
From our Christmas series, you know how much we love Christmas! And food is definitely a big part of most Christmas gatherings. All of those classic holiday recipes are great, but sometimes we really want something new to add into the mix during the Christmas season.
Chapters in this cookbook include Cozy Christmas Brunch, Chill-Chasing Soups and Breads, Caroling Party Supper, Classic Christmas Dinner, Festive Holiday Fare, and Sweet Treats to Share. Some of our picks from our first glance at the cookbook are:
Angel Clouds
Sour Cream Potato Cakes
Butterscotch Apple Blondies
Holiday Strawberry Bars
Grandma’s Vanilla Balls
Candy Cane Cocoa
Jack Frost’s Snowflake Punch
If you are familiar with Gooseberry Patch cookbooks, then you know they are not your “average” cookbook! They include much more than recipes, like decorating tips or other ideas. They also have beautiful covers, so not the kind of cookbook I want to put away on a shelf with all of our other ones. As soon as we get a book shelf project finished, I will have one in the kitchen to display my Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. 
They make great gifts for foodies, so think about any upcoming gift giving occasions you may have, such as birthdays, bridal showers, or even Christmas. I like to shop during the year for Christmas gifts when possible, so for me, it’s never too early to think about my Christmas gift giving list.
You can purchase the cookbook through Amazon
if you like the convenience of shopping from home, or it should also be available through your local bookstore. In celebration of Gooseberry Patch’s 20 Years of Cookbooks and our recipe getting published in The Christmas Table, we also are giving one away. See details below for how to enter the giveaway:
