The Southern Mountain Kitchen Baking Cookbook

When you think about Southern food, it has a style and taste all its own. Then when you mix it with Mountain dishes, you have the most amazing result. The mix is like a party of flavor. In this book, I have tried to capture a collection of that amazing flavor, in a mix of baking recipes from my life on the mountain.

I was born Native American (Cherokee). Mix that with the variety of people who influenced the food on the mountain, from German, to French, to Italian and Polish. There were so many styles blended into our community, and that, I think made the foods we ate so amazing.

In this book, I have traveled back to a time when life was a little less complicated, when we all came together to enjoy a meal, as family and friends. I think that is why I choose to create food, to bring back a time when life was all about, family, friends and food.

In this baking collection, I include recipes for cakes, cookies, baked breads, cobblers and baked food dishes. Along the way, I even through in a few non baking dishes that I think you might enjoy. I hope you enjoy!
