The Pumpkin Bakery Cookbook, Signed Paperback

The Pumpkin Bakery: Farmhouse Recipes for Market Mornings from the Kansas Prairie, by Christopher & Margaret Snow, Newton, Kansas.

More than forty recipes, written at our own kitchen table and tested on the people who line up at our farmers market table on Saturday mornings. This is the book behind the muffins, the breads, and the pies we sell out of every week.

Inside the book

It opens with the pumpkins themselves, a master roasted puree, the Prairie Spice Blend, and notes for the prairie baker, then moves through six chapters:

• Morning at the Market, muffins, scones, coffee cake, baked donuts, waffles, and a pancake mix for gift jars
• Breads of the Prairie, Signature Pumpkin Bread, cinnamon swirl loaf, dinner rolls, brioche, skillet cornbread, and pumpkin bagels
• The Cookie Jar, Pumpkin Snickerdoodles, Sunrise Oat Cookies, pepita biscotti, whoopie pies, blondies, and swirl brownies

Grow what you bake

Most of the pumpkin in this book started as a seed we sell. If you want to close the loop, start with the Dickinson pumpkin, the original pie pumpkin behind Libby's canned pumpkin, or the Long Island Cheese pumpkin, a pre-Civil War American heirloom. Both are vine borer resistant Cucurbita moschata varieties that hold up to a Kansas July.
