Many home cooks have learned from relatives and top chefs about the benefits of cooking in cast iron: it infuses food with more flavor, reaches higher temperatures and is naturally nonstick. But did you know cast iron is the key to the most delicious baking you will ever taste? Think effortless, but unforgettable No-Knead Bread, the most delicious Skillet Berry Cobbler, simple Cornbread Focaccia, decadent Dark Chocolate S’Mores Pie and incredible Maple Pecan Rolls.

In The Best Cast Iron Baking Book, veteran cookbook authors Roxanne Wyss and Kathy Moore share over 80 sweet and savory recipes. Everything in this book is cooked in a 10-inch skillet or Dutch oven. You’ll find breads, biscuits, cobblers, pies, cakes, pizzas, brownies and much more. There are unbeatable, tried-and-true childhood favorites like Southern Pecan Pie and trending sweet treats like a dreamy Caramelized Apple Dutch Baby.

Cast iron baking is easy — and this cookbook empowers home cooks to bake and use their cast iron confidently. Roxanne and Kathy also include tips for cooking with cast iron and information for how to care for, season and store these versatile products. It’s time to make use of that trusty pan and get baking!

The name of this bread may sound classic and somewhat modest, but one taste will change your perception — it is truly divine. The raisins are stirred into the dough; then, while the dough rises, the flavor permeate the bread. What an incredible treat!

Comforting apple butter, which is seasoned with cinnamon and cloves, reminds many people of a beautiful autumn day. These easy, no-knead rolls are too delicious to serve just during the fall, and since apple butter and apple cider are available all year long, there is no need to wait.

Many of us have fond memories of Grandma’s sweet potato pie at family celebrations and holidays. In the southern United States this pie replaces pumpkin pie at many a Thanksgiving table. It is usually enjoyed with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream on top.

This is an ideal focaccia bread to serve on Saturday evening when friends come over, since it’s both flavorful and impressive. Everyone can enjoy a slice with a cocktail or a glass of wine.

Who doesn’t smile when they hear “Cherry pie for dessert”? We prefer cherry pies prepared in the cast-iron skillet because it is deeper than a traditional pie plate and can hold extra cherries. Of course, you can always embellish each serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

There’s no need to rush to the local grocery or bakery to pick up a cookie cake for a celebration. This recipe comes together in a snap and can be served warm with ice cream, if desired.
