Amish Breads, Pies, and Sweets: Timeless Baking Traditions from Across America by Joanna Beth Miller is a heartfelt sequel to her bestselling A Taste of Amish Tradition, offering over 70 authentic Amish baking recipes that celebrate the simplicity, community, and heritage of Amish kitchens nationwide. Inspired by Miller's childhood in an Eastern Washington Amish colony, where she baked potato bread with her mother, this book explores regional baking variations from Pennsylvania to Montana, blending personal stories with practical guidance for modern readers.

The book is structured into seven chapters, each focusing on a baking category: Chapter 1, "The Foundation of Amish Baking - Breads," features 10 recipes like Amish Friendship Bread and Potato Bread Rolls, perfect for daily meals. Chapter 2, "Pies - Sweet and Savory Comfort," includes Shoofly Pie and Huckleberry Pie, showcasing regional pies for communal feasts. Chapter 3, "Cookies, Bars, and Pastries - Sweet Bites of Tradition," offers Sorghum Molasses Cookies and Whoopie Pies for snacking. Chapter 4, "Cakes - Celebratory Sweets," presents Applesauce Cake and Blackberry Jam Cake for celebrations. Chapter 5, "Preserving the Sweetness - Baked Goods for Storage," details Dried Apple Slices and Peach Preserves for year-round baking. Chapter 6, "Donuts and Fried Pastries - Festive Treats," highlights Faschnachts and Apple Fritters for holidays. Chapter 7, "Seasonal Bakes - Harvest and Holiday Delights," features Pumpkin Bread and Christmas Spice Cookies for seasonal joy.

An appendix provides a glossary of Amish baking terms (e.g., "schnitz," "faschnachts"), modern baking tips (e.g., using mixers, ovens), and resources for sourcing Amish-style ingredients like flour and molasses. Acknowledgments express gratitude to Amish communities, Miller's family -- especially a touching memory of baking with her mother -- and supporters, emphasizing cultural respect.
