Kyle Books, www.amazon.com
Helpfully, this book measures in grams *and* tablespoons, so you can bake however you prefer.
Promising review: "I love this book and all of Edd Kimber's recipes! This book is perfect if you want to try baking a lot of things but don't have a big family or budget. The recipes are sized-down versions of all the classics plus other mouthwatering temptations. So you can try them all without wasting money on ingredients— standard recipes make 12–24 servings, too much for my small family. Small Batch Bakes recipes are for just 2–6 servings, much more reasonable and efficient. Also included are clever use-also recipes — like if recipe A calls for 1 egg white, you can easily find a recipe B that uses that 1 egg yolk. Such a smart book to put out, thank you Edd Kimber!!" —Emily McGee
