When Hannah began sharing her experimental cooking projects and snippets of her small-town life online, her platform exploded with support for her big-hearted spirit and off-the-cuff style, and her debut cookbook embraces this playful side of cooking. Measure with Your Heart is filled with Hannah’s twists on classic Southern cooking, with an emphasis on making everything from scratch so you know exactly what’s in it. Try your hand at Hannah’s homemade versions of kitchen staples like Vanilla Extract or Beef Bone Broth. Bring some warmth to your dinner table with mains like Finger Lickin’ Fried Chicken, Butternut Squash Casserole, and Ham Hock Lima Bean Stew. Serve up Aunt Teisha’s Cowboy Caviar or Mini Pizza Pops at your next gathering alongside a Strawberry Sip N’ Spritz. Featuring 120 gorgeous photographs and 100 mouthwatering recipes, Measure with Your Heart has ideas for sweet and savory breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, as well as drinks, appetizers, and, for parents reading, even snacks for your kids (and pups!)—so get in the kitchen and try things out. If you totally mess up, even better! For Hannah, home cooking is not about being perfect—it’s about having fun and nourishing the ones you love.
