I adore Erin Jeanne McDowell. She makes me happy! And she's the very best teacher..

“I can be with them without being with them “ brought tears to my eyes and is 💯 why I love using my mother’s recipes that she left handwritten.

[@paavo2000]

This amazing young woman is a delight to watch and learn from! Her “yes, you can” optimism is an inspiration to novice bakers everywhere.

[@kimclarke5018]

Love her

I absolutely adore Mrs. Erin Jeanne, she has restored HOPE that I too can make a delicious pie crust that doesn't flop! I recently ordered her book on Amazon, "The Book on Pie!" And I cannot wait to try her yummy recipes!....LOVE YOU ERIN!!

Shes so right. The memories I have of baking & cooking with my mom are the happiest. Especially now that my mom is gone, but Never forgotten.❤

[@janetking1316]

I can't say enough how happy I am that I found you online. It was totally by accident. One video was all it took. I have been baking for years and I STILL am learning from you every video I watch. And it doesn't hurt that you are in Kansas City where I grew up.😊

[@asuban]

She is so excited, open and warm personality about what she does. Really inspiring.

[@oneneednotbeachamber]

I love her so much

[@Sherryskogstad]

I got my love of baking from my Norwegian grandma Myrtle. She always had a ready array of “baked goods” for us to enjoy with the mandatory coffee each mid morning and mid afternoon.

[@hillaryroberts3623]

Wonderful piece, very encouraging to home cooks like me.

[@itslinziwalker]

If Erin's in it, I'm watching it ❤

[@SimplySage854]

I think I’ll start making my own crust, she inspired me

[@RCola1217]

I just found Erin. I have never wanted to learn from someone more. Is she looking for an apprentice 😂?

[@julseabate4173]

My grandmother was a horrible cook, and she never baked. Here is her recipe for a tuna sandwich: Spread a little mayo on some cheap white bread, open some cheap, greasy, tuna in oil (NOT evoo,) and dump some of it on the bread. Top the greasy mound with another piece of cheap, white bread.

[@jaycarver4886]

She's got a lot more under her belt than cook books. 😅

[@WilliamWBG]

Awesome cook. Great personality. Wonderful teacher. Such a bundle of joy. But, and there’s always a but, Americans are extremely obese, and everything she makes and teaches just makes our epidemic worse. Sugar is the root cause of our fat and unhealthy American lifestyle.

[@Golfer-js3xl]

What a sweeping generalization 😡. Bake and share- don’t need to eat it all.
