Product Description
For celiacs and others unable to eat wheat, it’s not just the dessert tray that’s forbidden: hearty staples like bread and pizza are also off limits. Now, this exciting cookbook allows allergy sufferers to indulge in a wide variety of baked goods, all delicious and all gluten-free. Featured are more than 100 recipes, including homey treats like biscuits and blueberry muffins; chocolate chip and other cookie jar classics; old-fashioned favorites such as eclairs, pie crust, and lemon squares; artisan style breads; and more than 20 cakes, from a simple vanilla layer cake to a decadent German chocolate cake. A thorough grounding in classic baking techniques, as well as detailed instructions in how to buy, mix, and measure gluten-free flours, ensure success for even novice gluten-free bakers. Rounding out the book is a pertinent discussion on how readers can incorporate baking into busy schedules, and why it is so important for emotional, as well as physical, well-being.

Great cookbook for the person with Celiac July 14, 2008 MLindaG (PA) I have tried two of the recipes and found them both to be excellent. My brother has Celiac and I made him chocolate chip cookies for a graduation and he loved them. There were others at the party who did not know they were "special" cookies and they enjoyed the cookies as well. I also made a family cheese pie recipe that normally has a graham cracker crust and I subed their pie crust and it turned out great! No one even knew. I'm excited to try some of the other recipes to surprise him when he comes to dinner at my house.
a pleasant surprise July 10, 2008 Loriartinc (Tulsa, OK) I was very pleasantly surprised after trying several of the gluten-free recipes in this book. My family members that CAN eat gluten prefer these recipes to the glutenous ones! I've tried other book's recipes that claim this type of hype, but then it's clear once you make something, that it doesn't hold a candle to the real thing. Well, Ms. Roberts has figured it out. Thanks to her for taking the time to get it right!
Easy to Follow July 8, 2008 alizzyt (los angeles) When going gluten-free, the last thing one needs is a cookbook requiring you to invest in a dozen new flours that you have never heard of and don't know yet how to use. What I like so much about this cookbook is that it doesn't! She presents a formula for a "baking mix" which can be pre-made for easy use later (thereby not requiring you to combine several things for every recipe) and then most of the recipes call for this standard baking mix. I think this makes things easier, but also is more economical. Many of my favorite recipes are for things I never thought I'd have again - lemon bars, peanut butter balls, cupcakes and pizza crust (though the crust does not use the standard baking mix, understandably). I was so happy to get this cookbook and even though I haven't tried most of the recipes, I feel like the ease of use and presentation of options make a somewhat limiting-sounding diet not sound so limiting after all.
Great Cookbook!! June 30, 2008 A. Edmonds (Holiday, FL) This is a great gluten free cookbook. I have made a bunch of the recipes and they are wonderful!!
Finally! REAL food again! June 23, 2008 M. Wynne (East TN, USA) This wonderful book gives our family back the taste of real food - but keeps everything gluten-free. Annalise offers helpful tips, suggestions, and fabulous recipes. Cakes, cookies, even breads, Annalise has created recipes that are both easy and oh-so-tasty! THIS is my cookbook!
