Bakerita: 100+ No-Fuss Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, and Refined Sugar-Free Recipes for the Modern Baker Hardcover – Illustrated, March 24, 2020

We love this book! There are many allergies in our family, so this has been amazing. It offers delicious recipes that are dairy-free, gluten-free, and free of refined sugar. I don’t feel bad enjoying these desserts because they’re so healthy. We try to avoid refined sugar, so it’s great to have such tasty and wholesome alternatives. The book includes lots of pictures, which makes it fun and easy to follow, and the instructions are clear—everything we’ve made has turned out great. We’ve loved every recipe we’ve tried!

Favourite cook book.

I am lactose intolerant and my A1Cs have been climbing. So I have made a bunch of healthy eating changes, but was struggling to find Keto desserts that didnt include milk, yogurt, etc.This book offers all kinds of options for people who want to eat Keto desserts and also want to avoid milk in my case, or eat vegan. In cases where a dairy item is called out, vegan options are mentioned. If you are allergic to almonds, almond milk, coconut flour, coconut sugar, etc, this may not be the book for you as the author uses these ingredients as healthy alternatives to milk, white flour, sugar and brown sugar.So far I have made two batches of keto cookies and two batches of keto donuts. The first time I followed the instructions to the letter, and the second time I made some tweaks to create new variations. I look forward to trying more recipes and then tweaking them to make other variations.My only complaint would be nutrition info (calories, protein, sugar, fat, fiber) is not listed for each recipe. So being a spreadsheet person, I created a tab for each recipe that I've used, listed the ingredients and nutrient info from the packaging, and then estimated the nutritional values per 100 gram serving. Then I entered my custom items into my food tracker app and use my scale to determine my snack's weight & nutritional values. Not as easy as scanning a barcode on the box and having the nutritional info prepopulated, but not a showstopper. Especially since it's difficult to find Keto Vegan snacks at a Walmart or grocery store chain.

Let me say first that I have just opened this book and have not baked one recipe in it. HOWEVER, this is the very first cookbook that I have seen/purchased that did not require multiple substitutions, or will allow me to bake just about every single recipe in it.My only real intolerance is eggs. I discovered this in my mid forties and eliminating them and treating the intolerance has been a godsend. My personal experience is that I do better on a Paleo/Keto type of diet, but almost all GF, Keto recipes use a lot of eggs. I have been searching for this particular book for a few years and am so glad to have found it.As an integrative medicine provider, I run an elimination diet coaching program as well. Just about every recipe in this book applies to that as well (peanut butter can easily be swapped out for any other nut butter). So, I am also grateful to have a reference on hand to recommend.The other fantastic feature of the recipes in this book, in addition to the amazing photography for reference, is the fact that the ingredients are widely available and I already have everything I need according to my personal eating habits! I recently purchased another award-winning baking book for gluten-free grains and flours, but most of the recipes use highly specialized ingredients. If you are not constantly baking, the cost would be too much for the occasional specialty recipe. That other book also requires superior baking skills (which I personally have, but could not make a recommendation to casual home cooks). I am so grateful for the simplicity of the recipes and attention to detail.Bravo! I am digging into this book ASAP to make my first recipe. The challenge will be choosing one to begin with. Thank you, from my whole heart, for this tremendous effort for those of us who don't fit neatly into popular trendy diets.

While this cookbook has a lot of good recipes and is gluten-free, I tend not to want to use so much of the coconut oil. I would caution to research the nutritional value of ingredients like coconut oil, coconut cream, and even coconut flour. I prefer to use plant butter instead of coconut oil because I think it is the healthier choice.

I have given this book to all of my friends. I use this book weekly, it’s that good. She has done exhaustive research in her recipes, believe me I know from experience. She is an excellent baker who takes pride in her recipes. Get this book! I am so grateful she made it.

Cookbook for baking - especially for those needing GF, dairy free desserts. I have only had the book a short time, but the five recipes I have made tasted great.

I'm allergic to eggs, so to find this book you wrote helped me in so many ways! Thanks to you, I can bake and eat stuff I've never had before! I'm a beginner baker!
