'I have nothing against gluten, but this book is just full of recipes I long to make' β€” Nigella Lawson

The only gluten-free baking book you'll ever need, with delicious recipes that work perfectly every single time.

From proper crusty bread, pillowy soft cinnamon rolls, and glorious layered cakes to fudgy brownies, incredibly flaky rough puff pastry, and delicate patisserie β€” everything that once seemed impossible to make gluten-free can now be baked by you.

Baked to Perfection begins with a thorough look at the gluten-free baking basics: how different gluten-free flours behave, which store-bought blends work best, and how to mix your own to suit your needs. Covering cakes, brownies, cookies, pastry, and bread in turn, Katarina shares the best techniques for the recipes in that chapter. Each recipe is accompanied by expert tips, useful scientific explanations, and occasional step-by-step photography to help you achieve gluten-free perfection.

Recipes include classic bakes like super-moist chocolate cake, caramel apple pie, and chocolate chip cookies. Enjoy the softest, chewiest bread, including crusty artisan loaves, baguettes, brioche burger buns, and soda bread. Indulge in mouth-watering showstoppers like toasted marshmallow brownies, coffee cream puffs, and strawberries + cream tart.
