- While I didn't see any yeast bread recipes, there are many other baking recipes from cookies and muffins to brownies and cakes, and quick breads. I made the blueberry cake recipe (but divided it into cupcakes) and they were/are really good. It was my first run at GF baking, and I actually LIKE the cupcakes- not just find them an OK substitute. I used a commercial blend for the flour blend (Mama's Almond Blend), and almond flour- along with everything else. The baking times were different (I used frozen berries- so may have affected the time), but once they were 'toothpick clean' they were really good. There was a bit of the batter left over, and I nuked it- and it came out well also. There are many recipes I'm looking forward to trying. It's a great cookbook for someone who is just getting started in GF baking.
- My daughter and my husband were both recently diagnosed as being allergic to gluten (although not Celiac). At first we just avoided everything with gluten in it and I didn't try to make any replacement foods for their favorite -and now off-limits- baked goods. I LOVE to bake, but I was very confused and intimidated by the new world of gluten-free baking. The ingredients are so expensive compared with wheat flour that I was very afraid of baking up a costly disaster. But, my husband was in mourning for baked goods so I took the plunge and got this book from the library. The instructions are very clear and guide you around the differences between the wheat version and GF versions. For example, you don't have to worry about overworking GF pie crust, which makes sense if you think about it, but is TOTALLY different than the treatment of a wheat crust. I have made several recipes out of this book and we have loved them all. I have taken them to work as treats for collegues and they are incredulous when I tell them that they are GF. A group of us wheat-eaters all agreed that Reilly's GF brownie recipe is better than the "normal" wheat-laden recipe I used to bake. This book gave me new-found confidence in GF baking. I am very happy that I can provide delicious "normal"-looking and tasting treats that are safe for my family to eat. I have now returned the libraries copy and have bought my own.
- Since I am on a medically restricted diet I need to find alternatives to wheat and enjoy the ideas these books represent.
- I have celiac disease and for the longest time I have not been able to enjoy any desserts. However, so far every recipe I have tried in this book have turned out amazingly. I especially love her crepe recipe. I strongly recommend this book if gluten-free baking is a struggle for you. Her recipes are easy to follow and turn out great.
- Thought it would be more colorful and easier to follow.
- Well written. She gives the science behind what we need to make gluten free baking work. Many times recipes I've used have been dissapointing. Not hers. So far every recipe I've tried has come out well.
I like that she gives a couple of different gluten-free flour recipes. Not everyone who will use this book has celiac disease. Some of us are wheat/gluten allergic and have other allergies as well (I'm allergic to potatoes too and often gluten free baking relies on using potato starch or flour ).
She also has a comprehensive list of sources for gluten free ingredients. - This is such a fun book. It holds a special place on my bookshelf. Colorful recipes and great ideas are wonderful for gluten-free people like me. When flour is required, I only use gluten free and my husband cannot tell the difference, except in chocolate chip cookies, but he has been eating those for over 40 years, so he's an expert on how they should taste.
- As some of the reviewers mentioned there are some duds in this book. The oil crust, for one, was awful. As was the plum coffee cake -- I wonder if every recipe was actually tested. The way she gushed over the coffee cake and how horrible it actually was, it makes no sense! And my GF desserts are known around as being excellent -- clearly some of these reviews on are from people who tried one recipe and it worked so they wrote a 5-star review talking about how Ms. Reilly went to the Cordon Bleu -- well, credentials mean nothing to me when I'm brushing my teeth to get rid of the taste and texture it leaves behind and destroying all traces of the rest so no one eats it inadvertently! And some of the cookies/muffins are just amateur compared to Annalise Roberts. So, why the 3 stars? When I started cooking GF over 2 years ago I found Annalise Roberts's books to be the ones to produce the most gourmet results. But also found that they rely heavily on the starches and lacked the nutritional content of baked goods with gluten flours. 20 lbs larger, I stopped baking! But I still couldn't bear to give up muffins etc. So I revisited Rebecca Reilly's Gluten-Free Baking recently in search of recipes with higher protein and found them - she does use less starch in a lot of her recipes as well as soy flour, almond flour etc. So far I can recommend her banana breads and pumpkin cookies, and am at least glad to be learning more about making higher-nutrition GF baked goods. After all, the more you know about what doesn't work, the more you know about what does, right?
