Gluten-free Baking Book

Small batch gluten-free baking recipes for people with an eye on costs and storage space constraints.

---

These outstanding recipes run the gamut of exactly the type of baked goods those managing gluten intolerance crave - with a small twist. Based on extensive feedback, we've learned that gluten-free home bakers prefer small batches and yields from their efforts. The reasons vary from space constraints (since people managing gluten intolerance typically require more products, which take up valuable cupboard, refrigerator and freezer space) to the sheer cost of the ingredients. The high cost of these ingredients often means that the baked goods tend to be enjoyed only by those actually suffering from the intolerance as opposed to other family members, friends and the like. And we've heard time and time again how much people crave variety and the ability to bake something that is quick, is easy to clean up and doesn't require hours of baking in the kitchen.
