Essential Reference for Egg- and Dairy-free Baking

"The Joy of Vegan Baking" by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau is an essential cookbook for anyone interested in egg- and dairy-free baking. The recipes are easy to understand, even for beginning bakers, the ingredients are accessible, and Colleen covers many of the delicious comfort foods that you don't have to give up when removing eggs and dairy from the diet. The layout of the book is gorgeous and easy to read, and the different indices (sorted by ingredients, seasons and holidays/celebrations) are appreciated. The cornbread is moist and flavorful with a great crumb, the peanut butter chocolate bars bring back fond childhood memories, the peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips are rich, sweet and chewy and the pumpkin cheesecake with pecan crust is an appreciated departure from the standard pumpkin pie during the holidays. This is certainly not a health food book, but the food is definitely good for the soul. These recipes will make any skeptic a believer in vegan baked goods. Great job, Colleen!

This has become my new favorite cookbook

I'm new to vegan baking, and am baking up a storm after buying this book.

Try the raspberry oatmeal bars, chocolate chip cookies and sugar cookies with Royal Icing(the almond extract in this recipe gives it a nice flavor). Outstanding. These taste better than their non-vegan counterparts, and I'm a tough critic when it comes to cookies.

THE ULTIMATE VEGAN COOKBOOK

I ADORE this book. It is beautifully written, incredibly easy to follow and the recipes are excellent! It is a joy to read and a joy to use. I have made several recipes from this book and have been delighted at how well they came out and how delicious they were.

I also like how balanced the recipes are and how thorough and professional the cookbook is. I think this is a must-own cookbook for anyone who cooks, regardless of their food ethics.

Colleen truly demystifies vegan baking and makes it easy and accessible. I have found it difficult over the years to explain vegan baking and cooking to non-vegans, and I think from now on I'll just give them a copy of the cookbook with my favorite recipes dog-eared and words of encouragement. Anyone, from the seasoned chef to the beginner, will enjoy The Joy Of Vegan Baking!

This cookbook has it all: ease of use, delicious recipes, well-written instructions and descriptions, an affordable price point, and HEART. I cannot wait for Colleen's next book!

The Best Vegan Baking Book So Far!!!

This book rocks! It takes vegan baking to a whole new level. Everything I have made so far(Lemon Cheesecake, Lemon Bars, Chocolate, Chip Cookies, Peanut Butter Cookies, and Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcakes) has been devoured by non-vegans and vegans. I have requests from non-vegans to make them some baked goods for pay. I say all this to say that this book is terrific and if it is not a part of your collection you are truly missing out. I highly recommend this book to vegan and non vegan cooks!!!
