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. You'd never know that dazzling baked goods like these were gluten-free: Muffins, loaves and mixes, including banana oatmeal muffins, date cashew loafCookies and bars, such as crunch mocha cookies, almond macaroons, citrus squaresCupcakes, including sour cream fudge cupcakes, mini carrot cakes, amaretto cheesecakeCrisps, crumbles, puddings and cobblers, such as baked pear pudding for two, strawberry rhubarb crisp, creme caramel, peach cobblerNo-knead yeast breads, including lemon millet bread, pumpernickelTarts and pastry, including basic pastry, lemon meringue tarts, pumpkin tartsHoliday baking, including sticky date pudding, Scottish shortbread, classic crepes The authors also include handy and specially created glossaries for those managing gluten intolerance, including information on equipment, ingredients and techniques.
