Being relatively new to veganism, I was looking for baked goods recipes that were more whole-food based, not terribly complicated, and still produced food you would want to eat! The Joy of Vegan Baking delivers in all of these areas. I was somewhat skeptical of baking without dairy milk, eggs, or dairy butter, however Colleen masterfully introduces the idea that baking requires agents to moisten, bind, and leaven -easily achieved with non-animal-derived ingredients, such as ground flax or bananas. I've only made a few of the recipes at this point, but they've all turned out wonderfully! From the copious quick breads to the multitude of muffins to the dozens of deserts, The Joy of Vegan Baking offers uncomplicated and extraordinarily tasty recipes. I would strongly recommend this book to any vegan, vegetarian, future-reformed-meat-eater, or any person looking to have a more healthful approach to baking! This is my fist Colleen Patrick-Goudeau cookbook, but I'm looking very forward to picking up a copy The Vegan Table. Colleen also has a variety of sample recipes available from compassionatecooks that will wet your appetite for a more enriched, humane lifestyle.Read full review
Nice book but I am very disappointed there is no calorie count with the recipes. I don't eat anything unless I know how many calories there are. So now I can't make any of the recipes.

Good recipes but I wish there were more oil free recipes.

Haven't baked yet but this book will be fun to use so I can follow a recipe instead of trying to change a recipe to vegan and not have it turn out and waste food. The recipes look good!
Tiene una hermosa portada que dan deseos de comenzar rápido a hornear. Tiene tantas opciones. En ésta temporada confeccioneré algunas de las recetas para obsequiar a familia y amigos.
