A lovely recipe book with lots of scrumptious recipes to bake. The recipes are both clear and easy to follow, I love that the recipes are both gluten and dairy free, I’ve been practicing ready for my niece to visit so I can bake some treats that she can enjoy along with the whole family.

I love that there are now so many options for fun treats that are dairy and wheat free!

The recipes here are not overly complicated and the pictures are so cute!

I loved the dairy free option of this cookbook. I subbed some recipes with monkfruit to make it sugar free also and they were delish.

Many thanks to Net Galley and Quarto Publishing Group for a copy of this cookbook in exchange for an honest review.

Craveworthy Baking offers a delicious journey into the world of dairy-free and gluten-free baking, and Danielle Cochran truly delivers on taste and variety. The recipes are approachable, and the book provides a solid foundation for anyone trying to navigate gluten and dairy-free baking, with clear instructions and helpful tips. The cakes, cookies, and breads all turned out moist and flavorful, often indistinguishable from traditional versions. Some recipes required specialty ingredients, which may not be pantry staples, but the end results are well worth it. A great addition to any baker’s shelf, especially for those with dietary restrictions. Special thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this cookbook!

Gluten & dairy free cookbook. These recipes are amazing and do not feel like they are missing anything! The pictures are craveworthy too

The cover says it all.
It doesn't matter if you are looking to curve a few pounds by cutting out grains and dairy or if you are gluten-tolerant, Craveworthy Baking will help you curb your sugar cravings with easy-to-follow recipes that will have you drooling before you get past the first chapter.

I really wanted to love Craveworthy Baking: Delicious Dairy-Free and Gluten-Free Cakes, Cookies, Breads, and More, more than I did. To be fair, the recipe choices are enticing and the pictures are wonderful, but I got stuck on the author's methods. For example, just about every recipe in this book lists 1:1 Gluten-free flour as a sub for regular flour, and dairy-free butter, milk, or cheese as subs for their counterparts. The only author recommendations I could find for these alternatives was that she has a preference for creamy oat milk or pea-protein milk, as she says they best mimic the taste and performance of regular milk in baking. She prefers butter-like sticks made with vegetable, canola, or avocado oil; and she highly recommends Caputo gluten-free bread flour when a bread flour is called for, but few specific recommendations for the others. Regarding the topic of "Other Dairy," she writes: "Other dairy-free products come in different formulations and I've found it can really affect baking times. Take dairy-free cream cheese for instance: some might turn more liquidy when baked, messing with the baking times. But I've put a lot of batches through the oven to figure out the differences in timing using various brands. So, when recipes feature these ingredients, you might notice variations of up to 10 to 15 minutes in some recipes. Be sure to read the recipe in it's entirety on what to look for to know when your baked item is good to go. There simply was no better way to handle this, as I couldn't make the book work for all readers in all locations if I mandated using a specific brand." While as a baker I can understand the issue, I do think that recommendations for best performers could have been made, letting the reader know what to expect (timing, etc.) with a particular brand.
Also, as someone who has baked gluten-free and regular for many years, I don't find anything interesting about recipes that simply substitute a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. While pretty reliable, these flours were developed to replace regular AP flour in a recipe, cup for cup (ie 1:1), meaning you can use them in just about any existing recipe to achieve a gluten-free result. Same with basic dairy substitutions. What I look for in a gluten-free cookbook is the use of other flours, such as buckwheat (no gluten), rye, oat, cassava, etc. I just find it more interesting and, as I say, we already know we can sub a 1:1 GF flour blend so if I'm buying a new cookbook I want it to provide something new.
I did make one recipe from this book, the Peanut Butter and Jelly Oatmeal Bars. For the jelly, the author provides a very simple recipe for strawberry jam made with cornstarch to thicken it. I chose to use blackberry jam I had on hand. The final treat was tasty and we enjoyed it, but there was no egg in the dough which meant it was a little bit more dry. It wasn't bad by any means, I just think I would have preferred an egg in the base, for the added moisture and flavor.
While I do appreciate the effort the author has put into this cookbook, I don't think it's what I was hoping it would be. I think the market for this book is those who are brand new to GF baking, or baking in general, who may not already have an arsenal of recipes to bake from.

There are beautiful pictures of every recipe in this book and that’s its biggest appeal. The recipes are adapted for gluten free and dairy free cooking by substituting oat milk, pea protein milk, dairy free margarine, gluten free baking flour and gluten free bread flour in traditional baking recipes. I prefer books that give recipes for the flour blends since that affects the results so much and is substantially cheaper and healthier. I also don’t cook with those milk substitutes or margarine and prefer more whole food ingredients. There is no nutritional information for the recipes. I would have liked a few healthier recipes too. These definitely should be just occasional treats. I’m sure they are very crave worthy, just not a great fit for my needs.

I read a temporary digital copy of this book for review.

My nephew is dairy intolerant so buying sweet treats for him is difficult, this cookbook changes that. Recipes that need no adjusting and are perfect to start with!
The perfect Christmas gift!

It's gluten free? It's dairy free?

I kid you not. This is a banging cookbook filled with tons of delicious recipes that are all get this, gluten free and dairy free. Though I don't need to avoid gluten or dairy, this is a fantastic book for anyone.
Highly recommend.

A very well organized baking book with many delicious goods to bake and enjoy.
Totally recommend to buy and try it out. I am sadly not the greatest cook and baker, yet I didn't failed that bad while trying the sweet potato biscuits.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the arc of Craveworthy Baking. Being dairy free and recently going gluten-free has made baking very hard. This book has a lot of recipes that I want to try.
Great descriptions of items to use to make these recipes free of what you specifically need. I really appreciated the options for each recipe and the care it took from the Author to research so that all of these option could be given.

I can’t wait to start baking.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for letting me review this book. The photos were gorgeous! The recipes fudht have a lot ingredients nor a ton of steps. I definitely can’t wait to make some of these recipes!

If you are on a gluten free and/or dairy free diet yet crave baked goods then look no further then this cookbook. It is full of recipes for amazing baked goods. I loved that every recipe includes a beautiful drool-worthy photo and the recipes seem very clear and straightforward. I liked the baking tips and equipment guide at the very beginning. I personally don’t have to have a gluten free diet but I know some people who do and this would make a great gift if a great addition to any home cook’s cookbook shelf.

**Thanks to the author and publisher for the e-arc I received via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.**

What can I say but YUM! What a wonderful baking book with so many great recipes and a lot of fun to be had in the kitchen. Not having any food related problems myself, I do always like to have a few recipes on hand for when friends come to visit that may need gluten or dairy free foods and this book works a treat.

Great photos that will make you hungry, easy to use recipes and straightforward so anyone can bake a great cake. I enjoyed reading through the pages, looking at the photos and planning my next bake (of which there will be many).

Thank you NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Fair Winds for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

There are so many beautiful recipes here that I just cannot wait to try, the addition of gluten free and dairy free is such a positive and it shows you can still make delicious recipes without them.

What a delicious looking cookbook! The pictures alone are so enjoyable. Cochran shares a large variety of baked gluten free goods, well balanced with pantry-handy ingredients to use across many, while incorporating a variety of seasonal produce, to make this a great resource for anyone not only looking for a gluten free cookbook, but also interested in trying some new recipes.

As a bread baker I really like see the gram measurements (once you start cooking by weight, you don't go back!) for increased precision.

So many tempting recipes for casual nights to more formal celebrations. Thank you to Netgalley and to Quarto Publishing Group - Fair Winds for an ARC.

Craveworthy Baking is chock full of delectable recipes. So many delicious treats all gluten and dairy free. Us GF girls miss out on many baked goods, but no more. This book has such a wide variety of recipes that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. The directions are very clear, the layout is clean and organized, and the photos are high quality. I can’t wait to get a hard copy of this awesome book.

We love to bake and have recently had to convert to a GF diet in the last six months. This cookbook was SO helpful, and we have already tried out a few of the recipes since downloading. The beginning of the book perfectly explains necessary tools, but I thought that the substitutions page was one of the most helpful pieces I've seen in any cookbook recently!

I'm very much looking forward to continuing to try a few more of these recipes. I will definitely be purchasing a physical copy for our kitchen. A special thanks to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for this ARC!

A lifesaver. Being recently put on a gluten free, dairy free diet, I was sure I would either have to give up my comfort baking hobby or risk digestive misery, but then here comes Cochran with her delightful cookbook full of lovely, tasty treats. Important to note that these desserts are not vegan, so they do have eggs and honey, but are still delicious and unlikely to cause gastrointestinal distress, which is a bonus in my book. Measurements are in imperial and metric, another lovely bonus. Try the s'mores brownies or the key lime pie for pure sugar heaven, or the bundt cake for a showstopper.
