Description
If you follow a gluten-free or dairy-free diet, or both, you know how challenging it can be to find and adapt recipes for it—especially for baked goods. Author Danielle Cochran (The Salty Cooker) knows this struggle well. She’s spent years adapting and refining recipes to work without dairy and gluten and to be just as delectable as the original. Every recipe she creates must pass the test: “No one will know this is gluten-free and dairy-free.”
Delicious results aside, what sets Danielle’s recipes apart from other gluten-free and dairy-free recipes is their flexibility. If you don’t need to cut the dairy or gluten, you can swap in traditional ingredients 1:1—no math required!
In Craveworthy Baking, Danielle shares her ultimate collection of recipes. As you dive into creating them, she will be at your side with tips for perfecting your baking techniques, modifying the recipes to suit your preferences, and presenting them with flair.

"Craveworthy Baking" is a delightful recipe book that completely won me over from the start. Each page is filled with stunning photos of sweet treats that made my mouth water, and the best part is that all the recipes are gluten and dairy free! This is usually where baking becomes a challenge for me, but not with this book. It offers an array of delicious options that cater to my dietary needs without (hopefully) sacrificing taste. I'm excited to try out several of these recipes and indulge in some guilt-free baking. This book is a true treat for anyone looking to enjoy delicious, allergy-friendly bakes!
Thank you Netgalley and Quarto Publishing house for my ARC copy. Delicious looking desserts that I wanted to make immediately.
Uncomplicated gluten-free and dairy-free baking! I just finished binge-watching 4 seasons of The Great British Bake Off so getting this cookbook came at the perfect time, as an avid baker I'm happy to report that the recipes include gram measurements, as well as regular cup ones!! It's hit and miss with some cookbooks and how they measure ingredients, but if you bake a lot, you know how important it is to weigh ingredients. This book gives you simple recipes that don't compromise on flavour while remaining delicious and easy to execute, I can feel the Paul Hollywood handshake coming my way!
Thank you NetGalley and Danielle Cochran for providing the ARC!
The layout of this book is beautiful! It its easy to read and I love the breakdown of the ingredients and baking/cooking steps. I gravitated towards this books because I'd love to bake more and often find myself making the same things over and over. AND I'm lactose intolerant, so these recipes are perfect. I can still enjoy delicious treats and not upset my stomach. My husbands birthday was yesterday and I made the "Gooey S'mores Brownies (I make him brownies every year as opposed to a cake) and they were amazing!! I can't stress it enough at how good they were! "I cannot wait to get my hands on this book when it hits stores, I'll be adding it to my cookbook collection.
Thank you Netgalley and Quarto Publishing house for my ARC copy.
This is such a good cookbooks. It is so nice for there to be a completely dairy and gluten free baking based cookbook. As someone who is lactose intolerant and loves baking, I really love how easy the recipes are, and how accessible and easy to find the ingredients are.
Flipping through 'Craveworthy Baking' is enough to get your mouth watering and your motivation reignited to get back into baking or even trying it for the first time in a real way. Cochran details dietarily accessible recipes that look divine in the gorgeous visuals, while not feeling overwhelming to tackle. Genuinely left reading this cookbook with loads of recipes I want to try, both classics and new-to-me, that now no longer feel out of reach.
I want to try every single recipe in this lovely baking cookbook. There are the classics, such as Angel Food Cake and Cinnamon Rolls. To new ideas, like Peaches and Cream Cheesecake Bars. There is also a section of popular types of breads, and it is even better since they are gluten free recipes. I sure am excited to try these!

Great compilation of dairy free and gluten free recipes. I work as a baker and we are always looking for new recipes to try, specially this kind to help accommodate peoples dietary needs. I like the page on measurements, weight and temperatures, it is very useful. Also the the bit on emergency baking substitutions, very helpful and handy too. The recipes are done very well with good variety, easy to understand and precise. I can't wait to try and make some of this recipes like the Peanut Butter and Jelly Oatmeal Bars, the S'mores Brownies or the Gingerbread Cupcakes for the holidays.
Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - Fair Winds for the opportunity to read this ARC and share my honest review.
I am not a cookie/biscuit or cake fan - I only like a few types and I can live without those. Though, when I wish to bake cakes for my loved ones (they make amazing gifts and motivational sparks), I need recipes like in this book - easy, quick, accessible but still wholesome and rich.
In other words, this is a rich and very well-presented book with recipes for cakes, cookies, breads (yes, there are savoury bakes included), cupcakes, desserts like creme brûlée. Pure excellence.
A new cookbook that features recipes that are both gluten free and dairy free. I liked the variety here, plus there were pictures for every recipes, which I love! I also like that Cochran created recipes where you can just easily substitute flour with gluten and normal butter without really any modifications (maybe time a little, but no weird ingredient rearranging, etc.).
I absolutely love everything about this book. Finally, a cook book for us that are lactose and gluten intolerant. This books shows that we can still eat yummy found without experiencing nasty effects of our intolerances. Highly recommend.
I initially applied for Craveworthy Baking because I have a friend whose child has allergies, and I saw this as a great opportunity to increase my knowledge and potentially provide some tasty treats.
I loved that the book contained varying levels of difficulty in the recipes, with simple options and more complex bakes suited to different occasions. I also realized that my pantry was woefully underprepared.
The layout of the book was fantastic, and the pictures of the cakes and bakes made me crave them!
My a short review for this book
Craveworthy Baking is an absolute gem that captivated me from the very first page. The book is packed with mouthwatering recipes, all gluten and dairy-free, that don’t compromise on flavor or texture. As someone who often struggles with allergy-friendly baking, I was thrilled to find such a diverse selection of treats that cater to my dietary needs. From rich cookies to indulgent cheesecakes, every recipe promises to deliver delicious results. I can't wait to dive into these recipes and enjoy some guilt-free baking. This book is a must-have for anyone seeking tasty, allergy-friendly delights!

Craveworthy Baking by Danielle Cochran is jam-packed with wondrous recipes to satisfy any gluten-free and lactose-free craving, sweet or savoury. Often cookbooks contain a handful of favourites but this is different. Nearly all of them excite me!
I was diagnosed with celiac and lactose intolerance fifteen years ago (no longer lactose intolerant) and am an experienced and passionate baker. New gluten-free books on the market always grab my attention. Some are ho hum, others good. But this one fills a creativity, originality and innovation void. Whilst many recipes are classics, others are new and bold. Just what my baking soul needs. To be clear, though this book contains tips, ingredients and emergency substitutes, gluten-free and lactose-free information is not comprehensive. But if recipes are what you crave, this is for you. The photographs are mouthwatering and inspiring.
The Basque Cheesecake with Strawberry Sauce is incredibly good. Basque Cheesecake has been a regular in our household for several years. Recipes on my list to make include Chocolate Caramel Revel Bars, Banana Bread Cookies, Strawberry Shortcake Blondie Bars, Orange Creamsicle Cupcakes, Cream Puffs with Butterscotch Pastry Cream, Éclairs, (I haven't made cream puffs or eclairs for a few years...hello, butterscotch pastry cream), Soft Baked Pretzels and Cheese and Scallion Scones. If those don't sound sublime nothing will.
My sincere thank you to Quarto Publishing Group - Fair Winds and NetGalley for providing me with an early digital copy of this delectable book.
Having followed a gluten free lifestyle in my past, I understand the trouble it is to convert recipes using wheat flour to gluten free flour. In Craveworthy Baking, Danielle Cochran has taken the guess work out of gluten free baking and given us a treasure trove of go to recipes for any occasion. I appreciate that she used mainly a 1:1 GF flour blend in the recipes, instead of using a ton of different blends of flours that will just fill my pantry. While she lists a preferred brand of GF bread flour, I wish she would have included her preferred brand of GF 1:1 AP flour, as this different can effect recipes. If it was mentioned, I didn't see it. (I use Bob's Red Mill GF 1:1 and like the results) The first recipe I try from any baking cookbook is the chocolate cookie recipe because I believe that if the author can't get that recipe right, then they probably won't get the rest of the recipes right. I'm happy to report that these chocolate cookies were perfect, passing my test of sharing with friends and them not believing that they could possibly be gluten free. Thank you Danielle for a deliciously beautiful book!
What a fab guide for gluten-free and dairy-free baking! That cover grabbed me and the delicious recipes for cookies, cakes, bread, cupcakes, and bars kept my mouth watering. Perfect for bakers at all levels.
Love how the author has included the universal equivalents for measurement and temperature. There is a section for baking substitutes and essential kitchen ware. Easy to follow instructions, with pictures. Can’t wait to try the Strawberry Shortcake Blondie Bars or the Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls. This has quickly become my favorite cookbook.
This one grabbed me in from the cover. It is beautiful and well organized. I immediately wanted to go into the kitchen and get to baking. Lots of mouth watering recipes to cure any sweet tooth
Delicious and simple enough recipes anyone can make and enjoy! Though I'm not gluten-free, I do have several family members who are, and I know will deeply appreciate the effort. I love that the measurements are written in both cups and grams (as this is something every baker struggles with). Definitely recommend!
This book is amazing! Not only do the recipes sound delicious, the design and photos really tied it all together nicely! I’ve all ready marked my favorites and will definitely give it a shot!
I’m always happy to find new gluten free recently as it is hard to find well tasting gluten free and dairy free recipes
Having recently started our gluten-free journey with my child's celiac diagnosis, getting a first look at this gluten-friendly cookbook was fantastic timing.
The recipes are well written and look easy to follow. Accessible techniques and ingredients are key to a cookbook's success, especially when the bakers in question are already making changes like removing gluten or dairy. The pictures are beautiful. While this counts for artistic merit, and not technica merit, it counts for a lot. Food should be a feast for all the senses and this cookbook delivers. As an added bonus, there is lots of great information on products, substitutions and tools to make transitioning to gluten or dairy-free cooking and baking much easier. That section alone is worth the book price as a reference for any kitchen.
Several recipes are in our line up to try, and I am recommending this book to all my fellow celiac parents.
I have been looking for gluten-free desert recipes for the holidays. This cookbook is exactly what I was looking for! I'm looking forward to making many of these recipes over the holidays and for Sunday morning brunches. The cookbook includes desert staples such as chocolate chip (and walnut) cookies, peanut butter sandwich cookies, and monkey bread to holiday goodies such as gingerbread cupcakes with cinnamon cream cheese frosting and pumpkin streusel muffins to elegant deserts such as pear frangipane and French fruit tart. Savory baked good recipes are included as well, including soft pretzels and pizza. If you are looking for gluten-free, dairy-free baked good recipes, look no further!
I got so excited while perusing this new gluten free cookbook! Not only does it feel accessible to all in both ingredients and comprehensive recipes, but it also includes nearly every delicious baked good you may be missing out on while gluten free! From key lime pies to cheese cake to soft pretzels, I was just amazed how they fit it all into one easy to follow book. They also have great gluten free baking tips. This one will definitely be a regular in my cookbook collection!
This is a book that will excite its intended audience of bakers who need dairy and gluten free recipes. However, those without restrictions may well want to try them too.
Following an introduction and a section on “Kitchen Essentials” there are many recipes. These are organized by categories including Cookies & Bars; Cakes & Cupcakes; Cheesecakes, Puddings & Custards; Pies, Tarts & Pastries; Sweet Breads, Muffins & Rolls; and finally, Savory Breads.
It is hard to pick a few examples of recipes as so many of them sound delicious. How about Turtle Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookies or Rainbow Confetti Cheesecake? Maybe try Pumpkin Streusel Muffins or Cathead Biscuits? There are lots of others too. For each, the directions are clear and the photos are mouthwatering.
This book looks like a terrific resource to me.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.
Danielle Cochran’s Craveworthy Baking is a unicorn, magical and rare. Finding good, easy recipes that are gluten free or dairy free is harder than you think, and finding both, *throws hands up in despair.* I have not only preordered this book, I have ordered a copy for a friend.
Now I will confess that I’ve taken my attempts at some of the recipes a step further, I made some of them sugar free too. On Sundays I bake for family dinner, and family includes 3 people who need to minimize dairy, two gluten free eaters, and two people who can no longer eat sugar. I have been adapting my cooking to people’s diets for my entire adult life. The combination of dairy free, gluten free and occasionally sugar free has been a challenge.
I started with snickerdoodles, everyone’s favorite cookie. I made one batch exactly as stated in the recipe, and one that was also sugar free (I use a monk fruit erythritol blend that gives baked goods a slightly cooling mouthfeel). Both were delicious. The sugar free cookies were puffier and cakier, but flavor wise equally good.
I made a peach pie using the pie crust recipe and was pleased with the flake. The sparkling water I used was Topo Chico. I meant to taste just the crust to see if the mineral flavor of the Topo Chico transferred, but I was distracted and then there was none left. The strawberry shortcake blondie bars were also a big hit. I appreciated the note that the bars would look underdone, but would firm up. They did look underdone and they were perfect by the time we finished dinner.
At this point, there are still a bunch of recipes I want to try but I’m also convinced that I want this cookbook. I’ll try the cinnamon roll recipe and the flan recipe once I get my hands on the physical book. It’s out on October 1.
I received this as an advance reader copy from Fair Winds Press and NetGalley. My opinions are my own, freely and honestly given.
As someone who has the biggest sweet tooth and dessert lover but also has the downfall of being coeliac and dairy free.. This book is just delicious!! The recipes are easy to follow and don't contain lots of hard to get hold of ingredients. Beautiful food photography with recipes that are great for cosy season as well as some amazing recipes that would make great gifts such as cherry biscotti and banana biscuits. Can't wait to make all of these recipes and make sure all of my gluten free and dairy free friends add this book to their Xmas list. Who wouldn't want a gluten free cinnamon roll!
Who doesn’t get the occasional sweet tooth? Now, regardless of your dietary restrictions, you are likely to find a heavenly dessert in here. Danielle Cochran took some of her own dietary restrictions and wanted more than mediocre. This book is the outcome of her efforts and attempts to create delicious dairy free and gluten free treats. You can also make the full version by using flour and dairy products, which means, there is something for everyone here! It’s a good thing too, because these desserts are delicious! The pictures alone made me want to try every single recipe! Cakes, cookies, breads, puddings, and pies all have representation. Danielle takes her time early on to explain the process and how to use the best ingredients for each recipe (not all substitutions yield the results you are looking for). I found the directions easy to follow and you will find recipes given with both US and metric measurements.
I received a copy from the publisher via NetGalley and all opinions expressed are solely my own, freely given.
All of these recipes sound delicious. I can’t wait to try some. I love the layout of each. I also love there’s a picture with recipe as well. Not to mention they’re all gluten free recipes!!! I’ve been gluten free for over 10 years now and I feel like this cookbook has some original recipes in it. Again I can’t wait to try these and just in time for fall baking season as well.
Thank you NetGalley and Fair Winds Press for an opportunity to read this cookbook.
Delicious recipes with clear instruction and beautiful pictures to compliment. I wanted to bake every recipe!
This is a fantastic recipe book! I love the addition of the emergency baking substitutions. It's really hard to find gluten free recipes that are actually good but these look delicious. I love the layout and the pictures and the recipes seem easy to follow
Definitely lives up to its title - Craveworthy Baking. This cookbook is well laid out and the recipes look delicious. I’ve picked several which I plan to try soon.
Thank you NetGalley and publishers for the opportunity to give my honest feedback!
The recipes are to die for (I can't wait to make that lovely chocolate cake!) and what I loved the most is the fact that, from the beginning, it gives you an overview of what you need, substitutions and measuring. If you're a beginner at baking (or suck at it, like me), there are some wonderful tips. My husband is vegan, so the fact that there's even an egg substitution note made me so happy!
A beautiful baking cookbook framed specific dietary needs/preferences. Mainly dairy & gluten free, tho there are several recipes that do not include eggs that could be classified as vegan. Treats such as those featured in this book can be difficult for those with these needs/preferences to find and enjoy. The photos of the products of the recipes featured In this book show light, fluffy, airy cakes and breads; very encouraging considering how dense many dairy/gluten free products can turn out. There are many helpful substitutions and conversions in the opening chapter, including recommendations for subbing out eggs (except egg whites), allowing most of the recipes to be made fully vegan if desired. I look forward to incorporating many of these recipes into my family's daily life and special occasions.
For anyone who has a special dietary need but still wants delicious baked items, this is a great book.
What I particularly loved was all the information in chapter 1. There you can see different conversions, which is nice to have in the book because searching online can yield different results. To have this in the book, the uniformity can ensure better recipes. This is really nice for ingredients like bananas, because we all know each banana has a different weight.
The emergency baking substitutions is also nice.
We made the Classic Apple Oatmeal cookies as the first recipe and I have to report they didn't last very long- every one of them were eaten within a day.
All the recipes have volume and weight measures, so it should be easy to measure each recipe when making.
This book contains nearly all the classic desserts, but with the gluten and dairy free options. No one will feel left out of this delicious cookbook.
This is the most current non-dairy and gluten-free resource that I am aware of. It is a well-written book with clear directions. The weights for the ingredients is most appreciated. I made the peanut butter cookie sandwiches. They were delicious. I will be trying more recipes and spreading the word to my dairy-free friends.
