Patisserie Gluten Free is the blossoming of years of recipe development and a lifelong love of baking. Patricia makes her swoon-worthy gluten-free pastries using ingredients from nearby farms, local purveyors, and her own backyard-complete with hens, honeybees, and edible flowers growing out back. From the French Apple Cake to the simple Chocolate Sea Salt Sables, the results surprise and bring a smile to the staunchest of gluten-free skeptics.
This beautifully photographed cookbook is unique in presenting some of the tastiest treats made without gluten-classic French pastries. Home bakers will be able to create memorable European style desserts, ranging from the simple comfort of hand cookies to the ooh-la-la of elaborate puff pastries.
The book offers a wide range of recipes organized into the following chapters:
Base Recipes
Cookies in Hand
Meringues
Tarts-Rustic and Elegant
Cakes for Quiet Time and Company
Morning Pastries
Puff Pastries
Spoon Desserts
The recipes skip the commonly used gluten free binders-xanthan gum and guar gum-that are known to be of digestive sensitivity for many individuals. The takeaway is an elevated yet no fuss experience in gluten-free baking.
