The recipes were all very simple and easy to follow. The ingredients were all easy to find and there were even suggestions for substitutions. Can't wait to give a few of these a try!

This had a lot of interesting recipes and was well organized. I had chosen to look through this just to get some different recipes. I did find it off putting for all the coconut based ingredients, I hate coconut flavored stuff but I believe if I would have been willing I could have substituted other milks and flours.

Everyday Keto Baking
by Erica Kerwien
Fair Winds Press, July 2019

I've been following a low-carb diet for about six months now, and the one type of food I really did miss was baked goods! Not so much the sugar side, but rather the texture and "mouth-feel" of pastry etc.

Eliminating wheat flour does limit the number of traditional cake/biscuit/pastry recipes you can use due to the vagaries of substituting and using coconut flour or almond flour - you really do need a specialist book from someone who has plenty of experience using alternative flours, and I am delighted to say that for me, this book works admirably, providing detailed but easily understandable guidance.

Even if you are completely new to low-carb or keto, this book will help you through each step to enable you to produce beautiful and delicious home-baked items for the whole family to enjoy. If you have family members who need to have dairy-free recipes, you can substitute with nut milks and even easily substitute for eggs if necessary.

I am trying to reduce the amount of processed sweeteners I use to a minimum as I am finding my tastebuds are now appreciating many foodstuffs as being naturally sweet enough, but this book is fabulous if you are happy to use sweeteners in your cooking or if you are new to this way of eating. There is no need to miss out on your favourite indulgences any more, or feel guilty about eating them.

Enjoy!

Thanks to the publisher for allowing me a free digital copy of the book via NetGalley in return for my honest opinion and review.

Great book with interesting ideas. I like it has variations of normal food in it too. It has a great range of recipes for various meats and meals I think I’ll enjoy

This book has some deliciously enticing recipes for baked good for those following a keto diet. This book succinctly goes through the alternatives for common ingredients to fit in with the requirements of the diet. It also has recipes to make some lovely butters to either use as part of the recipes in the book or as part of other parts of your keto diet.

This cookbook has a huge amount of information for anyone that is going to do low carb baking. I am not trying to do keto, but I need to lower my blood sugar. Using the recipes in this book, I can make chocolate muffins, cinnamon strudel bread, or pancakes without raising my blood sugar. Erica, also, includes countless tips - sugar substitution chart, how to make almond flour, different types of flour ....

I will be using the yummy recipes from this book for many years to come. Thank you netgalley for allowing me to read this book in exchange for my honest review.

This is a delightful little book for the Keto Baker. I love the information on the different flours, tips on substitutions and the warnings about conversions.

When looking through this book, you will be surprised that there are such beautiful recipes for the Keto eater. There are so many of your favourite baked goods and even a section on Savory Bites and meals which is just a bonus for me.

The recipes are easy to follow, the book is well set out and I am thrilled to find a great little cookbook to buy for my Keto Diet friends.

Thanks to NetGalley, Quarto Publishing Group - Fair Winds Press and Erica Kerwin for the opportunity to read and review this book.

I don't follow a keto diet, but I'm always down for a good cookbook, especially ones that have some healthy alternatives. I really enjoyed this cookbook and can't wait to try out some of the recipes!

Really enjoyed this Keto cookbook. There are so many on the market, it's hard to decide what to keep or kick out of your collection. I can confidently endorse Everyday Keto Baking because it keeps recipes simple, it gives us a list of easy-to-come-by ingredients that I can find at any local store. I've been dieting so long, I've forgotten just how much I love to bake--and this cookbook finally gives me that option back.

I found Chapter 1 "Getting Started with Keto baking" the most informative. It explains all the various low-carb flours; sweeteners; good oils and fats & milk and creams in easy to understand language. It is great information for the beginner in the Keto diet to know what to buy; how to measure it out and how to store it.
The recipes themselves are well-laid out. Each has clear instructions along with all the ingredients needed and the nutrition values per serving. I liked the ****-free information at the top of each recipe; great if you've got specific eating issues ie no dairy; no gluten.
The recipes are also well classed in their various chapters.
A great selection of stunning photographs through out the book make ones mouth water.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me the chance to read this book.

I received a copy of this book in return for a review and my honest opinion.
I don't follow the Keto eating plan per se. However, I was really excited when I read the description of this book because I love to bake but I can't eat grains of any kind, or sugar (including artificial or natural ones).
I had had a few run-ins previously with coconut flour and adapting my favourite recipes to use it rather than normal flour. For anyone who hasn't used it before, coconut flour needs a lot more liquid and can have quite a gritty texture - so just be aware before you start.
I absolutely loved the section at the beginning of the book which specifically looks at the different ingredient types, including coconut flour and almond meal/flour. I got some great insights for where I'd gone wrong before.
I made 2 of the recipes this weekend: Drop Biscuits and Pumpkin muffins.
The former weren't great. I had to up the amount of flour to a full cup before it was mushy enough to drop onto the baking sheet. While they tasted delicious smothered in sugar-free plum jam and whipped cream, they were a little rubbery in texture. Where did I go wrong? Possibly the different ingredients in this part of the world? I don't know.
I've just tasted my second Pumpkin mini muffin - it is absolutely divine! And I managed to figure out where I was supposed to add the flour.
I won't get to try all the recipes in this book (sweeteners cause a problem) but I look forward to trying more,

Such in insight into what your body does with certain foods ...Im really interested in this as I’m on my own weight loss journey and these recipes look really good and tasty using things I’ve never used before xx wish me luck and Thankyou x

What I love about Everyday Keto Baking is the variety of recipes it has. It doesn't focus solely on sweets but lots of yummy savory baked dishes like Mexican lasagna and coconut shrimp. I also was really happy they had a handful of frosting and ganache recipes for cakes and cupcakes. I can't wait to give some of these recipes a try especially the cinnamon streusel cake.

A nice selection of items to make. Easy to follow instructions. A nice addition for those who want a new book for keto baking and other food items.

All my life, it has been suggested to me that I do the keto diet. Even before it was the big thing, in fact. (I have epilepsy and keto is highly recommended along with medication to help with frequency and severity of seizures)
But it's always been intimidating to me because I wasn't sure exactly, aside from bacon, steak, and cheese, that I could eat. Also, I really love garlic bread and the world is a better place when I can eat it.

This cookbook offered a rundown on the types of flours and sugars that are keto friendly, why they are, and even why certain ones don't work with keto. Basically, with a little effort on my part, I can still have brownies, and garlic bread. I liked a lot of the recipes and I liked that a lot of them had interchangeable ingredients (and Kerwien explains why and when ingredients can be substituted) and that even in my non-keto kitchen I already have the stuff I need to make a few things.

But the garlic-cauliflower breadsticks are 100% my first recipe so I can convince the other people in the house that keto is not all meat and sadness. Then we'll move onto espresso brownies with icing. Or bagels. The possibilities are not limited!

Everyday Keto Baking is an accessible and easy to follow low carb cookbook which includes quite a number of dessert recipes which are often difficult to find in low/no carb versions. Released 30th July 2019 by Quarto on their Fair Winds imprint, it's 160 pages and available in paperback and ebook formats.

I'm not on a low carb diet, however I am insulin resistant and when taking dishes to shared food gatherings, it's nice to have an alternative which anyone can eat which is tasty (#1 priority) and guilt-free.This cookbook includes a number of tasty recipes which satisfy the craving for breads, cakes, cookies, and those sweet desserts which usually don't fit into a ketogenic diet.

The introduction provides some very basic background and definitions for keto diet, what it is, where it's appropriate, sourcing storing and using low-carb flours, sweeteners, etc. Sidebars scattered throughout refine and build on the main text information and provide extra tips and tricks for food prep.

The following chapters progress through: breads biscuits & pizza, waffles pancakes muffins & donuts, cakes & cupcakes, brownies cookies & bars, pies & tarts, soups & smoothies, and savory bites & meals.

Though the book is aimed at readers in North America, the ingredients and measures are conveniently also given in SI units (grams, ml, etc). I know a fair number of diabetics use kitchen scales which are calibrated and measure in SI units, so having the measurements already pre-converted is a time saver.

There's an index along with a short resource links list (slanted toward readers in North America) which provides some tips about sourcing ingredients and equipment.The ingredients are (mostly) easily sourced and should be available from any large well stocked grocery like Whole Foods.

Well written and easy to follow.

Four stars

This book has a large variety of keto baked goods to choose from and is a great resource for those on the keto or low carb diet. I really wish it was available in kindle format though!!!

Marketed for keto fans, Everyday Keto Baking is also perfect for those sensitive to gluten, eggs, nuts, or dairy. Each recipe is clearly labeled with calories and amounts of protein, carbs, and fats. Almost all the recipes include a picture making deciding what to make first the hardest part.

The best thing about Everyday Keto Baking is that it only requires two types of flour: almond and coconut. Everyone knows that if they see a gluten-free label on bread or cakes (even mixes), the price will be at least double of one made with wheat flour. This cookbook has recipes for all those expensive products like waffles, pancakes, muffins, sandwich rolls, and cakes. But it also has items rarely seen in stores like donuts, crepes, popovers, and tiramisu.

Most of the recipes have many ingredients that you will already have in your pantry. Along with the sweets and breads are about twelve main dishes like salmon croquettes and coconut shrimp. Everything looks yummy, easy to make, and inexpensive so 5 stars!

Thanks to Fair Winds Press and NetGalley for a copy in exchange for my honest review.

This is a really great book because it helps solve a really big problem - how to bake sweets while on keto! I loved the recipes, the layout was easy, the flow was good, the pictures were beautiful, and the instructions were clear.

A wonderful book for anyone who is Keto!

This book is a great addition to any keto Baker! I love to bake but sometimes struggle with keto recipes, because some have weird ingredients. The recipes that come in this book look like something even beginners can handle.. The author covers some basics on flours and other ingredients needed in keto baking which I appreciated. She even gives a short explanation of counting carbs and how to do it. The recipes look delicious! I can't wait to try them all. The pictures are beautiful. I really want to try her cheesy bagels! I would definitely recommend!
