The book is well organized and has a great variety of baked goods and the photos are lovely. However, nearly every single recipe requires coconut flour and/or coconut milk which makes everything taste like coconut. I'm not a fan of coconut and I'm especially not a fan of my savory goods tasting like coconut - flatbreads, breadsticks, tortillas, biscuits, bagels... seriously, every recipe asks for it which to me is not the true mark of a successful alternative. Overall,, a disappointment since I won't be able to use hardly any of the recipes. But for someone who enjoys coconut and isn't a stickler for accurate translation from non-keto foods - this will be a great resource.

OMG...LOVE this book! Can't wait until it comes out and I can get a hard copy! I was a bit skeptical at first because the author uses a lot of coconut flour which I, personally, have not had great success with but thanks to her recipes I feel much better and more confident working with it. Have tried about 13 recipes out of the book and have enjoyed them all and so has my non-Keto hubby. Great book!

Everyday Keto Baking is an essential cookbook geared towards anyone looking to bake using keto-friendly ingredients. This book includes more than 80 recipes that use low-carb baking flours, such as almond flour (and other nut flours), and coconut flours, as well as low-carb sweeteners (Erythritol)

The first section covers ingredients such as flour—coconut flour which is gluten-free and grain-free, low-carb sweetness which is divided into two categories: those that have “bulk” (stevia and monk fruit) and those that don’t.

It also covers milk and creams (diary-based, and diary-free milk such as coconut, hazelnut, and almond milk.

The recipes include biscuits (Cheddar Biscuits, Drop Biscuits), Cheesy Bagel, Pumpkin bread, Fluffy pancakes, Muffins, Waffles Yellow Cake, Chocolate Layer Cake, Coconut Cake and Brownies.
You will find more recipes on soups and smoothies

At the end of this book, is a list of ingredients, low-carb sweeteners, and equipment.

Thank you to Erica Kerwien, NetGalley, and Quarto Publishing Group – Fair Winds Press for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

With a number of recipes that use mostly coconut and almond flours, this book is a good choice for those looking for kept baking options. Besides emphasizing gluten-free baking, it also uses & discusses sugar substitutes and dairy-free options.

Inexplicably though, this book on baking includes two rather long chapters on soups and non-baked savory dishes. While some of the recipes look good, I can't figure out why they are there except that the author writes a cooking blog.

This was a complimentary copy from net galley - many thanks

As someone recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, I am always on the lookout for anything that could help me.

What I have learned is that baked goods, pastry - all the tasty stuff is about the worst thing for a diabetic so I was particularly interested when I saw this on the site and thrilled to be gifted it from the publishers.

This is easy to read and follow. Great recipes that are easy to recreate (I've already started) - health tips, dietary advice - not preachy at all

I feel I now have a much better understanding about keto - which I confess have found a little confusing.

The book itself is really well set out, great pictures

The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been to have had it in kindle format - would have liked to be able to have it on my kindle for portability

I enjoyed reading this cookbook with the satisfaction of not being overwhelmed. The information given in this cookbook is easy to read and understand, which is nice for someone, like me, who is new to keto. The recipes are easy to follow. I have already made two of the deserts and are so delicious! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is starting the keto journey.

I love everything about this cookbook. It is not difficult to live a Ketogenic lifestyle in general because you can eat meat and cheese, and lots of veggies. However, when it comes to baked goods, including both sweet and savory indulgences, it can be difficult to find good recipes. This cookbook is full of them! My mouth was literally watering at all of the fantastic breads, and desserts! One of the tough things about eating Ketogenically is missing sweets at parties. There is every option here to make sweets that aren't fat bombs or cheesecake fluff, but real downhome comfort food desserts like brownies, cobblers, cookies, and cake. I also thought the savory main dishes in the last section of the book sounded delicious. I recommend this book to anyone who eats a ketogenic or low carb diet. Everyday Keto Baking is a must have for your low carb/keto cookbook collection!

While I still don't concretely follow the keto diet, I'm always open to finding alternatives for baked goods - which is a rare treat. Trying to figure out food allergies/irritations at this point, this book is really helpful in terms of keeping with recipes that are diary, nut, grain, gluten-free. The book has beautiful pictures, a great design for layout, and recipes that are easy to follow (and numbered -yes!) I'm planning to try the 'chocolate chip scones with coconut flour' recipe next and I'm incredibly happy with the results so far.

Great book for Keto Baking. The book gives good advice on Keto diets and valuable information on the ingredients used.. There are all sorts of recipes within the book including bread, cakes and biscuits. The book has great illustrations although not every recipe is pictured.

The book would also be useful for people with allergies and intolerances as many of the recipes are gluten and dairy free.

Cant wait to try some of these recipes out over the coming weeks.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an advance copy of this title in exchange for an unbiased review.

Love all of the great, refreshing ideas for a Keto/low-carb diet!

I have yet to try the recipes out but I thoroughly enjoyed the variety, especially when it comes to the bread and donuts, something you can't have much of due to carb intake.

Aside from that, the author keeps the recipe list minimal, the directions very clear to understand and I can't wait to try them out!
