May 27, AJ rated it liked it Shelves: The thing about this cookbook that rubbed me the wrong way is that most of the recipes call for Ener-G Egg Replacer. I feel like that's an admission that these recipes are somehow lacking in something that non-vegan recipes aren't.
A good vegan recipe should work around the lack of eggs without Ener-G, as there are at least 10 things you can use as egg replacers that aren't called "Egg Replacer. Things li The thing about this cookbook that rubbed me the wrong way is that most of the recipes call for Ener-G Egg Replacer. Things like, grease a baking sheet, mix the dough, and then wait an hour. Then put the dough on the baking sheet. Why grease a baking sheet an hour before its use? I also accidentally made 3x of a recipe because I used triple the water without realizing it until I got to the end of the recipe.
Other than that, lots of recipes in here. At this point I already have a cookie cookbook, a cupcake cookbook, a quick-bread cookbook and an amazingly easy and delicious brownie recipe, so I'm only bookmarking a few recipes. It's not a cook book I'm dying to go out and purchase for my own library. Best part of the cookbook is the soft pretzel recipe. I made them and they were a definite hit at a party. And I was even glad I had made three times too many! Sep 26, Connie added it Shelves: I'm so excited to get my hands on this book. I checked it out from my local library, but I can tell I'm going to need to buy it.
It's got so many of my favorites; things I thought I'd never be able to have again after acquiring a dairy intolerance. I am especially excited to try out the cinnamon rolls and the Russian Tea Cakes. There are all kinds of cheesecakes and quick breads that look quite yummy, too.
Apr 08, Monika rated it really liked it. This book is like a gateway drug for new vegans who want to expand their baking repertoire beyond cupcakes and zucchini bread!
While a bit too reliant on heavily processed ingredients read: Earth Balance , it's a great way to regain confidence making scratch crusts and the like. The chapter on substituting traditional ingredients with vegan subs is nice, and the appendix about how to sub different sized pans is invaluable.
Jan 06, Kerry rated it it was amazing Recommended to Kerry by: Probably my favorite vegan cookbook. Everything I have made from this book has been absolutely amazing. My boyfriend and I have a special fondness for the Apple Cobbler: It also has lots of tips for vegan cooking which are very useful. I recommend book this for everyone, vegan or non-vegan!
Nov 30, Allison rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: Finally, a book that tells you just how delicious vegan baking can be. It's got all your traditional favorites! I have made multiple recipes for non-vegans and they love everything and have bought the book. Open your mind and your mouth and your tummy will thank you! Oct 09, Molly Elwood rated it it was amazing. The recipes are easy to follow, with sumptuous photographs that make me want to try everything. Right now, the book practically falls open to the chocolate chip cookie recipe, which I've made upwards of 10 times since buying this book.
Again--this is a must. Discover all recipes that will become staples and the recipes you pass down to your grandkids.
Mar 05, Stephanie rated it really liked it Shelves: There's a lot of recipes in here that I've also seen in other books not same measurements. There are a couple of recipes in here that I am going to try out. I'm excited to try that one, especially because I've been trying to find a asian bakery bread recipe.
Apr 16, Joanna T rated it really liked it. I ended up purchasing this cookbook since it had many of the familiar recipes I have traditionally made but substituted vegan, plant-based ingredients rather than the dairy and eggs I am so familiar with using. I have been very happy with the results. Aug 27, Debra rated it it was amazing.
Oct 26, M. Carroll rated it really liked it. Good basic explanations of ingredient choices and options, including recipes for making rice milk, almond milk, and cashew milk. Several egg replacers are explained, along with recommendations for which baked goods they work best in. Several recipes use Ener-G Egg Replacer. A standard range of baked goods breads, cookies, pies, scones, etc.
These recipes are not for health food - they are for making decadent treats for people who choose not Good basic explanations of ingredient choices and options, including recipes for making rice milk, almond milk, and cashew milk. These recipes are not for health food - they are for making decadent treats for people who choose not to eat animal products. The dough is fabulous - light, tender, with a thin golden crust. I plan to tweak the proportions of the filling much too much non-dairy butter, not quite enough spice and cut back on the amount of icing, as it's too sweet for my taste.
I have cut the amount of non-dairy butter and sugar in the filling drastically and doubled the amount of spice. Next I'm thinking about cutting the amount of fat in the dough - it's not for nutritional reasons, but because I think the dough will be lighter in texture. A personal texture preference. I used softened butter instead. I used mango instead of strawberry. The dough was really thick and needed to be scooped, not poured as the recipe says to. The texture is light and the top crust was wonderfully crunchy, but they did not taste like mango one of the tasters thought they were pumpkin, another said they tasted like corn.

Feb 23, Christy Baker rated it it was amazing Shelves: This is hands down the best cookbook I've used on vegan baking. Many vegan recipes I've tried over the years for baked goods either leave the item leaden or so dry, crumbly and flavorless that if I were actually vegan instead of vegetarian , I'd really just want to skip all sweets all together. This cookbook makes treats, whether a special dessert or mid-morning brunch item, that I'd make whether I was trying to accommodate a vegan or not. Originally, I used this as a go-to for a couple of frie This is hands down the best cookbook I've used on vegan baking.
Originally, I used this as a go-to for a couple of friends who could not digest eggs due to an allergy. The results were quite good on both the rich chocolate cake as well as the muffins that I took to work.
Perhaps the best feature of The Joy of Vegan Baking is the invaluable section in the front that describes which kinds of substitutions are best for different types of vegan baking; this allows you to get a sense for how to adapt recipes from other sources and not just use the recipes contained within this book. Finally, I'd say the appendices, glossary, resource section and multiple indices make this a user friendly book. Sep 16, Jessica rated it it was amazing Shelves: Yum - beautiful photos and fail-safe recipes.
This cookbook is a hit! A few recipe reviews -- Apple Pie: The recipe for the filling was spot on, and I loved the suggestion to sprinkle cinnamon sugar on the top crust. That said, the initial baking temperature degrees was too hot and nearly burned the crust, and not cooking the apples first resulted in a pie with a lot of air inside the top crust because the apples shrunk during baking.
