INDEX
ERIN McKENNA is the founder and head baker of BabyCakes NYC and Erin McKenna's Bakery NYC, which specialize in gluten-free vegan pastries and baked goods, with outposts in New York City, Los Angeles, and Disney Springs at Downtown Disney in Orlando, Florida. This is her third book—the first to focus on savory breads. She lives with her husband and their children in New York City.
“Who knew gluten-free bread could be so amazing?! The wonderful
Erin McKenna, that’s who!”
—Nigella Lawson
“Gluten-free and vegan bread? How is that even possible? Trust Erin
McKenna. She knows what she’s doing. And she’ll have you baking in
no time.”
—Shauna Ahern
“I’ve been a fan of Erin McKenna’s BabyCakes from the start.
Everything is so good there, perfectly artistic and obviously
created with love. I have to admit that I've wolfed down some of
her cupcakes at incredibly high speed, like a pastel colored blur
from tray to mouth. Bread & Butter is a look at the wonderful
savory things a person can whip into existence—a blueprint for food
that tastes so good, made by my favorite baker. (Pastry chef? Chef?
Whatever her title is, she's my favorite.)”
—Fred Armisen
“Reckless abandonment and embracing the hilarity of imperfections
and mistakes made in the kitchen are what breaking boundaries and
recipe discovery are all about. It’s no surprise that Erin (my
hero) figured out how to crack the code of gluten-free and vegan
bread baking in the most delicious and approachable way possible!
Superwoman knows no limits, nor does her sense of humor, comfort,
or style.”
—Christina Tosi
“Erin McKenna is the only baker I trust in the totally
vegan/no-gluten scene, and she’s been slugging it out much longer
than anyone else. Erin is one of a kind and I bow down to her
genius recipes in Bread & Butter.”
—Brooks Headley
“For gluten-free baking, there are plenty of cookbooks, authorities
and guru figures claiming to have cracked the code. And many have,
to some extent. But really, when we want recipes for making GF
versions of English muffins, cinnamon raisin bread and pizza dough,
author and Babycakes owner Erin McKenna is our answer.”
—Food Republic
“One of the greatest things one person can do for another is to
take something that feels complicated and make it simple, to make
the indigestible digestible. Erin McKenna, founder of NYC's
BabyCakes Bakery, does just that with her latest cookbook, Bread &
Butter.”
