Growing up in a Jewish home, Lisa Stander-Horel was accustomed to helping her mother make special dishes and baked goods for all the holidays. When Lisa made the decision to go gluten-free, she wanted to make sure her family could carry on those traditions as a gluten-free household.

Once she had conquered recipes for Mom’s Marble Chiffon Cake, Rugelach, Challah, and other holiday classics, she moved her focus to “everyday” sweet treats, baked goods you could “nosh” on at any time. The result is a collection of diverse recipes that elevate gluten-free baking.

Nosh on This features over 100 recipes for the gluten-free baker who craves traditional Jewish baking. From Apple Upside-Down Cake to Cherry Chocolate Mandelbrot and more, there are recipes for cookies, cakes, pies & tarts, bars & brownies, pastries, cupcakes, donuts, macaroons, quick breads, muffins, and biscuits, breads, savories, matzoh, and crackers. There’s even a bonus “Out of the Box” chapter for making the most of a gluten-free mix. Every single recipe is paired with a full-page photograph that provides the readers with an expectation of the result. Lisa’s unique recipe-writing style is explanatory to a tee, and extremely open (meaning she doesn’t shy from admitting if she had a cakewreck the first time she made something, and what she learned). Many recipes are Dairy-Free or include a Dairy-Free option.

Complete with an introduction to gluten-free flour (including a tutorial for the Horels’ special blend that can be used in each recipe) and valuable gluten-free baking tips and process photos throughout, Nosh on This is a comprehensive gluten-free baking resource. Even Bubbe will be impressed.
