Giveaway! Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day

Every so often, I treat my readers to something neat. Today, it’s a gorgeous, healthy, and practical book:

In past giveaways, readers with Facebook but not Twitter felt they’re at a disadvantage. So this time, I’m creating a Facebook Exclusive Giveaway because I’m choosy like that ; )

1. Explains the science behind ingredient choices and techniques in plain terms for baking dummies like me.
2. Although the whole loaf won’t magically appear in 5 minutes, it honestly only requires 5 minutes of prep for fresh bread daily.
3. Provides many suggestions and alternatives to add nutrients and fibre without compromising flavour and texture.
4. The “Master Recipe” is very versatile towards a variety of applications.
5. The techniques are straight forward and illustrated.
6. There is a good mix of traditional breads (e.g. baguette, bagel, challah, focaccia) and innovative recipes (e.g. zucchini flatbread, toasted millet and fruit bread, guacamole bread…)
7. Includes Gluten-Free bread and pastry recipes and ratios for substitutions.
8. Has an entire section dedicated to desserts and pastries for that sweet tooth!
9. Did I mention healthy and easy corn bread? pizza crust? muffins? burger buns? sandwich loaf? crackers? breadsticks? the list goes on…
10. It’s about time to face your fear of “carbs”, right? This book breaks down the benefits of “good carbs” to counter misconceptions.

The homemade bread revolution continues, with healthy new recipes.

HEALTHY BREAD IN FIVE MINUTES A DAY whips up fabulous breads made with more whole grains, fruits and vegetables. The secret? Mix up a lightning-fast batch of moist no-knead dough, save it in your refrigerator, tear off portions over the next week or more, shape, and bake.
