Gluten-Free Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day is released (scroll down for reviews)
After a long year of testing, writing, and thinking about gluten-free bread, Gluten-Free Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day was released on, October 21, 2014, available in independent bookstores, Barnes and Noble, Amazon, and all the online sellers, all over the U.S. (and actually, the world).
Cloches (French for “bell”) are stoneware enclosures that preheat beautifully and create a great result in home ovens, and they’re great for gluten-free bread just as much as my wheat loaves (they can of course be used with either). Much more information about using cloches is here on the website (posted about this last year, and also in 2009).
Reviews:
From New York Magazine’s “Nine Best Gluten-Free Cookbooks”: “… impressed with how many yeast doughs they mastered… process photos to help illustrate proper technique, making it a great option for beginners.”
From Living Without’s favorite books: “… quick artisan breads, no kneading, no proofing, not punching down… You’ll be on your way to delicious bread in no time.”
Living Free’s Gluten Free & More Magazine
“For gluten-free bread that tastes like it came from a European bakery, it’s worth the wait.”
“…I baked a flatbread for a gluten-free friend–and no one suspected it was not its floury cousin… the book’s recipes for blending your own gluten-free flours are easy and fail-safe.”
From Huffington Post’s “best cookbook gifts for the cooks and food lovers on your list”–the number one book in 2014: “Gluten-free? No worry… you can now make and enjoy pizzas and focaccia … flatbreads, soft pretzels and beignets, coffee cakes, brioches…
“Hertzberg and Francois offer foolproof recipes for (gluten-free) bread…”
“It was a sad day in [our] household when my husband… learned he had a gluten allergy… After a few practice loaves, we’re turning out small boules and baguettes that are light and flavorful… a lovely loaf of bread.”
Midwest Living
“The recipes make you wonder why you use wheat when such fabulous bread can be made without it… We can personally vouch for the doughnuts. OMG.
Minneapolis City Pages
“This method removes so many steps from the usual bread-baking process that homemade gluten-free bread every day is not only possible, it’s easy.”
“What if your home could be filled with the sweet aroma of a French bakery? And what if baking bread only took about 5 minutes of preparation time? To make matters more interesting, what if the bread was gluten-free?… Gluten-free bread in five minutes, yes you can.”
“Some of you mentioned that this sounds too good to be true… I assure you it isn’t. This friends, is the real deal… a total lifesaver, a real gem and it needs to be in your cookbook collection. Know someone gluten free? Give them this book and quickly become their hero.”
“I’ve long been a lover of their approach… and this is no exception… fantastic… If you’re gluten-free, you really don’t have to live a life without great bread.”
“… I am one happy gluten-free foodie! … I love this cookbook because it includes everything I ever dreamt about enjoying again and more! … recipes are so easy and I have to say that it was love at first bite.”
“What if your home could be filled with the sweet aroma of a French bakery? And what if baking bread only took about 5 minutes of preparation time? To make matters more interesting, what if the bread was gluten-free?… Gluten-free bread in five minutes, yes you can.”
“… a dream to someone who longs for homemade, freshly baked gluten-free goods… it’s already changed my entire gluten-free baking game!”
“I made gluten-free bread and it didn’t suck… It was beautiful!!!… Also it tasted very good. My gluten-free [Thanksgiving] table, for mostly non-gluten-free people, really enjoyed it. It was not grainy; it was moist and had that crunchy outer layer.”
“… looks and sounds too good to be true, that is, until you try the recipes and see for yourselves: gluten-free bread works… up to their usual high standards… another wonderful bread book… no commercial gluten-free bread will come close to theirs.”

My 5 yr old son and I are both gluten intolerant – it would be amazing to win this! He misses bread!
I do so miss great homemade bread! Most gluten free bread is not even edible. Looking forward to these recipes. Would love to win and start baking!
I’m continually amazed at how good gluten free breads can be – and your recipes are the best!!
Congratulations on your newest book. I have people in my life who choose to be gluten free so will look forward to some baking for them.

Pick me, pick me!!!!!! My son and future daughter-in-law in one month are gluten free. Would love to be able to bake bread for them in this cloche!
Awesome news. Can’t wait for it! Thanks for the update ;-D
My wife has been hinting about wanting a cloche for Christmas! She loves the AB in 5 books, and has been looking forward to the new gluten free one as her mother has celiac disease.
I enjoy baking bread again since I found your books and website!
Every time I bake my husband says that he is in paradise!I am so happy that we found your great book of recipes! We are so excited about your new book! Thanks for doing a great job!
Good luck to everyone! What a wonderful giveway. I use your other books on a weekly basis. My youngest son eats gluten free and with us being stationed overseas our gluten free options are limited. This cookbook would drastically change our lives; no more fighting for the few loaves of gluten free bread in freezer at the store and sometimes going without because there was not enough frozen loaves ordered. I can’t wait for this book to get released!
Congratulations on your newest book on GF baking! Best wishes. Please enter my name into the drawing for the baking cloche. I’d LOVE one ps. My fav color is red. 😉
I am sooo excited about this book!!!
I was just getting going on Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day when multiple family members were diagnosed and subsequently went gluten-free. It will be fun to try some proven gluten-free methods for them.
I’d love to win this!
Congratulations

Yummy Bread!
My dad has been baking your original breads for years, can’t wait to see what gluten free options you have in store!
I love your other books – can’t wait to get this one, too.
I would love to own this book and cloche.
I’ve loved your “Healthy Bread in Five Minutes” book – I’ve baked several of the recipes from it! The techniques are great. I’d love to try baking with a cloche – I’ve aimed for similar effect with a stoneware bowl, but it’s just not the same.
Great looking cloche!
I pre-ordered the book ages ago and can’t wait for tomorrow. Will be drooling, I’m sure.
My father love bread but should stay away from gluten. I was going to pick this book up for the holidays. The Cloche would be awesome for the 3 loaves of gluten-full bread that we already bake a week plus the gluten free ones for him.
Congrats!
Just getting into bread making and its hard when your main co-eater is a gluten free person. The book will be amazing help!
Would love to have a cloche! Can’t wait to try “Gluten Free …”. Amazed you can make gluten free that’s good.
Thanks for the giveaway.
Looks nice!
What great news! I look forward to your new book.
Excited for the new book to come out!!
Nice!
I’m so excited for this book! I love the whole wheat and original books. I’ve got a growing group of girlfriends who can’t do gluten, so i plan to pick this one up for a friend.
eager to read this cookbook
