Love, Bake, Nourish: Healthier Cakes and Desserts Full of Fruit and Flavor by Amber Rose (2014)

Many of us are aware of the benefits of eating seasonally and healthily, and yet often this isn’t something we consider when baking. Amber believes that cakes and puddings shouldn’t be made with refined white flour and white sugar. Her recipes use fruit and honey to give sweetness and ancient flours, such as buckwheat, spelt, and rye, to give depth of flavor.

Chapters are Seasonal Cakes; Puddings, including baked fruit, crisps, pies, sponge puddings; Tarts and Meringues; Small Bake Goods; Creams, Custards & Compotes; and Herbal Teas. Enjoy baking a Spiced Carrot Cake with a crumb topping; make Berry Good Cupcakes for the kids, create a Coconut & Passion Fruit Tart for a dinner party, or try the healthy Mince Pies with an orange zest pastry. Baking is always indulgent and comforting but, with Amber, it can be nourishing, too.
