hissingpotatoes's review against another edition
4.5
Finally, an entire collection of truly easy recipes. Plus, they look delicious and use more nutritious ingredients than traditional desserts. I love how accessible the variations and options are to match whatever your personal stock pantry includes and whatever your personal tastes/dietary needs are. The author's notes about his experiments to get to the recipes he presents really set this book apart from the rest. Highly recommend.

Collection of single serving dessert recipes. Fairly standard ingredients common to recipes means that trying things out isn't quite as expensive as other recipe collections I have seen, and most (probably all) are available at the Bulk Barn locations I have been to in Ottawa and Toronto (coconut flour is one I haven't noticed in store, but also haven't specifically looked for). Hints are given for gluten free, sugar free and Paleo substitutions, such as adding more or less of a different ingredient to handle the difference in texture or characteristics.
One thing to note: sugar is not specified in the nutritional information break down (probably as would vary depending on what is used to sweeten the recipe). There are a few online sites that let you input ingredients and quantities to give a nutritional breakdown, but would be nice if it had for the sweetener listed in the recipe to give a rough idea, as I have no idea how suitable these would be for a ketogenic diet unless stevia was used for everything, as some include fruit etc.
Despite that, an interesting starting point to think about for me.
Tried the Deep Dish Skillet Brownie and it was pretty tasty!

I really enjoyed all the options this book gave: gluten free, sugar free, vegan etc. I am also a sucker for any sweet that can be quickly whipped up!
