  I’ve made 3 recipes from this book in 3 days and all have worked well and I didn’t have to buy a long list of special flours. I’ve made: Yorkshire puddings (Nigella posted the recipe for these which led me to buy the book), pasta dough and focaccia and all worked really well and tasted good using ingredients I already have in the pantry. Looking forward to trying out a few more recipes while we’re still in lockdown!

Notes about Recipes in this book

• 5-ingredient crumpets

  • etcjm on September 28, 2023

    Follow the recipe and it works! My issue was them sticking to the ring. Having done them a few times now, ensure you oil the rings and they are hot before you pour the ingredients it. Bit like you would yorkshire puddings. Beats buying GF dry horrible crumpets any day of the week.

    Have perfected this recipe over the years and make in bulk as they freeze well. I use Dove's Farm white bread flour and water in place of milk. Always use Dove's Farm yeast as you do not have to heat the liquid with it. No longer bother with rings, so my shape isn't perfect but it's so much quicker.

• Best ever 3-ingredient Yorkshire puddings

  • etcjm on September 28, 2023

    Regular in our house. You cannot tell they are GF. Same rules apply as per 'normal' yorkshires with the hot hot hot oil and oven and not opening the door while cooking. You must must must stir properly as you pour, because the cornflour settles so easily. Remember to season. I use muffin pans and the recipe with 6 eggs make 24 (just) yorkshires. Yes we are greedy. Yes they freeze well.

• Shortcrust pastry

  • etcjm on September 28, 2023

    Always works. have cooked this so many times. I use a food processor and add the wet until required. I chill for about 20-30 minutes until cool, but could still be rolled. Can freeze if needed (especially at Christmas). Better than when I made pastry prior to being GF.

• Ladyfingers (Savoiardi)

  • etcjm on September 28, 2023

    May not have been the prettiest examples on the planet, but after a couple of days so they got drier, they were great for a trifle. Worked and I was sadly super impressed with myself.

• Peshwari naan bread

  • Pamsy on March 21, 2025

    For a first attempt these were good. Just need to work on my shaping and rolling (thinner). The coconut and sultana filling was super.

• Crispy chilli beef

  • FJT on April 30, 2025

    I haven’t eaten crispy chilli beef for at least 20 years, so this was a real treat although I can’t see me making it often as I don’t much like deep frying. Tasted great.

• Beer-battered fish & chips

  • athena_0c465i on January 11, 2026

    Makes very crispy fish and chips! Would make again

• DYI doner kebab

  • athena_0c465i on January 19, 2026

    This was good! I forgot the egg, so it was a little dry, but still tasty— will have to try making it again the right way! Served with homemade pita bread

  Most people tackling GF bakes will be using a standard bag of supermarket GF flour and for this reason alone the accessibility of Becky’s approach is a huge positive.
