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 fiance would absolutely fall in love with this! Please enter me in this amazing contest!!!
Your books have changed the way I make bread. Keep up the great work.
A cloche would be awesome. I have the Emile rectangle stone and I love it. I haven’t tried making a gluten free loaf yet.
Great books, amazing that such great bread is easily within reach.
I am by no means a cook but everyone that has tried my bread thinks they’re amazing. Thanks so much for teaching me how to bake love! ❤️
I have so many wonderful memories of yeast bread baking with my mom and miss fresh wonderful loaves since having to go gluten free. I’ll be buying the book tomorrow, can’t wait to smell them baking in my oven. I’m sure the cloche is totally awesome too, as I love my Emile Henry Dutch oven dearly, Thank you for all that you do, but especially for bringing a bit of treasured normalcy and heavenly aroma back to my kitchen.
We discovered this series a few months ago, and have been enjoying amazing, wonderful, fantastic bread at home. Thank you for letting us know.
Thanks for taking a whole YEAR to bring us amazing GF breads!!
Three cheers for a cloche crust! In my family, we are all about the crust, and we would love to enjoy home-baked cloche-crusted breads. Thank you for organizing this fabulous giveaway!
I love bread & this would be so helpful in keeping us gluten-free – beautiful “bell”!
I would love to bake your recipes in my oven with that cloche! Thanks!
I would love to try this great kitchen tool!
This new book will be a fabulous resource when I’m cooking for my GF friends!
I would love to experiment with baking bread in a cloche! I’ve followed your blog since I received your first book as a birthday gift, which you autographed for me at a pizza demo I attended a few years ago. Since then, your crockpot breadbaking techniques have won me over and I can’t wait to see what you guys do next!
I have four bread machines that have just become obsolete after finding this site last week. I cannot believe how easy this bread is to make,and how good it taste. I made the brioche dough that was posted on the site,then made a loaf bread that night and ordered the New Artisan book the same night. Made sticky buns from the book two days later with the brioche dough.Just AWESOME! Now I just took out a picture perfect free form boule a few minutes ago. Again just awesome crispy crust. As much as I am on the net I cannot believe I have not seen or heard of this technique for bread making.It truly is a revolution and I have joined whole hardily.
My wife and I would love this!
Usually, people bake bread in tradition way and find it was a hard work especially on the busy day. Your No knead method change many people’s mind to bake bread at home and the outcomes are excellent. Also, the no knead method is very benefit for the senior bakers.
This looks delicious!
So happy for you all and you continued bread baking success! Fingers crossed for the newest book and cloche :).
I just discovered your website and your books and I am intrigued! And as a HUGE fan of Emile Henry products, I would be thrilled to win a gorgeous baking cloche. Thank you for entering me!
Gluten-free bread recipes……..holy hell, <3
I’ve been on the ABin5 train for the past year as we’ve been RVing through the U.S. I always have bread dough and pizza dough ready in the fridge. Now I don’t need to worry about the next place to buy good bread or what to make for dinner (pizza!). It’s been a delicious convenience. Love the book and have made it mine w/lots of notes.
Love to be able to have fresh bread at hand so conveniently.
I have a gluten intolerance and dislike the taste of most of the gf bread in the stores. I also miss the amazing aroma of bread Bali g in my home. I have anxiously been waiting for your gf book to release and got my copy yesterday. I read the entire book last night and will be shopping for ingredients today. I’m excited to not only eat bread again, but to bake it myself in many different varieties and to share if with friends. Thank you.
Just started using your cookbook with our newly built outdoor oven; makes bread bake weekends a breeze, and so delicious.
My wife gave me your artisan bread book for my birthday – we have LOVED baking your bread in our wood-fired backyard oven, and many friends & family have too! Thank you!!
I love baking and baking new things. This cookbook is perfect for me to bake breads and goodies for my gluten intolerant friends.
I have missed making bread. This book looks incredible!
Please enter me in this giveaway. I’m very excited to dive into this book and try some of the gluten free recipes!
This is a very generous offer. The book looks really wonderful
Always telling people about your books…our family LOVES each and every recipe I have baked…bread, bread, and more bread! We are happy and I would love to win an Emile Henry Bread Cloche! Your new book is on my Christmas List for both receiving and giving!
I just found this site. I am loving it already. I LOVE bread and with my son’s food allergies (and now my husband’s need to be gluten free) it can be hard to find tasty bread.
I am an absolute fan of your website, basically because I love baking and there are ALWAYS awesome recipes 🙂
I absolutely love your books and have been dying to try using a cloche!
I baked bread every week prior to my Celiac diagnosis two years ago. I’ll be getting this book ASAP and would love to have the cloche!
I just found your book and ordered it from Amazon. Can’t wait to try it as the descriptions and pictures are amazing and I can almost smell the bread.
I would absolutely love to win the Emile Henry bread cloche! OH the amazing things that could be created!
As someone who has eaten the very best bread (and wine) in France, I must say that this is a winner. We make Champagne and go to Reims to the local Artisan bakers and eat their bread with local cheese and wines. Can’t get more rustic than that! Again this is a world class recipe.
I have recently gained an appreciation of Artisinal breads after a trip to learn more about baking! Now I am all about trying new things and the book would give me opportunities to bake for my gluten free friend!
I ordered mine today. Can’t wait for it to get here. I soooo miss baking really great bread!
Love your books and bread!
Looks awesome!
I used one a cloche in a baking class once, and it produced such delicious bread!
Such a beautiful piece. I enjoy baking bread & would treasure this.
I still love the original recipe and olive oil pizza dough! Amazing every time!
I can’t wait to try the gluten free versions of your wonderful bread recipes!
Your books and articles are such works of art, I love reading them, baking the recipes and then eating the results.
My girlfriend was just put on a gluten free diet and we’re looking for break options. This new book and the cloche would be a wonderful solution.
Looking forward to picking up the book this weekend at Costco. We have your original wheat book, and adore the recipes, have high hopes for these recipes as well.
I love your books! I am happy to know that there’s another one coming! The cloche is a wonderful bonus!
I just received my gluten free cookbook and have been pouring over it. My sister is visiting this weekend and we will bake together. Excited!
