10 cookbooks to give as the perfect Mother’s Day gift

2. Perfectly Golden by Angela Garbacz

This cookbook, in particular, is based on Angela’s Goldenrod Pastries shops in Lincoln, NE, which is filled with, as the person from Food & Wine Magazine, who suggested it, said:

"are filled with fluffernutter buns, confetti cookies, and frosted fudgy brownies that all happen to be gluten- and dairy-free"

Her cookbook offers the same sort of recipes, or versions of the same ones she already sells, but also allows variations of even more restrictions, such as flour, milk, eggs, nuts and seeds, and so on, that one may or may not have. This book also gives you alternatives, even if allergies aren’t a thing in your house, that way it’s convenient to make, no matter what you have stocked in your pantry at the time of you wishing to pull out this book and make a recipe from it!

So, whether you have allergies to these restrictions or not, it seems that this cookbook will work for you regardless. The person who suggested this is actually gifting a physical copy of this for her own Mother this year as a great and most perfect of Mother’s Day gifts!

This sounds like a great cookbook and something Mom (and all who eat her treats) will love alike!
