A New Way to Bake reinvents and reimagines cakes, bakes and desserts, using plant-based ingredients that are available globally.
Chef Philip Khoury has delved deep into patisserie in an attempt to make desserts that are ‘cleaner’, and that present finer flavours and textures. In A New Way to Bake, Philip transforms the traditional building blocks of baking by using plant-based, natural ingredients or ingredients that have been in use for over 100 years.
A New Way to Bake uncovers a brief history of baking before setting out the Plantry, where the main ingredients and their functionalities are explained. Full of delicious bakes, from Apple Pie to Banana Bread, to Lamingtons and Tiramisù, there are sweet treats for any occasion.
Recipes are broken down into digestible steps, with explanations as to why steps are important, and tips along the way too. Plus, there are even QR codes to help navigate through the recipes.
Written in an informative yet approachable style, A New Way to Bake is a comprehensive guide that arms readers with a new outlook and tools to bake a better future.

A game changer. A beautifully designed book that opens a wide door for vegans, those who are lactose intolerant - and curious cooks who just love excellent bakes and desserts. * Mark Diacono, Delicious Magazine *
Philip Khoury's book is such a revelation. How he injects such richness and crunch into his plant-based pastry and lightness into his eggless sponges is little short of a miracle. I've done side by side comparisons of his dairy and non-dairy tiramisu and brownies and, honestly, it's hard to tell the difference. I'm not saying this is the future of baking, but if it is, we've got nothing to worry about. * The Times *
