Bake Smart

Bake Smart (by Alex Broadnax) is the creative cookbook for curious culinary creators who crave more than just picture-perfect results, but instead, they crave understanding. With over 35 stellar recipes, this book blends the precision of a science manual with the heart of a home kitchen. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a rising pastry enthusiast, you'll walk away with more than dessert. You'll gain baking intuition. Instead of offering only instructions, Bake Smart invites you to explore the "why" behind the whisk. You'll uncover what gluten development actually looks like, how to prevent cookies from spreading too much, and what to do when a buttercream breaks or a cheesecake cracks - without starting from scratch. Every recipe includes both metric and U.S. measurements, step-by-step guidance, explained cues, and science-backed explanations to turn curiosity into confidence. From simple muffins to advanced laminated doughs, each bake is designed not only to succeed but to teach. By the final page, you won't just follow instructions - you'll understand how and when to adapt them, troubleshoot like a pro, and enjoy your time in the kitchen with clarity and purpose. Clear, confident, and approachable, Bake Smart empowers home bakers to move beyond recipes into a deeper, more rewarding baking experience. This isn't just a baking book. It's a baking education.
