Quoted in Article on Vegan Baking for the Associated Press

A really positive article about vegan baking came over the wires yesterday (10/130/07), and I - among other vegan bakers - am quoted in it:

"People associate baking with eggs, butter and cow's milk, but it's more accurate to say baked goods need fat, moisture and leavening," says Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, author of "The Joy of Vegan Baking."

"And those are available in plant form," she says.

In this part of the story, they included the following quote:

Ground flax seeds: Used in place of eggs, these help bind whole-grain muffins, cookies and pancakes. Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, author of "The Joy of Vegan Baking," suggests buying whole flax seeds and grinding them as needed in a coffee mill.

and my Lemon Cheesecake is featured (not the prettiest photo, but it's all good). :) Fun to see the book getting some press! Enjoy.
