Sick of Low Carb Baking Fails?
Learn to Fake Your Favorites Like Nobody’s Business 🍞✨

Grain-Free Baking, Demystified

🍩 Bread. Donuts. Pizza. Muffins. Cupcakes. 🧁

All the stuff you thought you’d just have to live without—until about twelve minutes into going low carb. 😩 So you tumble into the shady underworld of low carb baking on Pinterest…eek!

If you’ve ever bitten into a “keto muffin” that tasted like damp sponge—or tried a “bread” that collapsed into existential despair—you already know: low carb baking is weird.

One wrong move, and you’re chewing something that tastes like (very expensive) regret. Even Chef DJ Foodie faceplanted through his share of almond flour disasters—and he does this for a living.

That’s exactly why he wrote THE FAKERY: Easy Guide to Grain-Free Quick Breads—a funny, confidence-boosting guide that breaks it all down in plain English. Visual flour guides. Foolproof ratios. Over 60 field-tested recipes that work—launchpads for your own creations that will work too. Every time.

This isn’t about being a perfect baker. It’s about knowing what to expect, how to adapt, and how to make food that loves you back. Because nobody should have to give up their bread and their dignity.

Take a peek inside…

Best Baking Book

Best baking book I have ever owned, grain or no grain. The picture dictionary, with the different flours and texture you can SEE with the in-depth explanation of everything is the greatest help I have ever had with understanding ingredients, flavor and texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not really. A couple recipes are (intentionally) more involved, with step-by-step instructions to teach specific cooking techniques. But most of what you get are normal, everyday recipes using readily-available ingredients. It’s the kind of stuff you’d be making for dinner, with a few fancier, “company’s coming” options. It’s a very practical cookbook, with instructions clear enough for any level of cooking expertise.

🥑 DJ’s books are Keto-friendly, although not Keto-specific (with specific ratios of macros). DJ’s recommended target in CARBAGE is 30 net carbs a day, so the vast majority of recipes are under 10 net carbs a serving. FAKERY is similar and most of the recipes do use common keto macro percentages. Bonus points: Nutritionals are broken down–not just by recipe, but by ingredient–so it’s extremely convenient for trackers.

🦴 More or less. DJ’s orientation is “Low Primal,” so natural food is always the star. Some recipes include dairy. Honey is not recommended as a sweetener because of its impact on blood glucose, but information on using honey as a sweetener is still included in CARBAGE. So you’re free to make the recipes however works best for you.

🌾 Yes! There are no wheat products in the ingredients. But if you need to be completely gluten-free, please be sure to check the brands you use because as you already know, gluten mysteriously shows up in lots of places we wouldn’t expect to see it. Sneaky gluten!

📦 Not exactly. You can get the PDF version. Unfortunately, these books cost a small fortune to ship abroad. Some of our paper-book-loving friends have sent them to friends or a mailing service for forwarding, but we understand that’s a lot of fuss. We would love to offer them worldwide…someday. But for now, everyone can get the PDF versions. 

Look for an email within a few minutes of ordering.  The “Access Your Purchases” button will take you back to your order confirmation page, with links at the bottom. Sometimes, spam filters do eat it, though. If you are having any kind of trouble whatsoever, no worries. Just give a holler and we’ll get it sorted.

🤔 No problem. Questions, feedback, or other whatnot? Give a holler!
