Vegan a la Mode Cookbook Giveaway

Averie over at Averie Cooks is giving away Hannah Kaminsky of Bittersweet’s latest book, Vegan a la Mode: More Than 100 Frozen Treats for Every Day of the Year. This is a cookbook that any dessert lover will enjoy and all the recipes are vegan. With an emphasis on fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs, Hannah insists that fresh, local produce at the peak of ripeness offers incomparable flavors that cannot be replicated with any amount of sugar, salt, or any baking extracts. As a result, her creative recipes will appeal to health-conscious bakers (all recipes are low in cholesterol and many feature natural sweeteners and whole grains), though even the sweetest sweet teeth among us will be more than satisfied by these tantalizing treats.
