The Thrifty Baker presents 65 delicious, affordable and
impressive recipes, complete with gluten-free options, plus advice,
tips and hacks covering many areas of shopping, baking and cooking
in general. Filled with clever ideas and useful features, the book
is written with a realism and empathy that comes from the heart,
from a lived experience. It isn’t just a book of great recipes,
but an essential manual for anyone baking today. Since appearing on
The Great British Bake Off in 2023 and wowing the judges, Hermine
Dossou’s career has gone from strength to strength, but life
hasn’t always been easy. As a single mother to her son
Steven, she had to learn to budget and make her income stretch,
especially when he was young and she could only work part-time.
With a limited income, but determined that they should both eat
good, nutritious food, she learned how to shop, cook, bake and eat
on a tight budget. This included making savings on ingredients and
cooking equipment, devising clever, thrifty recipes, planning
weekly menus, and running her oven as efficiently as possible to
save on energy bills.  In the process Hermine has
developed a wide-ranging ethos for baking on a budget, a set of
values, habits and skills that have at their heart a belief that we
can all eat flavourful, nutritious food without spending a fortune
on ingredients and energy. And crucially also the knowledge that
making our own bakes – whether that’s bread, pies, quiches,
desserts, cakes or snacks – can save us considerable sums when
times are tough. Â Hermine still uses these skills to this
day and would now like to share with you everything she’s learned
about baking on a budget.Â
