James Morton was runner-up on Great British Bake Off 2012 and loved for his uniquely creative approach to baking. He published his first book, Brilliant Bread, in 2013 which won the Guild of Food Writer's Award for Best Cookery Book the following year. Now a qualified medical doctor, James combines imagination and chemistry, applying an evidence-based approach to baking to dispell unnecessary baking myths, concoct foolproof recipes, develop original techniques and help as many people as possible become better and confident bakers. His books are the new classics for the home kitchen and essential to every baker's collection.
