Coconut Cake With The Cake Mix Doctor Anne Byrn
Description
Today’s guest is Anne Byrn, a trusted voice in American and Southern baking. Best known for her bestselling “Cake Mix Doctor” cookbook series, Anne’s career spans from her early days working at the school newspaper to studying at La Varenne Culinary School in Paris to becoming an accomplished journalist and bestselling author. Her latest book, “Baking in the American South,” weaves together 200 recipes with the cultural history that shaped them.
Anne joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about her path as a writer and baker, the time Julia Child cooked for her (hint: it was a roast chicken), and the evolution of the cake she’s been perfecting for more than three decades—coconut cake.
