Mr Middleton published his first cookbook Delicious Gluten-Free Baking last year and will sign copies at the festival.
Organiser Crispin Slee said: “We have a fantastic line-up on our chef demo stage. As well as Howard, we have some fabulous local cooks, Michelin Star chef Phil Fanning and Jen Charlton, who was a Masterchef semi-finalist this year.
“Howard’s sessions are great. They are a must for any Bake Off fan. He’s very entertaining and offers a captivating glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes.”
