The cdrecord manpage says to do this:

cdda2wav -v255 -D2,0 -B -Owav

and then run

cdrecord -v dev=2,0 -dao -useinfo  *.wav

The cdda2wav pulls the tracks off and also makes info files that cdrecord can
use (for example, to put the correct gap between tracks).  I've also used
cdda2wav to write the info files, cdparanoia to rip the tracks (assuming it
would be more accurate than cdda2wav), and cdrecord to write the CD.

There is also a cdrdao that you can use to write an audio CD, but I haven't
used it.  cdda2wav can probably pull the whole CD into one file, too.
