50+Healthy Desserts That Are Delicious And Nutritious | How to make healthy desserts and 50+ healthy dessert ideas | A Sweet Pea Chef

Believe it or not, most people don’t want to change their lifestyle and to embrace clean eating because they are afraid they won’t be able to enjoy their favorite foods anymore.

While some might say this is a small sacrifice to make in order to be healthy, I disagree. Saying goodbye to your favorite foods is not easy. And it’s definitely not a small compromise. I have to say giving up desserts is even harder.

No more holiday desserts? No more birthday cakes? No more sweet treats? That sounds terrible, am I right?

Fortunately, I know people don’t have to do that in order to eat healthy. All they have to do is to opt for real, whole ingredients, and to adjust their favorite recipes a little bit. Yes, this definitely applies to desserts, too.

If you want to learn how to make healthy desserts, stick around because I have all the tips you need plus some totes delicious dessert recipes I know you’ll love. You won’t even know they are healthy. Pinky promise.  You’ll find so many healthy alternatives – light desserts, low-fat desserts, low-calorie desserts, quick healthy desserts, and easy healthy desserts – all in one place. You won’t have to stress about dessert time ever again.

TOOLSET FOR EASY HEALTHY DESSERT RECIPES

To make your job easier, I’m gonna start this easy healthy desserts post with a list of tools that I use when I make something sweet for my family.

First – mixing bowls. Mixing bowls are kinda mandatory in any kitchen. You’ll need them for healthy desserts but you will need them for other types of foods as well. A loaf pan is another kitchen essential to have around. You’ll be using it for ice cream, breads, bars, and cheesecakes, in this particular case. Mixer – if you are ready for these healthy desserts recipes, make sure your mixer is also ready. And while we’re on the topic of kitchen gadgets that will help you to make healthy desserts, make sure you have a kitchen blender and a food processor around. A rimmed baking sheet will allow you to freeze fruits and to turn them into sorbet and to make baked goods. Speaking about baked goods, everybody loves cookies and you can totally make them healthy so hope you have a cookie sheet.  And a cooling rack for cooling them. If you love baking, a baking dish or baking pan shouldn’t miss from your bakeware essentials. A muffin pan shouldn’t miss either. Healthy muffins are a thing but so are for mini cheesecakes. Yum. Lastly, grab yourself a popsicle mold because we’re about to talk about numerous healthy popsicle recipes. And I’m sure you ’ll want to try them all. Cheesecake crust ingredients in the food processor including pitted dates, pecans, and sea salt.4 BONUS TIPS FOR MAKING HEALTHY DESSERTS EXTRA DELICIOUS

The good news of today is that numerous desserts can be made healthy. You might say that healthy desserts do not taste as good as the unhealthy ones. I beg to differ. I know for a fact that healthy desserts taste amazing. Just try my recipes. I dare you.

Also, consider these tips:

Make it with nuts. Unless you have a nut allergy, you can use nuts to make desserts taste better. For some healthier desserts, you can even replace the classic base with a nut-base. Use seasonal fruits. Seasonal fruits taste better and they make a difference in your desserts too so try to use them as often as possible in your dessert recipes. Use real sweeteners.  Most healthy desserts are not delicious because they are not sweet enough. And people with a sweet tooth are able to tell the difference. Totally understandable. To make healthy desserts sweet, use natural sweeteners like raw honey or maple syrup instead of refined sugar. Also, use ripe fruits. They add a naturally sweet flavor even to the healthiest desserts. Use high-quality ingredients. This is such an important thing to remember. If you want easy healthy desserts that taste finger-licking-good, don’t compromise on quality.

Friends! I’m so excited to share my new favorite cookie with you just in time for the holidays. They’re so easy to make, ready in 20 minutesrequire no baking and just 5 ingredients, and they’re naturally sweetened! Let’s (not) bake!

The base for these cookies starts with creamy, salted peanut butter sweetened with maple syrup.

For gluten-free flour I used almond flour for its light texture, somewhat “cakey” flavor, and ability to absorb moisture without over-drying (like coconut flour can).
