A Healthier Holiday Treat Roundup!
Hi! This month has flown by and Christmas is this week (which is truly unbelievable). I’m late as usual, but popping in to share a quick list of my favourite treats to bake for the holidays. This year will undoubtedly be quieter than usual, but I’ll still be baking up a storm at home for my sweetheart and I. I’ll be making a few from this list plus my annual Christmas morning tradition - homemade cinnamon buns! Hope you all have a safe and healthy holiday. Sending lots of love! xo
Magic Cookie Bars (Vegan + Gluten-Free)
One of my favourite holiday treats growing up, and this version is made completely dairy-free with a homemade coconut milk caramel. You can also easily make these in a square or round pan!
Coconut-Date Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan + Gluten-Free)
Classic, deliciously chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies made with healthier ingredients and the addition of juicy date chunks.
Vegan Salted Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
These little babies are so easy to make, perfectly salty and would be delightful with a little Hershey kiss pressed into each one!
Vegan + Paleo Chocolate Caramel Twix Bars
Probably my favourite dessert EVER! These “Twix” copycat bars are made with an almond flour shortbread crust, a luscious maple-cashew butter caramel and a homemade salted chocolate topping.
The Best Tahini Chocolate Chunk Cookies (Vegan + Grain-Free)
Truly one of the best cookies I’ve made to date and probably my new favourite. These taste like a classic rich and chewy chocolate chip cookie, but with a touch of nutty tahini for a complex flavour.
Peanut Butter Coconut No Bake Cookies
Cute lil cookies that require no oven and are full of good-for-you, lower sugar ingredients but taste very rich. They can even look like seasonally-appropriate snowballs if you sprinkle them with extra coconut on top ;)
The Best Gluten-Free Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake
Perfect for Christmas morning, this sweet, moist and cinnamon-y coffee cake is full of healthy ingredients and topped with an addictive almond crumble.
Vegan + Grain-Free Salted Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies
These cookies are loaded with chocolate chunks and are so rich and deluxe. They taste like healthy brownie cookies!
Vegan Everything Cookies
Packed with oats, shredded coconut, sliced almonds, dried cranberries and chocolate chunks, these somewhere in between a morning treat and a dessert - but they are highly appropriate to eat for breakfast (as I often do).
Healthy Peanut Butter Cup Bars (Vegan + Gluten-Free)
These peanut butter cup bars have an oatmeal-coconut crust and the thickest, dreamiest peanut butter layer in the middle. Flaky salt on top is a must!
