Grilled Peaches with Mascarpone
Grilled Peaches with Mascarpone are the perfect summer dessert! Grilling enhances their natural sweetness and gives them a smoky, juicy, and lusciously smooth texture. Grilled peaches are a deliciously healthy dessert on their own, but they are amazing when paired with the creamy decadence of vanilla honey mascarpone. Finished with some roasted hazelnuts and a drizzle of honey, you are sure to enjoy every sumptuous bite. It can easily be made vegan & dairy free!
Chocolate Raspberry Bites
If you want a guilt-free dessert that is vegan and kid friendly, these delightful Chocolate Raspberry Bites are the perfect choice. This 5 ingredient recipe combines dark chocolate, fresh raspberries, and chia seeds. A touch of agave adds some sweetness to balance the tartness from the raspberries. This no bake recipe is secretly healthy and so tasty. This easy dessert is a quick and nutritious way to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Dragon Fruit Nice Cream
With a unique twist on traditional nice cream recipes, this Dragon Fruit Nice Cream is full of antioxidants and incredible flavor. This healthy non-dairy dessert gets its beautifully vibrant color from frozen dragon fruit (pink pitaya). Bananas provide some natural sweetness, along with a few optional ingredients that kick the flavor profile up a notch! This healthy 5 ingredient dessert recipe is so easy and takes only 5 minutes to make. It’s also vegan, dairy-free, and virtually guilt-free!
Chocolate Pecan Brioche Bread Pudding
This Chocolate Pecan Brioche Bread Pudding is a luxurious dessert that combines a creamy custard mixture with buttery French brioche, rich dark chocolate, and pecans, resulting in a soufflé-like texture and amazing flavor that will send you straight to dessert heaven! Served freshly baked with French vanilla ice cream for a really decadent treat.
Nutty Indoor S'mores
When the weather starts to cool down and you start missing summer campfires, my Nutty Indoor S’mores are the perfect fix. This quick and easy dessert has a special twist from traditional s’mores. Pillowy marshmallows combine with my Homemade Nutella (recipe coming soon!) and roasted hazelnuts to give them that extra bit of crunch & flavor. This 4 ingredient recipe takes less than 10 minutes to make, and can easily be made gluten-free and vegan!
Triple Berry Crisp
Wild blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are tossed with vanilla and cinnamon, smothered with a delicious, crispy pecan streusel and oats topping, and then baked to perfection. When served warm with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, the result is a succulent bite of warm berries and sweet, crispy cookie-like topping. After just one bite, you’ll swear you’ve gone to fruit crisp heaven! This simple dessert comes together in minutes, and is great for entertaining.
