]]> While many of us do our best to maintain a healthy diet, life without some sweet desserts just isn’t the same. Fortunately, with the right planning, you won’t have to give up on your favorite delicious treats. Here are some healthy dessert recipes for health-conscious eaters with a sweet tooth.

Strawberry Frozen Yogurt

While bursting with flavor, this frozen dessert is actually quite simple to make. All you need is to chop up 140g of strawberries and place them in a large bowl with condensed milk and 500g of Greek yogurt. Freeze it overnight and remember to remove it from the freezer around 15 minutes before serving.

Apple Crunch

Peel and chop up some apples and place them in a pan with water. Heat the pan on the stove and once the water is boiling, pour 340g of oats, two teaspoons of vanilla extract, and two tablespoons of cinnamon. Finally, add soya yogurt to the mix.

Chocolate Chia Pudding

This chocolate pudding takes just five minutes to make. Put chia seeds, almond milk, cacao powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract into a bowl and whisk thoroughly. Add frozen berries to top it all off and freeze the dessert overnight.

]]> Indulging in desserts doesn’t have to be synonymous with compromising your health goals. In fact, with a little creativity and thoughtful ingredient choices, you can enjoy delicious and nutritious sweet treats that nourish your body and satisfy your cravings. Indeed, there are plenty of ways to indulge guilt-free in desserts, and here are three options you can try.

Fruit Parfait

Layered with goodness, a fruit parfait is a refreshing and healthy dessert option. Start with a base of Greek yogurt, which is high in protein and probiotics. Add a layer of mixed berries or diced tropical fruits for natural sweetness and a burst of vitamins.

Chia Pudding

Chia seeds are a nutritional powerhouse, packed with fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants. To make a chia pudding, mix chia seeds with your choice of milk (almond, coconut, or soy) and let it sit in the fridge overnight to thicken.

Baked Apple Crisp

For a warm and comforting dessert, try baked apple crisp. Slice apples and toss them with a touch of lemon juice, cinnamon, and a small amount of natural sweetener. Place them in a baking dish and top with a mixture of oats and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Bake until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.

]]> Most people think that healthy desserts are impossible to find, but Chocolate Covered Katie is here to prove them wrong. Instagram’s queen of healthy desserts is putting a spin on our favorite sweet treats by using more nourishing ingredients in the baking process.

Katie describes herself as “a girl who eats chocolate every day and sometimes even has cake for breakfast.”

Judging by the posts on her blog, she definitely isn’t lying, but there’s something that sets her tasty desserts apart.

Chocolate Covered Katie transformed her blog into Instagram’s no. 1 source of healthy recipes, and many of them also happen to be vegan. She focuses on making healthier versions of our favorite foods, and switching to plant-based ingredients often proved to be the easiest way to do that.

Her recipes often feature several ingredient suggestions, because she’s trying to make them accessible to all of her readers. It’s important for Katie to come up with recipes that fit everyone’s dietary needs, and that’s why her blog features many recipes that are low in calories, fat, or sugar. She also enjoys testing different healthy and gluten-free options, by switching up her flours and sweeteners.
