Healthy and Fruity Desserts

Posted in Recipes by sophie

Despite the fact that I adore fruit, I just can’t seem to squeeze the daily recommended amount into my diet. But thanks to the many healthy and fruity recipes posted on Key Ingredient, that’s about to change. Though most dessert recipes include large amounts of flour and butter as their base, it is possible to create a tasty, after-dinner treat that uses other ingredients. jakkelley shares a recipe for Citrus Salad with Ginger Yogurt that sounds like it could easily silence even the loudest sweet tooth. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I feel like my sweet tooth has a mouth of its own, always making requests for desserts like lizzie2000’s Baked Apples with Cranberries, Raisins, and Apricots. I wouldn’t mind giving in to this dessert, it’s loaded with nutrients from fruits that are naturally sweet and savory. But on a hot Summer day, or a sweltering Texas Spring day like today, I could definitely use something like StephanieKim’s Sherbet Fruit Pops. These colorful and fresh popsicles are easy to make; they’d make a great dessert for those days when you can fry an egg on your driveway.
