Over the months since I started this blog, I have created many healthy sweet snacks, baked and unbaked. I thought I would do a summary of them for those who prefer not to eat too much fat and sugar but don’t want to give up on sweet treats. Many are gluten-free and/or dairy-free and/or sugar-free. I have discovered I have more than will fit in one post so this is part one.
Cranberry, Chocolate and Date Truffles – gluten and sugar-free
Banana Strawberry Muffins – dairy, gluten and sugar-free
Banana, Chocolate, Cranberry & Coconut Muffins – dairy & sugar-free
Almond, Orange & Cashew Cupcakes – dairy and gluten-free
White Raspberry Chocolate Cookies – dairy-free
Orange, Chocolate & Coconut Cookies – gluten & dairy-free
Ginger, Coconut, Raisin & Oatmeal Cookies – gluten and dairy-free
Almond, coconut & Chocolate Chip Cookies – dairy & gluten-free
Caramel Granola Bars – dairy & gluten-free
Caramel, Chocolate Granola Cups – dairy, gluten & sugar-free
I loved all especially caramel chocolate granola bars they look super yummy 🙂
Yes, caramel and chocolate is a favourite combination but these days I use only a touch of them so as not to ruin the health factor of the rest.

These are literally making my mouth water! I really need to try some of these delicious treats!
They’re worth the effort to make. At least you know what’s in them unlike the snacks you buy in the supermarket.
Suzanne
Um, okay I love every single recipe but those granola cups are blowing my mind.
They were pretty good but not completely healthy with the toppings.
Suzanne
One of each, please!
LOL. Sure you can have one of each but unfortunately you’ve got to make them.
Suzanne
Lots of great suggestions for Christmas baking…just beautiful.
Thanks, Karen. Christmas is a time for lots of sugar-eating so this is the way to go to keep things under control.
Suzanne
What a pretty group of treats! I want some Banana, Chocolate, Cranberry and Coconut Muffins.
They were pretty delicious and fabulous straight out of the oven.
Suzanne
That sure is a lot of healthy baking and the thing is, none of it looks healthy! Beautiful images Suzanne xx
Thanks. A feast for the eyes is halfway there, then the taste takes over.
Suzanne
I love your pictures. I could have anyone of these sweet treets, but I really like the Banana Strawberry muffins.
Actually those are the ones I would choose too. They were an experiment to make a sugar, gluten and dairy free muffin and they were delicious.
Suzanne
Great looking dishes! And you’re right that it’s all pretty healthy (even though an awful lot of it looks over-the-top indulgent!) Great pictures. Thanks so much.
Thanks. You can’t judge a book by its cover. LOL.
