Healthy dessert recipes
Fancy dessert but don’t want to undo all of your hard work after signing up to the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge? The good news is, you can have your cake and eat it!
We all know that too much sugar is bad for you. But cutting out sugar doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your desserts!
By cooking with fruit, you can add in extra nutrients that you wouldn’t get with regular sugar but the fructose means you can still get that sweet flavour. You can also use rice malt syrup, honey, coconut syrup as well as other sugar alternatives. But with everything, moderation is key.
Here are 15 healthy dessert recipes from our 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge recipe hub for you to try to get your sweet fix….
Healthy dessert recipes – 5 sweet snacks for after dinner
Healthy chocolate Weet-Bix slice
Peanut bubble crunch
With rice bubbles, peanut butter and chocolate, you can’t go wrong! The kids will also absolutely adore crunching this scrumptious slice in their school lunches, or as an afternoon tea treat.
Chocolate chip muffins
We love a recipe makeover and this Choc Chip Muffins Recipe is a so sample directly from the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge – which is made for busy mums.
With dark chocolate bits, these healthy muffins are a great snack and perfect for the whole family.
Banana, raspberry and chocolate chip muffins
For a healthy snack under 100 calories, these Banana, Raspberry And Chocolate Chip Muffins are perfect.
There’s no need for a muffin to contain vast amounts of sugar like the ones you find in cafes or at the supermarket – check the label as often there is as much sugar as there is flour.
These muffins are sweetened with fruit and a small amount of maple syrup, making them a much healthier choice.

These Healthy Choc Chip Mini Cheesecakes are vegan friendly and taste as good as they look.

A healthy trifle? Yes, such a thing does exist! Trifles are usually packed with lashings of cream and custard (not to mention the sponge cake and brandy) and can clock in at over 400 calories per serve.
Our Easy Mango and Passionfruit Trifle bucks the trend and at just 275 calories per serve, can be enjoyed as part of the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.
This Easy Mango and Passionfruit Trifle uses natural Greek yoghurt, homemade pancakes and plenty of fresh, seasonal fruit for a fresh take on this classic.
