What kid (or person for that matter) doesn’t love a soft, sweet cinnamon roll fresh from the oven? But today I have something even better than typical cinnamon rolls for your kids to enjoy: Healthier cinnamon rolls that are refined sugar free and dairy free! This cinnamon rolls recipe is super soft and sweet, but it is so much easier on a parent’s conscience.
Oh my goodness, these animal crackers! You would not even know that these are healthier animal crackers. They are so crisp and delicious, and – best of all – they contain zero processed sugar. Sweetened with maple syrup, these healthier animal crackers are so easy to make with just 4 ingredients (3 if you use salted butter). And it’s a good thing too, since your kids will be asking you to make them over and over 😁
If your kids are crazy for donuts, this is exactly the recipe you need. Because according to my kids, these homemade donuts are as good as donuts from the donut shop :O And to be perfectly honest, I can hardly believe it. My 7-year-old literally had to convince me that she truly loves these donuts. Not because I don’t think they are delicious but because my 7-year-old can be very hard to please in the treat department.
So you want to make some sweet homemade bagels but you don’t want to use refined sugar? I totally feel you. While some people may not see the big deal in 7 grams of added sugar for breakfast in the morning, consider that those 7 grams are almost two-thirds of the AAP recommended daily limit of added sugar for children.
There is nothing more refreshing – or festive – than mint chocolate chip ice cream. But to kids, it’s just a yummy treat their taste buds crave without regard to the sugar content. Which is one of the reasons why this no churn mint chocolate chip ice cream is so wonderful 🙂 Because not only is this a super easy mint chip ice cream recipe that does not require you to own an ice cream maker.
You know, kids are some of the most wasteful creatures when it comes to food. It’s pretty rare that my kids finish an entire muffin in one sitting. That’s why these mini chocolate chip muffins are just right for mini mouths. Mini muffins are just the right size breakfast or snack for kids of all different ages. For toddlers, one is just right.
I’m not sure what it is about strawberries, but it seems to be the one fruit kids can’t get enough of. Whether it is fresh strawberries, strawberry popsicles or homemade strawberry cupcakes like these … strawberry anything is hard to keep on hand for more than a day at our house. If you can relate to having a strawberry-loving child, this healthy cupcakes recipe is just what you need.
The inspiration behind this strawberry cake pops recipe was two-fold. First, I wanted to create something really fun for kids (and what could be more fun than cake on a stick?) that would not cause sugar-rush anxiety for parents. And secondly, I am always racking my brain to come up with naturally sweetened treats my kids will actually like that don’t contain chocolate.
You might not believe this … but these frozen yogurt berry bites for toddlers are actually magnets.
It’s true! These little frozen bites of protein are taste bud magnets. Because once toddlers get a taste, there’s no keeping them from consuming the entire batch in one sitting. Trust me, I have personal experience with my own toddler.
Cheesecake in a ball. I’m not sure who thought of it, but it’s a genius way to make and serve these chocolate cheesecake balls to kids. Sometimes the thought of making a cheesecake is a little too much. I mean, we adults are busy. If we want to make a snack or treat for our kids that needs to be baked, it requires schedule-rearranging and time management skills.
A healthy waffle recipe for kids that tastes great and is super easy to make? Now that sounds like the kind of breakfast plan every parent needs on a Saturday morning. If your kids are anything like mine, you probably spend most Saturday mornings making something a little bit extra special for them to enjoy on their day off from school.
There are two great things about these moist vanilla cupcakes:
1. They are free from refined sugar.
2. Kids love their taste and texture.
There is nothing better than a sweet treat for your child that you can feel good about. With all of the processed sugar and additives in store-bought cake mixes, homemade cake is always a healthier choice.
