When I was five years old, I created my very first homemade Easter dessert:
A yellow marshmallow Peep, topped with a Hershey’s bar, smushed between two graham crackers, and microwaved until the filling stuck to the plate and created a sticky mess. Luckily for you all, I’ve chosen not to include that recipe in today’s showcase of healthy Easter desserts:

Is it bad that I sort of want that recipe for the Peep sammie?
Fine fine fine.
Pretend I never said it.
I guess I’ll just have to settle for the copycat Reeses eggs – the image for which has been haunting my dreams for – oh, I don’t know – 4 solid months now?
You’re a genius.

I’ve been planning those peanut butter eggs for Easter for months, along with another healthy recipe I found somewhere that we call Almonds of Joy! I’m so excited. I’ve directed some of my friends and family to your blog, and my uncle wants to make your eggs, too!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Michelle says
This all looks wonderful!

Great recipes for the Easter season! We’re having a party this weekend, so I’ll definitely need to bring something delicious! Now to choose.
Those little chocolate bunnies are adorable, but I’m a sucker for peanut butter eggs.

Katie – For the Coconut Snack Cake you said you can sub a ripe banana for 1 c. of crushed pineapple. Does that give the cake any banana taste? Is the pineapple to help take the place of oil, or is it more for flavor?
Also, should the amount of banana be about equal to the amount of pineapple? I ask that because I have some really small bananas and I don’t know if that is enough. Thank you Katie for all you do! You’re awesome, and I love your recipes!
Tanja @ Playful and Hungry says
Some really nice ideas! =)
Paige says
Don’t forget the Carrot Cake in a bowl!! It’s my favorite ☺
Debbie says
I may make the reeses eggs with homemade dark chocolate peanut butter. I have a lot of it in my fridge and a huge chocolate craving.
Colleen Grossner says
Katie,
Your collection is awesome! All I have are these Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Eggs: http://fresh-you.blogspot.com/2012/04/chocolate-peanut-butter-fudge-eggs.html
Hope you are having a happy Easter!!
Colleen 🙂
Nicole @ Fruit 'N' Fitness says
So many healthy Easter recipes in one spot 🙂
Anna @ Your Healthy Place says
I’m still so impressed by your imitation Creme Eggs! I have to admit we have been having far too many of the real thing around here (I’m on holiday visiting family in the UK and hollow Easter eggs made by Cadbury’s are the go-to Easter gift around here!).
Happy Easter!
Annie says
All of these recipes look so yummy! I don’t know how you do it. I made my boyfriend the “healthy” Reeses eggs and he flipped out! Those are his all time favorite but he is majoring in Nutrition so he was happy to see he could enjoy himself while still sticking to his healthy lifestyle. Thanks Katie! 🙂
Maxine says
Discovered this blog right before Easter,…..have been hooked ever since, never mind studying for uni haha.
Already tried out several recipes and they turned out so gorgeously that I think I may be ready to take the step from vegetarian to vegan (finding vegan stores in NZ is tough going)! Any words of advice?
warryn says
Hey Katie! I love love love your recipes! I was wondering if you had one for a strawberry lemonade cake? My husbands birthday is coming up, and he’s on a diet, and I don’t want to deny him his cake.
Ugo Colombo says
Desserts seem to be very popular during Easter so eating healthy may be difficult. Thank you for sharing these recipes.
Jorge Castro says
Delicias al paladar, i want to eat chcolate!!!
Susan says
Good recipes, definitely worth trying, but not sure you can use the word ‘healthy’ when you’re using white flour and sugar (even the substitutes) xylitol etc, it’s still sugar and white flour is definitely not on the healthly list.
Chocolate Covered Katie says
Hi Susan,
Please see my Recipe FAQ page (at the top of the blog, under the header). I talk about that :).
