Summer time heat calls for light salads, bbqs, cold drinks + lighter desserts. Everything needs to be refreshing, cooling and not too heavy. For me, that means going with healthier, paleo desserts to help satisfy my sweet tooth without weighing me down. I want desserts that are fruity, chocolate-y or cold, and I’ve rounded up a list of 7 Healthy Paleo Desserts To Make This Summer!
-
Ginger Rhubarb + Vanilla Cream Bars (paleo + vegan)
Coconut flour shortbread topped with vanilla cashew cream filling and a ginger rhubarb compote. It’s light, refreshing and really tasty. I think it’s best made the day before to let the base soften and absorb flavour!
Tools You Might Need:
2. Sweet Cherry Galette
I love cherry season. This grain-free galette is oozing with sweet cherry goodness and crisp, golden crust.
3. Paleo Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Can’t go wrong with this classic. Want to take it up a notch? Make an ice cream cookie sandwich with vegan ice cream!
