5 healthy easter treats

Easter is one of my absolute favorite holidays. I still remember having to look for my candy filled easter basket every single year. It is a tradition in Austria to hide not just eggs, but all of the goodies for kids to find. My parents weren’t too clever with their hiding spots since most of the time I’d find it in our bathtub or washing machine 😛 Miss those days.

Healthy Easter Basket

Even though we are dealing with some major changes this year and have to stay at home to keep everyone safe, I’d like to bring you some of my favorite easter treats.

It doesn’t matter  if your’e celebrating or not, these tasty recipes will surely sweeten up your weekend, plus they are a lot healthier than the usual easter candy fare.

Whether you enjoy cooking or baking, if you are a chocolate fan or not, there’s a recipe for everyone in this healthier easter basket. So, let’s start with my number one: these tasty hazelnut chocolate truffle eggs!

1.) Hazelnut Chocolate Eggs
If you’re a fan of anything chocolate, do yourself a favor and try these homemade vegan hazelnut chocolate eggs. They are decadently rich, creamy, and will melt in your mouth. It’s the perfect treat to munch on for this year’s Easter celebrations.

4. Vegan Carrot Cake Eggs
These easter themed vegan carrot cake eggs are an absolute dream. They are super moist, full of carrot cake flavors and a lot healthier than the traditional version. For these light and fluffy eggs I used my Vegan Carrot Cake Cupcake recipe and an Easter egg silicone mold that I got from Amazon.

5. Linzer Bunnies
In my world, every holiday needs a proper linzer cookie. 😛 Therefore I added these cute little linzer bunnies into my easter basket. For the cookie batter I used my classic linzer cookie recipe plus some easter cookie cutters I found in the kitchen.

In case you were wondering, I filled the easter basket with some additional homemade vegan white chocolate bunnies, using this easter mold from Amazon, and these beautifully piped easter nest meringues. You can find the Meringue Base recipe here.

ENJOY!
