Healthy Easter Recipe Favourites
I cannot believe Easter weekend is already upon us when it feels like New Years was just yesterday. This year seems to be flying past at a rapid rate! Today I present you with a collection of recipes I featured on the Kenkō website throughout last year to help keep your Easter weekend as delicious as possible! It can be hard seeing everyone biting into fluffy hot cross buns and delicious Easter chocolate treats when you're coeliac, living with intolerances and allergies or trying to eat healthy. For me, now being coeliac and lactose intolerant, I know that it is particularly hard as I can't even sneak a gluten treat as I will just get sick! Here below are some of my favourite chocolate recipes I know I will be creating this weekend to help keep me from FOMO (fear of missing out). From Hot Cross Buns, Raw Ganache Cakes, Ice Creams to Bliss Balls I hope you find a little something among this list to make this weekend special!
I wish everyone has a safe holiday weekend filled with family, friends and chocolate! Make sure you take a moment for yourself to rest, relax and enjoy yourself! xx
The first recipe, which is one of my absolute favourites to make all throughout the year is my Rosemary & Chocolate Hot Cross Buns. These are gluten free, refined sugar free and are totally beautiful. Cut them in half, pop them in the grill and put on a smear of coconut oil and you have yourself one insanely delicious treat!

A delicious Raw Chocolate Ganache Cake is something that is hard to go past - especially if you have guests coming over this weekend! The perfect chocolate indulgence which tastes just as good as it looks...

These Double Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches are the best chocolate treat to create as a delicious Easter dessert. Not only are they fuss free to make but they are also an absolute winner to serve up! Keep any leftovers in the freezer as a little go-to treat when you're craving that little bit of chocolate!

If you're more of a Chocolate Coated Popsicle fan than a Ice Cream Sandwich Fan then this is the recipe for you. To make these a double chocolate treat simply add in some extra cacao into the ice cream mix and you have yourself a delicious double chocolate ice cream!

Not only are these bliss balls super quick to whip up, but they are also very easy to mould into any shape you please. If you want something to replace the Easter eggs try whipping up a batch of these. Simply use an easter egg mould to shape them or even shape them by hand into little egg-like shapes. For an extra chocolate hit try melting some of your favourite raw chocolate and dipping these balls in. Simply then pop them into the freezer and wah-lah within minutes you will have set little very healthy easter eggs!

The next recipe I share with you is the recipe for my Sweet Potato Rosti Garden Sliders which are tiny little mushroom burger gems with a delicious sweet potato rosti. You can play around with what you fill these with, you can put in some micro greens, herbs and let's face it any salad vegetables or sauce you're feeling like. For me I love these with the red onion relish and a little bit of greenery! This is a little savoury treat as let's face it after all the chocolate recipes above, your body will be feeling like something savoury to balance that out!
