Single Serve Breakfast Berry crumble

Single Serve Breakfast Berry Crumble

Crumbles are one of my favourite desserts. Hot, sweet and deeply satisfying, theres just something about that oaty topping against juicy seasonal fruit. It’s a dessert I grew up with and ate at least once a week, although admittedly they were full of white sugar, butter and a whole heap of custard to boot. In typical fashion I had to recreate it, and what’s better than dessert for breakfast? Not a lot. One healthy ‘Bressert’ coming your way…

Amp up your breakfast with antioxidants from these dark berries and you’ll benefit from clearer skin, improved digestion and a stronger immune system. #winning.

Honey, Lemon & Macadamia Cheesecake

Honey and Lemon serve a much better purpose than just a cold remedy, dontcha know?

Perfect for a special occasion, or just a weekday – with ingredients to healthy, who needs an excuse?!

Chocolate & Cherry Mousse Pots

Chocolate & Cherry Parfait

You would be forgiven for thinking this velvety smooth chocolate cream would wreak havoc with your clean eating goals. However, this guilt free alternative is actually full of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory mono-saturated fats. It’s versatile too: try it spread on your favourite toast, use as a clean cake frosting or even fruit dip. Teamed with a layer of simple cherry Chia Jam, this will become a new favourite for entertaining. Impressive, simple and downright delicious.

Chocolate Orange Cheesecake

This delectable cheesecake actually contains no cheese, or dairy for that matter. Maybe I should have just called it a pie, but given that it has a rich creamy texture and a biscuit base, I’m sticking with it.

The secret ingredient here is silken tofu, which is extremely high in protein. Mix that with some raw cacao for anti-oxidants, orange for Vitamin C, pecans for healthy fats and flax for fibre, and you basically have to eat it for its health-giving properties. It’s like medicine. Well… that was my excuse when I tucked into two slices of the stuff. Must learn to exercise more self-control, but when it comes to healthy chocolate, I’m weak!

Choc Banana Walnut Bites

Choc Banana Walnut Bites

Everybody gets a sweet tooth now and again. I’ll admit that mine rears its head more than most, which is why I like to find healthy ways of satisfying it, so that I don’t pile on the pounds. We all know that sugar makes us fat, so portion control and relying on natural sugars is a must when it comes to the sweet stuff. These little guys are a perfect balance of good fats and carbs – awesome post workout with a shake to help your body synthesise the protein, but also a fantastic little dessert for when you need a quick sweet hit.

Raw Banoffee Pie

Banoffee Pie has long been one of my favourite desserts. Crumbly, buttery and creamy, this traditional pie has been given The Fit Foodie makeover so you can enjoy it without guilt. This recipe is also fantastic for portion control – it makes just enough for two. No more staring at tempting pie for a week in the refrigerator until someone else kindly eats it. Joy!

Sticky Grilled Peaches

Sticky and sweet, these heavenly peaches are balanced with creamy plain yogurt and a sprinkling of heart-healthy nuts. While low-fat, fruit does contain plenty of natural sugar so be sure to watch your intake for the remainder of the day.
