Mothers’ Day Desserts!
Here are 10 healthy recipes that would be perfect for Mother’s Day:
This recipe is probably the easiest “fancy” dessert you could ever make.
On the page, you’ll find recipes for Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes, Snickerdoodle Pancakes, Red Velvet Pancakes (sans food coloring!) and even Chocolate-Chip Cookie Dough Pancakes!
If your mom likes banana bread, she’ll like these even better!
This recipe makes just two muffins: one for you, and one for your mom!
Big Fat Coconut Breakfast Cake
This cake-like bread would go perfectly with a breakfast scramble and tall glass of orange juice.
Chocolate Strawberry Truffle Pie
Do you want a show-stopping fancy dessert that looks like it took hours to make but can really be prepared in just 5 minutes? This is the one to try!
Flourless Chocolate-Chip Cookies
This is one of my mother’s personal favorite recipes, so I had to include it on here!
Your mom will never guess the secret ingredient.
This recipe is my mom’s #1 all-time favorite recipe on my entire blog!
Question of the Day:
What is the best thing about your mother?
After telling me, be sure to go tell her if you can.
Whatever! I love your lists, I find them inspiring.
The best thing about every mom, not only mine – unconditional love.
What a beautiful collection! So perfect for Mother’s Day. Great recipes each and every one!
I would like to invite you to share some of your posts on a new photo based recipe sharing network that launched only this Monday. The idea is simple: recipe photographs are published within minutes of submission. No rejections, no reviews. And, of course, the images link back to the author’s site.
It’s called RecipeNewZ (with Z) – http://recipenewz.com.
I hope you get a chance to visit and to share some of your delicious posts with our viewers. It would be a pleasure to have you on board 🙂
great list Katie, thanks!
man… my three year old is SO NOT ready to make any of those desserts.
Anything you can come up with that’s easy even for him? lol… okay maybe i’ll just clue him in on this in a year or so. -.- !
my mom rocks, but I haven’t seen her in over 15 years. hehe
Hmmm… tough one lol.
I bet he could do any of the Fudge Baby flavors if someone supervised. Wouldn’t want to leave a 3-year-old alone with a food processor, right? 🙂 But he could put all the stuff in, turn the button, and then roll them.
Or he could just make you a homemade card. Safer ;).
Give him banana, peanut butter, cocoa powder and let him mash away:

I would think any of the banana butters in a large plastic bowl would be super kid friendly to mess with.
Good for you for starting them young!

My mom is selfless and very practical. Being a single mother, she had to learn to do everything herself… so she not only cooks, cleans, and does laundry but also mows the lawn, lights the pilot light in the attic when it goes out, fixes things… she’s like a mom and dad in one, and I love her.
My mom has a great and very twisted sense of humor.
Love the jelly roll! How’d I miss that one?
So so glad you’re cutting down the round up posts, I always like to just see a recipe best. I understand you enjoy writing those posts though, I just don’t like reading them and always get disappointed when I see one, so … phew…. as it happens it’s been a while since I looked at your blog because the lack of new recipes and frequent round up posts made it less appealing to me, and when I saw another round up post I was about to give it up for good, but then I saw what you wrote and that you had got feedback you were taking on board and thought that’s great – but why has she then gone and done it again… what the…?!!! Anyway… recipe… please please… that’s my feedback… I feel like since you’ve one pro I can, for your sake mind, express my views more freely, even… er… be a bit demanding…. still the best healthy dessert blog in my view and my favourite by a mile… 🙂
Sarah, you need to read this: https://lett-trim.today/2012/05/10/from-breakfast-to-dessert-10-healthy-mothers-day-recipes/#comment-353725%3C/a%3E%3Cbr /> And the three posts under it as well.
As for your claim that CCK is posting a “lack of new recipes”, well I count three new ones this week and three the week before. What do you want, one every day? Maybe if you actually paid her, she’d give you one every day! I think you need to think about how ungrateful and self-centered your comment sounds. 🙁
It should be possible to post honest feedback!? Ungrateful and self-centred is a bit harsh! Maybe I could have put the point better, all I was saying was that I agreed with what she said in her post and the feedback she said she had got. Yeah one every day would be really nice!!! but I can’t say I’m not grateful for any or all of the ones I’ve seen and often followed. It would be a perfect blog for me if every time I looked there was another recipe but on the other hand it’s perfect for others to have the round robins so a balance is great and I don’t expect the blog to be just tailored to me! I’d also value being able to be honest and free to comment without a slanging match. But yeah, sorry if my comments came out the wrong way, this really is my favourite dessert blog (healthy or otherwise :-))))
WHO forces you to read them and wears you out?! There is a delete button on every one of these modern new machines! Honesty is great but there is no need to be negative to someone so giving. Yours is a totally unnecessary comment designed to make someone very generous feel like they have been a burden to you. Good grief! Thank you Katie for the FREE recipes – I love the round-ups as they remind me of recipes I have forgotten and show me ones I haven’t seen being somewhat new.
Lets not forget who is the blogger and who is the reader here.
