    10 Healthier Vegan Desserts For Your Holiday Sweet Tooth

    Indulgence does not need to mean unhealthy. This list of vegan plant-based treats gives you some healthier desserts to indulge in this holiday season!

    10 Healthier Vegan Desserts For Your Holiday Sweet Tooth

    It's holiday season. Are we freaking out yet? Presents to buy and wrap, holiday cards to send, and then we have Peety our elf on the shelf. I won't even get started on him (read love/hate relationship).

    But most of all, parties. SO MANY PARTIES. Don't get me wrong, I am a party kinda gal, but staying healthy and somewhat fit during this time is so hard! The desserts seem to beckon with their siren call. Eat me. Just one won't hurt. Yeah, don't ever believe them.

    Even one seems to be a slippery slope to cookies for dinner...which is why I have compiled a list for you all! I'm here to keep you in check, but keep your tastebuds and indulgent urges happy. Meet my top 10 healthier vegan desserts for helping you indulge the plant-based way this season!

    I Said Healthier.....

    I wouldn't say desserts are exactly healthy, but these little numbers can definitely be called healthy vegan desserts in comparison to their very unhealthy counterparts.

    Wash them down with a nice tall glass of Silk plant milk, and you will feel satisfied to the core. What you won't feel is the heavy bloated gross feeling that seems to come hand in hand with the holidays! Drumroll please...

    10 healthier desserts to indulge your holiday cravings

    Eggnog Latte Pudding- A happy marriage between your favorite vegan eggnog & your favorite Starbucks drink all whipped up into a latte inspired eggnog pudding!

    Who's ready to indulge the healthier way this holiday season?

    I'm thinking this list of healthier desserts to indulge in should keep you busy for a while! And I guarantee you'll get props all around if you bring them to your next holiday party. Just because your treats happen to be vegan, does not mean they have to compromise on flavor! As my favorite milk brand Silk says, #doplants! It's definitely possible even with delicious vegan holiday treats!

    Happy holidays from my family to yours!

      What a delicious round-up! And I can tell that you love chocolate as much as I do. That said, those scones may be the first thing I try!
