Healthy and EASY Super Bowl dessert recipes which are sure to impress! Cookies, truffles, chocolate brownies and more- there is something for everyone!
Super bowl desserts
As someone who does NOT really enjoy watching or taking part in sports, it takes ALOT to get me to partake in game day or super bowl festivities.
However, if there’s one way to win me over, it is without a doubt the food.
For the last ten years, I’ve attended a super bowl party every year, and let me tell you, it was only for the food. I’m pretty sure I spend a good three or four hours with a consistent plate of food in my lap. We start with the appetizers, where I go to town on a buffalo chicken dip and some cream cheese stuffed peppers. I then balance it out with chicken wings and buffalo cauliflower. However, most of my food consumption is reserved for desserts.
Healthy Game Day Desserts
When people think of Game Day, I feel like desserts get forgotten!
There are dips, chicken wings, pizza which try to steal the show, but really, dessert is where it is at.
From no bake desserts, chocolate desserts, muffins, and cookies, all these healthy desserts are quick, easy and don’t taste healthy at all- You can enjoy the big game AND have your cake…and brownies.
What you’ll need to make these desserts
You’ll notice many of the recipes have similar ingredients, so here is a list of ones you will find in multiple desserts-
- Nut and Seed Butter- Peanut butter is the cheapest and easiest to use. Fantastic substitutions tested include almond butter, cashew butter, and sunflower seed butter.
- Dried Fruit, nuts and seeds- Unsweetened shredded coconut and fine macaron style shredded coconut (often referred to as desiccated coconut) are your two main essentials. For the candied nut recipes, be sure to have a variety of pecans, almonds and mixed nuts on hand!
- Chocolate- Stevia sweetened chocolate chips and unsweetened baking chocolate.
- Baking Essentials- Blanched almond flour and coconut flour are the two most-used flours in these desserts. Both can be eaten raw or used for baking!
- Healthy Sweeteners and syrups- For recipes calling for a liquid sweetener or syrup, use keto maple syrup. Granulated sweeteners like powdered sugar or brown sugar substituteare great for desserts requiring a sugar substitute.
