Healthy Spring Dessert Recipes


Delicious dessert recipes to celebrate spring.
Celebrate the sweet flavors of spring with our healthy dessert recipes that are full of fresh fruit. We’ve lightened up traditional spring desserts, such as pies, crisps, cobblers, strudels and more, so you can end your meal on a high note with a sweet and satisfying dessert. Try Strawberry-Rhubarb Strudel to enjoy spring’s best combo or Peach, Rhubarb & Ginger Crisp for a lighter version of this classic fruit dessert.



Meringue-Topped Strawberries & Rhubarb
Poaching brings out the flavorful strawberry and rhubarb juices with minimal effort. An airy meringue on top of the poached fruit is a healthy (and gorgeous) stand-in for a heavier whipped-cream or ice cream topping......

The fruit filling is sweetened to match the peach-rhubarb combination—if you use other fruit that is very ripe and/or sweet, reduce the sugar in the filling to 3 tablespoons. The topping can be made ahead, so consider making a double batch and storing half in the freezer to have on hand for a quick dessert......


Strawberry Pandowdy
