So there I was faffing about with my apple (as you do) and thought “hey this would be a good thing to do for people looking after bored kiddies this summer” Apple “doughnuts” aren’t a new thing but never the less they would be such an easy way to pass time and encourage food interaction with the youngins’ Just core and slice a few apples and stick what ever decorations you want them to use and boom a fun interactive (sort of healthy) dessert
Little hers: mini crackers with butter, carrot sticks, plain (high protein) greek style soy yoghurt with chia seeds and cinnamon, apple, strawberries, cranberries and almonds
The box of donuts is really a pill box….Emma’s holding her favorite, a cheerio dipped in chocolate, then sprinkles. The others are cheerios dipped in confectioners’ sugar and cheerios rolled in cinnamon sugar.
How to make the mini cakes:
The mini cakes are really oreos with a layer of frosting between them, then more frosting on tops and sides…plus decorations.
The cakes should “rest” before anyone tries cutting a slice so the oreos have a chance to soften and become, yes, cake-like. Emma used a small pastry tip to make florettes and tubes of colored gels for the lettering.
This Turkish dessert has a prep time of 5 minutes, and only uses 5 ingredients. What holds it together is crushed cookies or wafers. The chocolate flavor comes from cocoa powder.
This is a quick and easy recipe for kids to help make as they can use their hands to mash all the ingredients together.
I love cherries and strawberries, nothing better then summer fruits. Those popsicles are so yummy and easy to make. They are great for kids, or as a healthy summer snack. You will need:
2 cups organic cherries (pitted )
2 cups organic strawberries
1 TBS pure water
Mix all in the Vitamix or high speed blender until smooth. Pure the mixture into the popsicle molds and let it set in the freezer. Enjoy! Happy summer : )
Pour the mixture in popsicle molds and set in the freezer for about 15 min. Then Mix:
organic raspberries
organic blueberries
Add the the second mixture on the top of the popsicles and freeze until solid. Enjoy them on a hot summer day. Very refreshing and great for kids as a healthy snack. Happy summer!
