Why avocados make great desserts
Avocados and desserts, the perfect match
Whether you’re looking for a raw food treat or just want to replace dairy in your baking, avocados are the perfect fruit. Avocados add creaminess and a delicate flavour to bliss balls, cheesecake, fudgy brownies, muffins and slices. Here’s why avocados make great desserts.
The good fat
As well as creaminess, avocados add good fat to desserts, making them healthier.
The healthy fats in avocados help you absorb essential fat-soluble nutrients (such as vitamin E), reduce the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, help maintain heart health, promote healthy skin and are great for the waistline.
Avocados also contain a brain-loving bundle of nutrients that help put you in a good mood, boost your energy levels and fight fatigue. So it’s a treat for you, and your mood.
