Sunshine enjoys dessert every evening after dinner, even in the summer. So she doesn't get bored with the same old thing, I try to create a variety of fun favorites for every season.
These are our 10 Favorite Summer Desserts! All are gluten free, dairy free, soy free, corn free, and refined sugar free to meet Sunshine's dietary needs.
I love the variety of flavors and textures in these summer desserts. Each one is absolutely delicious!
If someone in your family has any of the same dietary needs as Sunshine, these summer desserts are definitely worth a try!
10 Summer Desserts: Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free, Corn Free, & Refined Sugar Free
1. Vegan Coconut Milkshakes
The other day Sunshine heard someone mention milkshakes. She had never had a milkshake before and was determined to try one. Two nights ago she had her first one, the chocolate milkshake shared in this post, and now LOVES milkshakes. Princess and I also tried the milkshake. It was divine!
2. Raspberry Oatmeal Bars
These raspberry bars are a staple in our home during the summer. Everyone who can eat them LOVES them. The only thing I recommend is not using as much lemon. Instead of corn starch we use tapioca starch.
3. Gluten Free Vegan Peach Cobbler
We have a peach tree in our yard and are always looking for new peach recipes to use when the fruit is ripe. This peach cobbler is heavenly, especially when you add a scoop of diet friendly ice cream to it.
4. Coconut Popsicles
Sunshine is a huge fan of popsicles and chocolate. She becomes quite jealous when siblings have some and she doesn't. These popsicles combine two of her favorite flavors: coconut and chocolate. You can't go wrong!
5. Sugar Free Lemon Blueberry Cake
This sugar free lemon blueberry cake is so good. It's sitting in the refrigerator right now! Instead of 3/4 cup low carb sweetener, we use half the amount of honey. When it comes to frosting, we use our own recipe which includes coconut cream, honey, and lemon juice.
6. Triple Berry Pie with Gluten Free Crust
I can't say enough about how delicious this pie and crust are. Berry pie is my absolute favorite. This one does not disappoint. Sunshine loves it equally as well.
7. S'mores
Childhood isn't the same during the summer without s'mores roasted over a campfire. I was so excited when I found this graham crackers recipe for Sunshine. (I've never included the pork rinds. Instead we use the almond flour.) We then melt down Lily's chocolate chips into bars. The finishing touch is Max Mallows!
8. Keto Lemon Cookies
These cookies are absolutely divine! We usually use about half the amount of honey instead of the other sweeteners recommended. They are still so yummy! I used to freeze them and send them to residential for Sunshine.
9. Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
I absolutely love anything flavored with strawberry and rhubarb. This dessert is no exception. Sunshine also enjoys this dessert as she loves strawberries and any recipe that includes oats. Sometimes we replace the coconut sugar with half the amount of honey.
10. Coconut Key Lime Pie Bars
Another one of my favorite summer treats is key lime pie. I desperately wanted to find a way for Sunshine to enjoy this dessert as well. These bars do the trick and are fairly easy to make!
If you're looking for summer dessert recipes to meet the dietary needs of your family, we hope you enjoy these treats as much as we do!
