    Default Healthy recipes for cakes or biscuits?

    I was wondering whether anyone has "healthy" recipes for cakes or biscuits as I am trying to lose weight at the moment but everyone needs a treat!

    The only one I have found so far is the Oaty Banana cake from the Vegan Society www.vegansociety.com/html/food/recipes/cakes.php

    The second time I made it, I added a grated apple and a heaped teaspoon of ground spices and it worked out well.

    Jen Sen and Gillian McKeith both have health treats in their books.. do you have either of those?

    If not, what sort of thing do you like and I'll send you a recipe or two

    Today we made banana bread, and just used healthy alternatives to the replace the unhealthy ingredients in the recipe. Whole wheat flour instead of white flour, and dehydrated date powder instead of sugar. It turned out pretty good.

    You could also make raw "ice cream" which is really natural and healthy. Freeze some bananas/strawberries, and then put them through a food processor with some agave nectar.
    I eat nutritional yeast by the spoonful.
