Easy Easter Recipes
Come spring, I’m ready to break out all the bright and sunny recipes to share with the kids. And since the Easter Bunny loves carrots, I use them a lot in my recipes at this time of year because it’s just fun!
I’ve put together my favorite recipes to make in the spring, including ones that work well for brunch, breakfast, snack, and dessert.
I love these Easter recipes for kids since they are easy to make (many take just one bowl), and they embrace the flavors of spring.

Raspberry Lemon Baked Doughnuts
With simple ingredients and fresh flavors, these Raspberry Lemon Baked Doughnuts are a fun breakfast for a holiday…or any day. They’re easy to stir together and have the brightest fruit flavor! (I love these for Mother’s Day, too.)
Raspberry Lemon Baked Doughnuts
These bright and fresh baked donuts have the texture of a cake donut, but with a zing of fresh fruit. I like my Wilton Donut Pan for this recipe, though you can also bake them in a mini muffin pan with the same timing. Adapted from Better Homes & Gardens.

Mini Ricotta Cheesecakes
With just a few simple ingredients and freshness from orange and lemon rind, these Mini Ricotta Cheesecakes are the best. We love them for Easter—we actually eat them for breakfast in my family! Plus: You simply stir the batter together, no fancy equipment needed!
Mini Ricotta Cheesecakes
Kids love having their very own little cheesecake, but you can do this batter in a 9-inch graham cracker crust if you prefer. The baking time will then be closer to 1 hour.

Mini Carrot Muffins
Packed with carrots, whole grains, and protein, these Carrot Cake Muffins are a delicious way to start the day. They mix up in one bowl, can be made ahead, and are delicious for a snack or breakfast. Plus: You can be eating them in about 25 minutes from when you start! (There are lots of variations for adjusting these for food allergies, too.)
Healthy Carrot Cake Muffins
These are delicious served warm soon after baking, at room temperature or even chilled, so see what your family prefers. They are naturally dairy-free and can be made gluten-free and egg-free as well. See the Notes section for details.

Bacon-and-Egg Cups
This bacon, egg, and cheese muffin recipe is a perfect brunch dish, especially when you have little onesunderfoot. You can make the muffin-tin recipe ahead of time and simply reheat when ready to serve andthey’ll taste like fresh one-bite frittatas from the oven.
Easy Bacon and Egg Muffins
I like adding the thyme in these for extra flavor, but it's optional! Be sure to grease your muffin tin well with nonstick spray to help prevent these from sticking to the pan. A nonstick mini muffin pan works best here.

Healthy Oatmeal Cookies with Carrots
With natural sweetness from apple, carrots, and raisins, these Healthy Oatmeal Cookies are a yummy treat that you’ll love to share with the kids. And they’re a one-bowl dessert that’s a super fun way to serve up produce, too. (We like to leave these out for the Easter Bunny!)
Healthy Oatmeal Cookies with Apples and Carrots
Make a batch of these healthy oatmeal cookies for dessert, snack time, or a special breakfast. You can make these half the size using 1-tablespoon batter for each cookie and reducing the baking time to about 16-18 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Fluffy Carrot Pancakes (with Yogurt!)
These hearty Carrot Pancakes pack nice natural sweetness from the carrots and applesauce. This can be a thicker pancake batter, so know that you can thin it slightly, if desired, by adding a few tablespoons of milk.
