Yummy Dessert Recipes Everyone Will Love Without Artificial Dyes

Just bake from scratch, which is quick, easy and cheap. Unless you add food coloring, sprinkles or colored chips/candy to a cookie, it has no dye in it (chocolate chip, peanut butter, sugar, oatmeal, etc.).

Brownies and blondies are easy to make from scratch and most mixes, even conventional brands such as Duncan Hines and Betty Crocker, don't add dyes to those.

Cake, cheesecake, pie, fruit desserts...the list of desserts without artificial colors is endless if you make them from scratch. Many yellow cake mixes and white frostings do have dyes in them so those are worth making from scratch. Most chocolate cake mix does not have color in it so you are safe to use mixes for those.

I wouldn't stress about this of go out of your way to buy expensive mixes. Just figure out what your kids like and make those without dye. I bake a lot and the only time I use food coloring at all is for adding color to icing. Other than that, it doesn't get used at all.

I always bought a mix too for brownies, but I found this one that's really easy and my kids prefer it to the box mix now.
Recipe:
1/2 c. butter, melted
1/2 c. unsweetened cocoa (we like the dark chocolate cocoa)
1 c. sugar
2 eggs 2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt ( I usually omit)

Combine all. Add in 1c. choc. chips or chopped candy pieces. Put in 8 in. pan. Bake at 350 for 25 min. Double recipe for a 9X13 pan.

These always come out fudgy and yummy! and really don't take much longer than a mix.

How about a nice no bake cheesecake with pureed strawberries for topping.

Cake and frosting isn't hard to make from scratch, you just have to do a few more steps than a mix.
Flour, sugar, milk, butter, eggs, cocoa, etc. there's no dye in any of it.
Same thing with homemade pies, cookies, muffins, brownies, whatever.
They may not be colorful but they will be sweet and delicious!

Yep, make brownies from scratch. They are pretty simple. And if you want to dress them up, cut them into tiny bites, partially fill a dessert dish, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream (organic) then some cut up strawberries, and a dollop of whipped cream. Yum!

Or a berry pie. Black and raspberries, blue berries, strawberries, rinsed and (strawberries cut up) mixed with sugar, a bit of cinnamon, and cornstarch... then spooned into a flour crust. Put another crust over the top, or use strips to make it lattice topped. Absolutely wonderful!
