The Veggies in These 9 Delicious Desserts Will Surprise You

Instead of loading up your red velvet cake with artificial colors, use beets for that bright red hue. 

For extra soft, pillowy dough with a golden color, use sweet potato-enriched dough. The warm spices, like cinnamon, complement the sweet potatoes beautifully, too.

Carrots aren’t just for cake. Add them to brownie mix to amp up the moisture factor and add a little texture.      

Put all that riced cauliflower to good use with this delicious pudding, with almond milk, cinnamon, honey and egg whites. It’s better than plain riced cauliflower any day.

Save this recipe for the height of zucchini season when you have squash coming out of your ears. It uses a whopping four cups of zucchini, plus heart-healthy oatmeal.

Go green with this springtime cake, stuffed with spinach in the batter. Don’t worry – it’s for color, not flavor, but it still packs a fiber punch. 

This cake is similar to the spinach cake but tastes like apples, which is a sweet revelation. 

In this protein-packed cake, you’ll taste lemon and cream cheese, not a little green legume.     

We already know that a dash of cinnamon is great on a baked squash, but in a dessert, squash has the vibe of pumpkin pie.
