Kids deceptively delicious recipes1/23/2024 Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (hides banana & zucchini.Blueberry Oatmeal Bars (Hides spinach… make sure to let them cool first!). I’ve also never added the frosting and the kids don’t miss it! Chip cupcakes (hides pumpkin & yellow squash. Banana Bread (hides cauliflower- which my husband refuses to eat in any other form!).Applesauce Muffins (hides butternut squash).Let’s face it, if I weren’t hiding veggie purées in these items they’re all just flours, fats, and sugars! I feel so much better watching my kids eat a chocolate chip muffin when I know it’s full of pumpkin! Our favorite recipes from Jessica Seinfeld’s Deceptively Delicious are: I still try to feed my family lots of fruits and veggies in their original form because let’s face it everyone needs to eat their fruits and veggies!īut now I can take things like pancakes, muffins, and breads and supercharge them. This cookbook has been such a wonderful concept. And although we eat as much raw food as possible… let’s be honest most of it still gets cooked, reducing the nutrients even further!

But I didn’t want to give it back, so I started accumulating my typical mound of library fees. To start with I was too cheap to buy it so I checked it out from the library. We’ve had lots of fun batch cooking parties with these recipes because the kids actually EAT the stuff! There are certainly some recipes that my kids like more than others, but I think that comes down to your family’s preferences. My friend Christy pointed it out to me & my sister-in-law Bethany at the same time. Jessica Seinfeld’s Deceptively Delicious cookbook is WONDERFUL.
