Easy And Healthy Easter Recipes

Easter holiday is the time to connect with your loved ones. There are plenty of recipes that are easy and healthy to make for your family and visitors. Let’s look at these:

1. CHICKS & BUNNIES (SOFT-BOILED EGGS & SOLDIERS)

CHICKS & BUNNIES SOFT-BOILED EGGS cool wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Let stand at room temperature while you continue with Step 3 and preheat the oven.

5. SEEDED WHOLE-GRAIN QUICK BREAD

Bake this healthy, seedy loaf for Easter Sunday, and you can enjoy it all week, if it doesn’t vanish faster. This quick bread recipe is the perfect vehicle for both sweet and savory toppings so try it as avocado toast one time and with honey the next time. Store it tightly wrapped, as all the seeds make it a little more apt to dry out than typical whole-wheat bread.

INGREDIENTS: 10 SERVINGS

• ⅓ cup unsalted sunflower seeds
• ⅓ cup unsalted pumpkin seeds
• 3 tablespoons flaxseed
• 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 2 cups white whole-wheat flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 3 large eggs
• 1½ cups buttermilk
• 1 cup rolled oats
• ½ cup avocado oil or extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey or pure maple syrup

PREPARATION
PREP 25M
READY IN 4H

Method

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
• Combine sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flaxseed and sesame seeds in a dry medium skillet; toast over medium heat, stirring, until lightly brown and starting to pop, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Reserve 2 tablespoons of the seed mixture in a small bowl; transfer the remaining seeds to a large bowl. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to the large bowl; whisk to combine. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl, and then stir in buttermilk, oats, oil and honey (or maple syrup). Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients; stir and fold together until combined. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the reserved seeds.
• Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Let cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Make-Ahead Tip: Store airtight at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
