No-bake strawberry recipes

1. Chocolate strawberry coconut butter cups

Meet peanut butter cups’ fruit-friendly cousin. These vegan treats are filled with a shredded coconut and strawberry cream and are covered in a coconut oil and chocolate coating. If you love to snack on Reese’s, you’ve gotta try them.

2. Strawberry chia seed pudding

Eat this for breakfast or dessert… we won’t judge. Just make sure you leave time in the fridge for the chia seeds to expand.

Besides tasting delicious, they also look pretty gorgeous. The strawberry puree almost makes ’em look like margaritas. Topping the bowl with more fresh slices gives it a picture-perfect finish.

3. Cheesecake-stuffed strawberries

If you’re eating keto, these cream cheese-stuffed strawberries are probably calling your name. A little bit of powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream mixed in will make you feel like you’re actually eating cheesecake. Best of all — no utensils necessary.

4. Strawberry shortcake smoothie

Ditch the pound cake and drink this classic dessert instead. This more nutritious milkshake uses cashew butter, dates, and oats to get a thick, creamy, and slightly nutty taste that will replicate strawberry shortcake’s flavor.

Like the chia pudding above, this strawberry recipe makes for a tasty dessert or a sweet breakfast.

5. Chocolate-covered strawberry truffles

Get the taste of chocolate-covered strawberries without all the mess. #Winning

These bite-size truffles couldn’t be easier to make, especially since you only need four ingredients: fresh strawberries, dried strawberries, coconut flour, and dark chocolate chips. They take about an hour in the fridge to set. After that, the only challenge is resisting the urge to eat them all at once.

Paleo *and* vegan? Who woulda thunk it?

7. Strawberry cookie tart

Why settle for a cookie when you can have a cookie crust topped with cream cheese frosting and sliced strawberries?

This tasty tart looks complicated, but the recipe instructions make it a breeze. You’ll want to make sure you have special ingredients like graham flour and a fresh lemon (for lemon zest) on hand. The end product will be worth that extra trip to the supermarket!

8. Strawberry jam bars

Though these sweet, crumbly dessert bars are made with strawberry jam, you can swap the jar for a carton of fresh strawberries instead. Just remember to chop your berries nice and small so that they cook together into a beautiful, juicy mash.

The spices in this strawberry dessert lend a perfect blend of summer and autumn flavors. These bars are equally at home at a summer picnic or at a fall dinner party.

9. Lemon rhubarb curd tart with strawberries

This gorgeous, fruit-bejeweled tart tastes as scrumptious as it looks. Behold, tangy rhubarb, ruby-red strawberries, and zesty lemon atop a buttery, flaky crust.

Bonus: the filling can be made a week in advance, so there’s no need to stress about perfect timing if you’re baking this for a fancy-schmancy dinner date.

10. Strawberry chocolate chip muffins

These muffins are already lightened up with substitute ingredients like egg whites and applesauce. Adding strawberries gives you a serving of fruit in your dessert too.

Plus, strawberry + chocolate = a match made in heaven.
