Clean Treats for Everyone by Laura Fuentes is a nice cookbook for those who are looking to learn a healthier way to make sweets. Most of the ingredients are fairly easy to find and learning to make some was a nice touch, but seems time consuming. I guess this would be good if you are searching for that sweet snack and prefer a healthier way to make it, I’m just not sure that it’s worth the extra work for me personally. 

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this cookbook.

Gorgeous book! I would make almost every single recipe in this book! Not all the recipes have photos but the ones that does are mouthwatering! Every recipe tells you if it is gluten-free, dairy free, egg free, nut free or vegan and they use ingredients such coconut milk, oat flour, coconut sugar and almond butter. I can't wait to make some of these recipes! I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review

This book is what it says. A superb collect of tantalising recipes made in a clean way. When I say that it means with unprocessed or minimally processed products.  These tasty recipes have been made with Easy to find products.  Giving these baked good to your family will put a smile on your face knowing you are giving them something healthy but nutritious.
An easy to follow book. Clearly labelled and great photographs.  I’ve already highlighted so may to try baking with my daughter.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the arc in return for an honest review

I love the idea of this book and I had high expectations from this book. The best part is, that this book met all of those expectations. I felt the recipes were amazing and easy to follow. I didn’t get the chance to try any of these but I will definitely be making a lot of these soon. Also, everything in the pictures looked so delicious!

Having had some dietary/GI issues in the last couple of years despite my clean eating habits, I'm still self-experimenting with what I can actually process and I'm excited to try the recipes from Clean Treats. I've never made my own oat flour (just recently discovered that I can do oat milk), and I'm a coconut lover in general (thankfully lots of coconut included in the recipes), so there are a few things I've added to my baking to-do list. While the instructions aren't numbered, the photos and clean design of the book make it easy to follow. #CleanTreatsforEveryone #NetGalley

Drool-worthy pictures and recipes. This book is full of yummy treats for any palate. 

I liked the basic information on clean eating and what to keep in my pantry. Simple icons at the top of each recipe help you find the right one for your dietary restrictions. 

My family's favourite: Chocolate Mug Cake - chocolate-y and fast.

Clean Treats for Everyone is a beautiful cookbook with good recipes. All the recipes are free of refined sugars, yet the recipes are inviting and something that I really would want to make. There are no weird or rare ingredients but rather those ingredients that everyone has on hand or in their cupboards. There are many recipes to choose from and all the photos are beautiful. This really is a good, clean eating cookbook.

Wonderful recipes of yummy goodness, much healthier than the tried and true treats you find on store shelves. Some might seem intimidating and complicated, but after trying to eat a cleaner lifestyle I realized it isn't near as hard as it first seems and is actually even tastier, with richer, fuller flavors. And even fun! Beautiful photos, well organized, and creative. She uses a lot of oat, almond, and coconut flour, and I actually learned how to make my own oat flour to make things easier than trying to buy. Recommended for those who want a treat but crave a healthier version.

Even the most finicky eater will find some love for these clean treats. From some beautiful bread recipes, to bars, cookies, ice cream, cake, and pies... just in a more natural clean eating way. No matter your allergen you will find something that will amaze you and make you want to head to your kitchen....stat.

   What did I like? I loved the friendliness of the cook book and the wonderful pictures. The zucchini bread caught my eye, along with lemon bars and the caramel sauce. I’m just going to have to find some oat flour first. All the recipes are pretty much gluten free, and as long as you buy milk free chocolate they should all be dairy free as well. This is a fantastic find for people looking to replace sugar.

   Would I recommend or buy? I would love a copy! I think this was a fabulous idea for a cookbook. Clean eating is a must! People with diet restrictions will love this idea. I can’t wait to make the zucchini bread. A fantastic find!

   I received a copy to voluntarily read and share my opinion.

 This recipe book publishes October 6, 2020 and it presents a lot of ideas on how to make some treats with healthier ingredients. Love the photos along with recipes, I cannot wait to make them. They look really interesting, easy to make and the ingredients should not be that hard to find.

However, once I started to delve into this book, I was very tempted by the eclectic array of treats on offer. In my mind I am already rewriting next week’s shopping list, in order to maximise the number of clean treats we can try. I must remember that there’s a limit to the amount of treats one family can eat!

The lemon bars were divine and next I would like to move on to the banana choc chip bars.

My husband and I tried a few of the recipes in this book and we are HOOKED! The flavors are out of this world. I knew I had to read as soon as I saw the cover photo, because we typically make a very unhealthy alternative of the pictured squares. We brought the book version to my parents house and they liked them even more! Healthy and tasty ... it's a win-win. I'll definitely be trying more of these recipes in the future. The instructions are very clear and the images make my mouth water.

Clean Treats for Everyone initially caught my attention because of the crisp photo on the cover.  The food photography throughout the entire cookbook was phenomenal.  Even the treats that don't normally interest me had me drooling because of the photos.  I was taken with the font choice and the clean/white space used for each of the recipes.  I found it easier to follow the directions for cooking with the larger white spaces around the verbiage.  The healthier options for desserts is a must have read for those baking with kids.

... I am bi-country at the moment


When life for the entire universe and planet turns on its end and like everyone else you "have nothing to do" while your place of work is closed and you are continuing to be in #COVID19 #socialisolation,  superspeed readers like me can read 250+ pages/hour, so yes, I have read the book … and many more today. And it is way too hot to go outside, so why not sit in from of the blasting a/c and read and review books?? 

I requested and received a temporary digital Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley, the publisher and the author in exchange for an honest review.  

From the publisher, as I do not repeat the contents or story of books in reviews, I let them do it as they do it better than I do 😸.

Healthy and wholesome recipes for desserts and snacks made with all-natural ingredients and no refined sugars.

Clean Treats for Everyone, features dessert and snack recipes made with simple and easy-to-find ingredients for eaters of all ages.
 
If eating clean foods is a priority, then you know how difficult it can be to find snacks, treats, bars, and baked goods with suitable ingredients at the store. With the recipes in this cookbook, you don’t have to give up desserts or compromise your snacking.
 
All you need are a few real food ingredients you’re likely to already have in your pantry like fruit, nuts, seeds, oats, alternative flours (almond flour and coconut flour) and natural sweeteners (honey, maple syrup, and coconut palm sugar) to create delicious treats such as: 
 
Double Chocolate Banana Bread | Pumpkin Spice Coffeecake | Chocolate Mug Cake | Raspberry Crumble Bars | Apple Nachos | Coconut Dip | No-Bake Magic Bars | Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake
 
All of the recipes inside are naturally gluten-free, and you’ll also find customizable dietary options to fit the needs of your family, from dairy-free and nut-free substitutions to tips for swapping out ingredients and storage.
 
The cookies, bars, balls, baked goods, smoothies and frozen treats will satisfy the craving for a healthy dessert, make a happy find inside a lunchbox, or as a midnight guilt-free treat!

I want to say, first off, that there is NOTHING wrong with organic cane sugar (or non-organic/white/beet sugar), no matter what the author says, nor is there any need for gluten-free flour...but if this floats your boat, then this is the book for you. Truth be told, if I want a HEALTHY DESSERT I will eat fruit - baking is for real foods in small quantities.  (Wheat flour is REAL FOOD! So is sugar beet sugar!!!!)

This is a great recipe book if this is your kind of dessert - well-written recipes that will appeal to that kind of person or celiacs: it is amusing that my one nephew is marrying a celiac who used to bake with nut flours until she met (allergic) him. 

As always, I try to find a reason to not rate with stars as I love emojis (outside of their incessant use by "🙏-ed Social Influencer Millennials/#BachelorNation survivors/Tik-Tok and YouTube  Millionaires/etc. " on Instagram and Twitter... Get a real job, people!) so let's give it🥧🥧

Clean Treats for Everyone is exactly what the title promises - it's all the sweet and chocolatey stuff you could want, made with clean ingredients. And the author takes the "everyone" part of the title very seriously and notes known allergens, when, and with what, they can be switched up with.
I really liked how all recipes were presented, and even the weirdest sounding ones, e.g. Chocolate Zucchini Bread, sounded quite inviting.
Another great thing about the book is the design - with small notes about the recipe giving more than one type of measurements, so it's suitable for more people - I work with ml and grams much better than 1/2 cup, 2 tbsp, etc.
Overall, definitely something worth checking out when in need of something to sate your sweet-tooth.

This is such a wonderful cookbook. The recipes are free of refined sugar, and would work well for people on restricted diets. I'm allergic to diary and eggs and wheat and I was able to find quite a few recipes that I could use (although not all the recipes were egg-free.) The pictures are beautiful. And there's a wide variety of recipes to choose from.
