11/20/25: Baking with Love - Mindful Holiday Desserts
In this special Thanksgiving episode of The Kitchen with Jean, we will explore the sweet side of the holidays - but with a nourishing twist that will love you back.
Join me as I share five incredible plant-based dessert recipes that are naturally sweet, made without refined sugar or white flour, because when we choose to bake with intention, we're nourishing instead of just indulging.
I'll walk you through my favorite holiday treats: a warming apple crisp with oat and almond toppings sweetened with maple syrup and date paste, a luscious pumpkin chia pudding that gives you all the flavors of pumpkin pie without the sugar crash, a decadent chocolate avocado mousse that's full of healthy fats and antioxidants, beautiful baked pears filled with cinnamon and nuts, and easy no-bake date and nut bites that are perfect for sharing.
But this episode is about more than just recipes - it's about creating food with love and intention, honoring our health while we celebrate with others. I'll remind you that the holidays aren't about perfection; they're about connection.
Together, we'll take a mindful moment to breathe in gratitude and exhale any guilt or expectations, because when we bake with love, that love comes back to nourish everyone who enjoys our beautiful creations.
Come celebrate this season of gratitude with desserts that will make your Thanksgiving extra special - and leave you feeling wonderful about what you've eaten!
