Do you follow a raw, Paleo diet, or are you just trying to cut out more processed goods in favor of natural, whole foods? Maybe you just really don’t want to turn your oven on.

Whatever your reasons for eating more raw foods, you know desserts can be tricky. After all, many of them are some form of baked good.

Fret no longer, because we’ve compiled delectable raw, no-bake desserts that feature wholesome, Paleo-friendly ingredients you can feel good about eating.

There’s no cooking required for any of these recipes, though there may be the occasional gentle warming of ingredients, to melt chocolate or emulsify ingredients, for example. This is typically allowed on a raw diet, so long as the food is not heated past 118°F.

Below you’ll find treats like brownies, candies, fudge squares, cakes, and more. You won’t need an oven, but you may need a blender or food processor for best results. Your fridge and freezer will also prove essential to setting treats like tasty lemon cheesecake bites or chocolate hazelnut tarts.

Turn your oven off, and dig in!
