    Ensure your Passover seder ends with a sweet bite by baking any of these 20+ Passover dessert recipes. The seder meal and the days of Passover can feel restrictive because of the lack of certain ingredients. Many families have special traditional foods they like to have during Passover but there is always room for new dishes. You must have at least one dessert to finish the meal right and enjoy another last, sweet bite. 

    What is Passover and when is it celebrated?

    Passover is the Jewish holiday that celebrates the liberation of the Jewish people from slavery in ancient Egypt. During Passover, Jewish people refrain from eating leavened bread and instead eat matzah, a type of unleavened bread. Passover is one of the most important holidays in the Jewish religion. The holiday is celebrated during March - April every year. This year Passover starts on April 5th and lasts till April 13th. Passover also signifies the beginning of the spring season and the cleaning that comes with it. Passover dishes usually include fresh-in-season fruit, vegetables and many delicious dishes. 

    I am sharing with you a variety of Passover friendly dessert recipes. Classic and traditional recipes that are mostly parve (kosher dairy free), with vegan, gluten free, low carb options, desserts with almond flour and also non-gebrokts options too. Your family will love these recipes!

    Here are some delicious Passover dessert recipes that are perfect for this holiday:

    1. Pistachio cake

     A delicious and unique dessert. This gluten-free and parve cake is made with almond flour, pistachio butter, sugar, olive oil, and eggs. It's the perfect way to celebrate this special holiday in a flavorful way.

    10. Homemade Marzipan

    Marzipan is a sweet, almond-based confection that is often used to decorate cakes, pastries, and candies. It is made from ground almonds, sugar, and sometimes egg whites. My recipe doesn't call for eggs and this marzipan is the best gluten free treat for Passover.

    11. Charoset cake

    In case you are wondering, Charoset is a sweet, fruit and nut-based paste that is traditionally eaten during the Jewish Passover Seder. It symbolizes the mortar used by the Israelites in their forced labor in Egypt. There are many variations of charoset. My family makes a type of Ashkenazi-style charoset and I used its leftovers to bake this yummy cake. I would recommend this recipe for the week of Passover or after if you have leftover charoset.

    12. Strawberry mousse

    This strawberry mousse is a simple dessert that is light and airy and is super refreshing. Made with cream which makes it dairy and not parve.  Perfect as a snack and only calls for 3 ingredients.
