Holiday desserts might be full of nostalgic memories, but they're also full of calories, fat, and loads of added sugar.

The next time the urge to bake pops up, blend one of these sweet smoothies that will keep you satisfied and support your healthy goals, whatever they might be. Photos: Lizzie Fuhr, Jenny Sugar
