6 Homemade consumable Christmas gifts
Giving and receiving gifts can be a fun part of the holidays, but it can also be wrapped up in overspending on things that the people in our life don’t actually need or want. This year, instead of gifting something that might become clutter, consider giving a homemade, consumable gift!
Homemade sugar scrub
3 INGREDIENTS / 10 MINUTES
When the cold comes, I like to take a little extra care of my skin with a homemade sugar scrub to exfoliate and moisturize. It’s made with just three ingredients that you likely already have on hand (way better than buying very specific body products).
Lemon rosemary infused olive oil
4 INGREDIENTS / 3 HOURS
This infused olive oil is a fun ingredient to have on hand in the kitchen and is a great gift for the cook in your life.
One-pan sweet and spiced roasted nuts
10 INGREDIENTS / 45 MINUTES
These sweet and spiced nuts are made in one pan in under 20 minutes. They are surprisingly healthy considering how addicting they are and make a great party snack or DIY gift.
Dark chocolate bark
8 INGREDIENTS / 3 HOURS
Not too sweet, reasonably healthy, and super simple to make—this homemade chocolate bark can be made with whatever nuts and dried fruit you have on hand.
Hot chocolate mix jars
4 INGREDIENTS / 15 MINUTES
Make-ahead hot chocolate jars are a fun gift or holiday party contribution. All you have to do is spoon the hot chocolate mix into four mugs, add steamed milk, and stir!
Chocolate covered pretzels
3 INGREDIENTS / 20 MINUTES
These white chocolate covered pretzels aren’t inherently Christmas-y, but my mom makes them every year. Sweet, salty, and crunchy—Everybody LOVES them and you’ll love how easy they are to make.
