Healthy treats for horses

We were visiting my niece yesterday. I always take a couple of apples, a few carrots or some celery stalks to feed to her horse and her 7-month-old pony. What other types of healthy treats are good for horses? Didn't Roy Rogers used to give Trigger a few sugar cubes or something similar? Is there a healthy treat easily available today?

Avoid sugar! Oh carrots are a big hit at my aunt's home and she has two. They are great around the kids too which is helpful since we have one niece who is not worried about anything, including a large horse.

We tried to talk my aunt into planting a row of carrots just for the horses. She hasn't gotten around to doing it this year, but who knows? I'll bet those two horses could eat up an entire crop of carrots. I have an aunt who has pear trees, so we're hoping that horses like pears, too.
