What You Will Need
- Almond Butter – 1 cup of smooth almond butter. My favorite is by Prozis. Use the code code KATIE10 for 10% off!
- Coconut Oil – 1/3 cup melted coconut oil. This is what gives these that true fudge consistency.
- Maple Syrup – 1/3 cup maple syrup. I use the brand Lakanto because it is sweetened with monk fruit and lower in calories. If you use pure maple syrup, adjust the macros below accordingly.
- Protein Powder – Optional, but I highly recommend it! Protein makes you feel fuller longer & is great for lean muscle mass. I use 45 grams of the vegan protein by Prozis. Use the code code KATIE10 for 10% off.
- Toppings of Choice – Make these your own! I will put some topping ideas below.
How To Make Them
- Line a small 8×8 square dish with parchment paper (or use a silicone one like me). Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the almond butter and protein powder. mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add in the coconut oil & maple syrup. Mix until fully incorporated.
- Press the mixture down into the bottom of your dish. Top with your favorite toppings.
- Place in the freezer until completely hardened. Slice into 16 slices and enjoy!
Topping Ideas
- Melted chocolate – I like Hu or Lily’s as healthy options.
- Nuts – almond, peanuts, pistachios, pecans, etc.
- Seeds
- Caramel – Try my date caramel!
- Sea salt
- Pretzels
How to Store Leftovers
Store your leftover fudge in the freezer. It will be too soft if you store it in the fridge, Let the fudge thaw for 5-10 minutes after removing from the freezer and you will be good to go!
