Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Line a small square baking pan (approximately 8x8 inches) with parchment paper, leaving some overhang so the fudge is easy to lift out later.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Mix the ingredients well using a whisk or spatula until smooth and fully combined.
Gradually add the almond flour to the mixture, mixing thoroughly until there are no lumps and a thick, smooth batter forms.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
If using, sprinkle the chopped peanuts on top and press them gently into the surface of the fudge.
Refrigerate the pan for 2-3 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set. For faster results, place it in the freezer for 1 hour.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 16 squares using a sharp knife.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
