• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons sugar free maple syrup (I use Lakanto)
• 1/4 cup sugar free dark chocolate chips (I use Lilys)
• 1/4 cup chopped cashews
• Pinch of Himalayan salt
Instructions
- Gently melt the coconut oil, then stir in the maple syrup and peanut butter. Leave to cool slightly.
- Place the other ingredients in a large mixing bowl and combine.
- Pour the liquid mixture into the bowl and stir well.
- Line an 8 x 5 freezer proof dish with parchment paper, then pour in the fudge mixture. Top with extra chocolate chips and leave to set in the freezer for a minimum of 3 hours.
Tigernut Flour Alternatives
I love tigernut flour for it’s gut health boosting properties and sweet, nutty taste, but you can replace it with coconut flour in this recipe with great results.
