Ingredients
-
1/4 cup
Almond butter, no sugar or salt added
-
1/4 cup
Natural peanut butter, no sugar or salt added
-
1/4 cup
Raw cashew pieces
-
1/4 cup
Coconut oil, melted
-
1/4 cup
Canola oil
-
1 teaspoon
Pure vanilla extract
-
2
Small apples, or enough to make 1/2 cup chunky sauce when blended
-
1 tablespoon
Pure maple syrup (or more to taste)
Directions
-
Dice apples, with skin on, and purée with blender or food processor (I used an immersion blender for this whole recipe). You want at least 1/2 cup of purée.
-
To the apple purée, add the rest of your ingredients and let them go to town until a smooth consistency is achieved.
-
Pour mixture into the pan, smooth with a spatula and tap on the counter until you have an even layer.
-
Pop this baby into the freezer for 30-45 min until firm but still able to run a knife through.
-
Cut into cute lil squares (snacking on the edges that you may choose to cut off for a more uniform appearance is also a great idea at this point) :)
-
Keep your healthy fudge in the freezer and pull out as desired for a treat. Let them come to room temp for a few minutes.
