3 Ingredient Healthier Peanut Butter Fudge
This 3-Ingredient Healthier Peanut Butter Fudge is rich, creamy, and naturally sweetened with honey — no white chocolate or powdered sugar needed. Just stir, chill, and enjoy a melt-in-your-mouth treat that’s as simple as it is satisfying.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (250g) unsweetened natural peanut butter with no added oils
- 3 tbsp (44ml) honey
- 1/4 cup (52g) melted coconut oil
Instructions
- Line an 8×4-inch baking loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang for easy lifting.
- Drain off the excess oil on top of your peanut butter before using and measuring. This helps the fudge set properly and prevents separation. In a medium bowl, mix together the peanut butter, honey, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and spread evenly across with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for about 3-4 hours, or until firm. For a faster set, place in the freezer for about 1 hour — just until solid. If freezing, you will need to let it thaw for a little bit before cutting.
- Once set, cut the fudge with a large sharp knife into approximate 1 inch squares and store in an airtight container in the fridge. The fudge cannot stay out at room temperature for more than a few minutes before it will start melting, so it should be kept in the fridge until right before serving. The fudge can be eaten straight out of the fridge (if you are storing in the freezer, you will need to wait a few minutes for it to thaw).
Notes
- Honey note: You can reduce the honey amount if you want these to have less sugar. You can likely use another liquid sweetener substitute.
- Coconut oil note: You can use refined or unrefined coconut oil. You can reduce the coconut oil by 1 tbsp but the fudge will melt faster.
- Peanut butter note: Make sure to use natural peanut butter with no added oils.
- I used Kirkland raw honey, Naturally More organic peanut butter* and Whole Foods coconut oil* to make this fudge.
