Easy Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge

Sharing is caring!

Hello, so glad you've popped by and landed on my last recipe post for 2017 before I head off on holiday, but this easy peanut butter freezer fudge recipe is one of my favs so I'd better get it online so that people can make it!

This easy peanut butter freezer fudge is a recipe I would describe as healthier or healthy-ish I would definitely not be so bold as to call it 100% healthy peanut butter fudge although I have seen some recipes that are fairly similar touted as exactly this

Let's not get silly about this, yes this peanut butter fudge is refined sugar-free, but it is still what I consider a treat as it still contains a fairly significant amount of sugar in the form of maple syrup, which although not refined sugar is certainly an added sugar.

What does set this easy peanut butter fudge recipes apart from other very sugary fudge recipes is that it is loaded with healthy fats and protein from the peanut butter, and the ease factor!

No heating or boiling sugar which means kids can totally make it! So I would say it is a healthy recipe in terms of fudge, but we shouldn't be kidding ourselves thinking fudge is super duper healthy!

If you are looking for a lower calorie treat to make with the kids, my healthy coconut ice slice is a great one to try!

I have a number of bliss balls on my site that are lower in sugar too such as Carrot Oat Energy Bites, Strawberry Breakfast Bites and, Apple oat no-bake bites  . 

Or if you are a peanut butter fan then you can't go wrong with my Peanut Butter Chicken Salad Sandwich, , Choc Chip Peanut butter Pumpkin Cookies, peanut butter bars or my grain-free peanut butter cream cookies
