Prep: 5 minCook: 1 hour chillTotal: 5 min
Servings: 18 squares 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup refined coconut oil, melted then measured
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar, honey or maple syrup
  • flakey salt for topping

Instructions

  1. It’s always best to melt the coconut oil before measuring. Place the coconut oil in the microwave for about 1 minute until liquid-y. 
  2. Measure all the ingredients and add them to a large bowl.

  3. Whisk until the ingredients are smooth.

  4. Line a bread pan with parchment paper. I like to fold the parchment so it hangs over the two long sides of the pan and I clip them in place with paper clips or chip clips. Pour the peanut butter mixture into the pan.

  5. The contents should settle itself into the edges and corners but if it needs some help, give the pan a little jiggle so it settles into an even layer. Place the pan in a freezer on a flat surface so the fudge sets evenly.

  6. Chill for about 1 hour or more until the fudge is set.

  7. Glide a knife around the edges of the fudge that are touching the sides of the pan and pull the parchment edges to remove the fudge from the pan. Sprinkle with flakey salt for the most delicious sweet and salty combo.

  8. Cut the fudge into squares. I cut mine into 18 squares.
