Carob Nut & Seed Fudge

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened peanut butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup carob powder (what is carob powder and where to purchase)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1 cup oat bran
  • ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, maple syrup, carob powder and vanilla. Mix until creamy and smooth.
  2. Add the sunflower seeds, oat bran and shredded coconut. Mix well to incorporate. At this stage, I find it’s easier to use my hands to mix and squeeze everything together until the mixture forms a dough ball that holds together. 
  3. Press into a 8-inch square pan or form into bitesize nuggets.
  4. Store in freezer and enjoy anytime you want a sweet treat.
