These clean and healthy dairy-free Sunflower seed Butter Fudge slices are so decadent and filling.  I'll be honest these slices taste like a creamy dream!  Loaded with healthy fats and protein from coconut, and sunflower seed butter.  Intensely satisfying and a decadent dessert for any healthy foodie.

Can I tell you how fudgy this fudge is?  It's super dense, yet melts in your mouth.  The creaminess of this treat is so decadent that you really will not believe it's healthy or dairy-free.  A perfect slice of fudge minus that horrible sugar crash and stomach ache.  Beyond delicious and filling!  This is the PERFECT diet treat because healthy fats and protein make you full, and full faster.

SUNFLOWER SEED BUTTER JOURNEY

If you are nut-free and gluten-free beyond like me then you know what a drag it is to find free-from treats that are healthy and store-bought!  I'll get really excited about a product all to realize there is an ingredient that I cannot consume.  Instead of feeling deprived, I decided to make my own.  I make my own all the time.  It's a choice to feel good again regardless of how hard it may be.  My advice to you is to get creative in the kitchen and experiment and make recipes from your favorite bloggers!  You will always have a choice.  Chose wisely.

As an avid reader of baking blogs, I searched for the perfect treat that would be filling and delicious.  Beth from the Tasty Yummies blog is definitely a blog on my radar for paleo and gluten-free eats and she should be on yours too.  She's pretty keto as well.

It's a blog I trust that actually has delicious recipes and she's been around the health and wellness scene for a long time as a gluten-free blogger.

I was even able to sub in my allergy-free substitutes and it was still beyond amazing!

Whenever I see tahini in a recipe I sub it for a seed butter I can have.  And that's what you can do too!  Don't think you cant change an ingredient.  Especially an ingredient like a nut or seed butter.  This one originally called for Tahini as you'll see in her recipe.  I subbed in Sunflower seed butter.

SUNFLOWER SEED BUTTER FUDGE TIPS

  • I adapted this recipe to fit my dietary needs.  The original recipe is by Beth at Tasty Yummies. 
  • Instead of Tahini, I use unsweetened Sunbutter
  • Unflavored collagen powder (or flavor of choice) (omit if vegan) I use Vital Proteins
  • For the candida version, omit all sugar, or just use a few drops of liquid stevia

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sunflower seed butter unsweetened
  • ½ cup coconut oil solid
  • 1 teaspoon coconut butter packed
  • 1 tablespoon honey organic
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup pure
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips sugar-free

  • ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt or sea salt also used for garnish

Instructions

  • Line a bread loaf tin with parchment paper.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the coconut oil, coconut butter, honey, maple syrup, sunflower seed butter, and stir. Slowly melt, mixing often until the mixture is creamy and blended.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips, collagen powder mixing until well blended. Reduce heat to low.
  • Just before you take it off heat, add the vanilla extract, a pinch or two of sea salt, and liquid stevia. Do another quick stir, then remove from heat.
  • Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, shake on the counter to make the mixture look even, and top with remaining sea salt sprinkle.
  • Put into the freezer for at least 4 hours.  Once solid, remove from freezer and let it defrost or soften for a few minutes
  • Then lift the parchment paper onto the counter and cut into slices.
  • Always serve frozen. Storing in the freezer is best. Keep for up to 6 months.

Notes

Store these treats in the freezer until you are ready to serve them.  // The ingreidents I used are Vital Proteins for unflavored collagen powder, Sunbutter brand for organic sunflower seed butter, liquid stevia by Nu Naturals.  I choose these brands because I trust them. //

Health and love,

    Yummm! Fudge is one of the hardest treats to make dairy-free because of the sweetened condensed milk but this looks divine. Love how many healthy ingredients you've managed to pack in here too! I really need to hop on the collagen trend at some point--it seems like everyone is loving it lately.
