Are you ready to make your own High Fiber Protein Fudge at home? This healthy homemade fudge recipe is quick to make with protein powder, easy to switch up, and great for almost any diet!
Start this healthy homemade fudge recipe by adding right into a food processor 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree, 1 ripe avocado, 1/4 cup of raisins, and 2 tablespoons of honey.
Process all of those ingredients together until smooth.
Don’t have a food processor? Here’s a link to the one I’ve been using for over a decade and recommend!
Continue by adding into your food processor 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 4 tablespoons of peanut butter, 4 scoops of your choice flavor protein powder, 2 tablespoons of chia seeds, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 6 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
Did you know that chia seeds are a great source of fiber with 5 grams of fiber for every 60 calories?
Process those ingredients until smooth while occasionally scraping down the sides if needed.
Choose a complimenting flavor for your protein powder. Vanilla, chocolate, banana, peanut butter, and so on all work great. Let us know your favorite combinations for this high fiber protein fudge in the comments below!
Last, add and mix in 2 ounces of walnuts or other choice nuts. I like to pulse my nuts in and not fully process them to give my fudge a bit of a crunch.
After everything is mixed together you’ll want to take out and line a baking dish or sheet with some parchment paper.
Pour your high fiber protein fudge onto your parchment paper while making sure to evenly flatten out your mix with the back of a spoon or spatula. However thick or thin you want to make it is completely up to you.
Fudge Topping
Optionally top your fudge with a couple pieces of melted sugar free chocolate and put it into the freezer for around 3-6 hours depending on how thick or thin you made it.
You could also change up your fudge add other things either inside your fudge or on top like fresh or dried fruit, chocolate chips, Greek yogurt, sprinkles, etc.
Take your fudge out of the freezer and chop it into however many servings you want!

How much is one serving per the nutrition information provided?
If you cut it into 20 equal pieces, 1 piece would be your serving size.
These made a great snack! They were super sticky out of the freezer but that just gave me a good excuse to luck my fingers.
