TAHINI FUDGE – VANILLA MAPLE WALNUT

During the warmer months, I love a quick vegan dessert that is no bake because, seriously, who wants the oven on? Healthy desserts of the no bake variety are my jam and this tahini maple fudge is leading the pack right now. 

WHAT IS TAHINI?

So what the heck is tahini anyway? It is a condiment made from toasted sesame seeds. The seed is hulled and roasted, then it is processed into the most delightful and versatile sauce. 

The popular use for tahini seems to be hummus. It is a key ingredient in the classic dip. Try my hummus recipe! It’s great for a summer snack with fresh-cut veggies.

But there are many tahini uses. As I mentioned earlier, tahini is quite versatile ranging from savory dressings to something like this sweet tahini candy recipe.

HOW TO MAKE MAPLE WALNUT TAHINI FUDGE

This Tahini Fudge is a no-fuss, no-muss recipe. Basically stir and freeze! Can you freeze tahini? You sure can! It functions like nut butter so you can both cook with it and freeze it.

But before you freeze, you will stir.

I like to use a fair amount of walnuts in this recipe. They are so buttery good and add that crunch you need.

After it is all stirred together pour the mixture into a parchment-lined loaf pan. You can use any size loaf pan but keep in mind the larger the pan the thinner your fudge will be. I use a standard 7 x 3 loaf pan.

After five minutes, remove the pan from the freezer and sprinkle the last handful of reserved chopped walnuts on the top – this is so they won’t sink and you can see the nuts.

It looks pretty that way!

If counting carbs is your thing, tahini is also low carb. Each square has less than 5 grams of carbs.

That’s good, right?

The main thing is, this no bake recipe is a winner! The sweet maple, buttery walnut, and rich tahini along with the pinch of salt is a lovely combination of flavors.

It tastes fancy but takes no time to prepare.
