This almond pulp freezer fudge is easy, healthy and perfect for a quick sweet tooth fix.
I love Saturdays. Period. Brett and I left the house this morning at 8:30 for a morning of fun errands. First, he went to a boxing class while I hit up Whole Foods. I got rolled oats, nutritional yeast and wheat bran from the bulk section and two cartons of almond milk (to try and make homemade yogurt with...I'll keep you posted) and only spent 8 bucks! That's a win. After Brett got out of class we sold some of our books at a book store. We only made $25 for a lot of books, but it felt good to get them out of the house and to make some money. We are slowly trying to get ride of things we don't need and sell some of our bulky furniture in preparation for moving to NYC. Slowly being the key word. We're getting there though! Next was the Farmer's Market in Winter Park...or at least so we thought. Traffic was crazy the closer we got to the market. Luckily we found parking not to far away. Once we made it to Park Ave, the main street in Winter Park, we realize why there was so much traffic. There was an art show! Hundreds of people were there perusing the art, eating popcorn and hot dogs and just enjoying the beautiful, Florida weather. The Farmer's Market wasn't happening, but all the art we got to see made up for it. I'm amazed by people's artistic abilities. Incredible. We walked around for a while until Brett wanted some food. He got a Burger at BurgerFi, a new-ish restaurant in Winter Park and then we headed home.
I guess I'll stop boring you with Brett and my Saturday shenanigans and get to the good stuff. Fudge! The last recipe I posted was for Homemade Almond Milk and I mentioned that there are different ways you can use the almond pulp that is left over after you make your milk. No reason to waste all that nutritious goodness! This fudge is easy and healthy and I just keep it in the freezer for a quick sweet tooth fix. Enjoy!
📖 Recipe
Almond Pulp Freezer Fudge
Ingredients
- ½ cup old-fashioned oatmeal
- ½ cup raw almond pulp
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar
- ¼ cup almond milk
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil

- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Line an 8 x 8 baking dish with wax paper and set aside.
- Using a food processor, start by processing the ½ cup of rolled oats into oat flour.

- Once smooth, pour into your prepared baking dish.
- Freeze for 2-3 hours. Then remove the fudge from the dish and cut into pieces. I cut mine into 30 pieces, but you can make them whatever side you want.

Hi there!
Any suggestions for alternatives to the oats? This looks really great!

Hi! I'm not sure as I haven't tried this recipe with any alternatives. My best guess would be almond flour or coconut flour! You might not need as much if you use coconut flour as it absorbs a lot of liquid. Let us know if you try anything out and how it works for you!
