Chocolate Low Carb Vegan Fudge

This Chocolate Low Carb Vegan Fudge is melt in your mouth good! It only takes a few minutes to make with very few ingredients.

Chocolate Low Carb Vegan Fudge

Vegan Keto

Since the holidays are upon us, I thought I’d share this Chocolate Low Carb Vegan Fudge recipe with all of you. I have been making it for several months now because I have been eating a vegan keto diet.

You will still see recipes with bread and other high carb foods interspersed between the low carb posts since I have about three months worth of recipes waiting to be posted.

Low carb vegan kind of sounds like an oxymoron, doesn’t it! Normally I eat beans, grains, and other foods that have a good amount of carbs in them.

In the past you would find me substituting a lettuce wrap in place of bread, or cauliflower rice in place of regular rice, so that part hasn’t changed much.

The biggest adjustment has been with beans, fruit, and hidden sugars. I haven’t been eating beans, except for edamame. I plan on adding other beans back into my diet, but at a smaller quantity then I ate before.

Keto Chocolate Fudge

Bananas are my go-to fruit for smoothies. Now I use raspberries or about a quarter to a half of a banana instead of a whole. I have to use a lot less sweetener in a recipe, or use a sugar free substitute.

Since I started eating this way I have had NO allergy symptoms. I looked at the calendar one day and realized that the Fall allergy season came and passed.

I have had bad allergies both during the Spring and the Fall. It has been so bad in the past that I have been bedridden.

I wasn’t really planning on eating this way long term, but considering how great I feel, I may stick with it.

Besides eating low carb, I have been eating high fat – the keto diet for those of you who are familiar, but veganized. I have been eating good quality fats like avocados, coconut oil, and almond butter.

This Chocolate Low Carb Vegan Fudge falls into the fat bomb category for those of you on a keto diet.

Vegan Fudge Recipe birds eye view.

I first tried this low carb fudge using stevia, which is not my favorite sugar free sweetener because it can be bitter if you use too much of it. I have gotten used to the taste, but still prefer erythritol or a very small amount of dates or agave syrup to sweeten recipes.

This keto chocolate fudge has a dark chocolate taste to it, so it isn’t too sweet. It goes well with almond or peanut butter. Just break up some fudge into the nut butter, sprinkle on a little salt, and eat by the spoonful!

    You had me at “low carb”! Definitely can’t wait to make this fudge. I hesitate to eat all the holiday goodies because of the carbs and calories, it’s so nice to be able to have a little treat of my own.

      Thanks Joanie! It’s a hard time of year to be eating low carb, isn’t it! So at least we have alternatives!

    I’ve been craving chocolates and now I don’t have to worry about calories with this one — and such a simple procedure.
    Thank you, Willow!

    I love fudge! Especially around the holidays, but I don’t like how heavy it can be. This seems like the perfect alternative! I’m so excited to give it a try 🙂

      Thanks Chelsea! You don’t need to heat the fudge if you are using stevia. Erythritol needs to be heated to dissolve.

    What great ideas to use coconut oil and almond extract…I normally don’t like fudge, but this looks soooo good.

      Thanks Shannon! This fudge tastes more like dark chocolate, so if you normally don’t like fudge, but like dark chocolate, you may like this!

    Do you use canned coconut milk or the other kind in the carton? Thanks!

    Do you have the nutritional value for those of us who are doing the Ketogenic Lifestyle? Especially the Fat / Carb / Net Carb?

      In my app I have 11 grams fat, 1 gram net carb, 0.6 grams protein, and 102 calories per one piece of fudge. I apologize though because I don’t know if that was for stevia or erythritol. I believe it was for stevia. Erythritol has 4 carbs per teaspoon, so not as ideal on a keto diet. When I did keto, I added in more carbs after a few months, so used erythritol in addition to stevia to sweeten things. Also, I prefer the taste of erythritol.

          Thanks Grace! I haven’t calculated the 2 Ingredient Vegan Peanut Butter Fudge since I am no longer counting carbs, etc., but since there are only two ingredients it would be really easy to find out with an app like MyFitness Pal.

    Hey Willow! Just wondering how big each piece of fudge ends up per a 12 serve distribution?

    Thanks!

      It’s been awhile since I made these, but as I recall I think they were about 1 1/2″ by 1″ or so, and about 3/4″ deep. I hope that’s correct, because I am going on memory.

    This recipe looks great! Can I substitute a different artificial sweetener? Something like NaturaTaste that comes in packs? My mom is a Type-1 diabetic and I’d like for her to be able to eat some fudge without using up too much insulin, and she doesn’t like the taste of stevia.

      You sure can! Stevia is definitely an acquired taste.
