One-Bowl Turmeric Fudge Masterpiece!

If you weren't aware by now, I'm happy to admit that I love love LOVE turmeric!
There's a big reason this powerful spice has taken over the kitchens and menus of 2016 and will continue to do so in 2017.
The compound within turmeric, known as curcumin, is the main active ingredient and gives turmeric it's famous golden colour. It's responsible for a host of anti-inflammatory properties and the ability to offer your immune system a boost. Turmeric can be extremely beneficial in weight-loss, lowering insulin resistance and activating fat-burning genes too.
If you're keen to add more turmeric-y goodness to your life this year, why not try making my Turmeric Fudge, it's super fun and tasty as a quick treat.
Not only does using coconut oil make this recipe bond beautifully, using a healthy saturated fat in conjunction with turmeric makes it easier for your body to make the most of the benefits of this powerful golden spice. Coconut oil can also promote heart health and improve blood cholesterol, so turmeric and coconut oil truly are a match made in heaven.
To make this recipe even more gut-friendly, I’ve added in my Love Your Gut powder which gently cleanses and sweeps away plaque built up in your gut over time. Since using my powder daily, I've found that I no longer experience that dreaded bloated feeling and know that my inner-microbes are in their perfect environment to flourish!

Could you use an alternative to tahini? I don’t have any in my cupboard so could I use cashew butter or almond butter instead?
Yes almond butter or cashew butter would work perfectly. Yum! Lee x
How long do these last in the fridge? Can you freeze them?
They should last up to a week, but if you freeze them they can last for much longer! Lee x
Very Yummy Thanks I used ghee instead of coconut oil as I find the coconut too dense.
Great idea! I haven’t tried it with ghee but definitely will give it a go next time. Lee x
Looks Amazing – is there a substitute for the HYG powder?… I have everything else already?
you can use protein powder if you prefer 🙂 or leave it out altogether!
Just made this as I had a jar of tahini that I needed to use up and had to sample a spoonful before putting in the tin. YUMM !! Added a little extra ginger for the kick. This has to be my new favourite treat. Thanks Lee 🙂 x
Yum that sounds delicious! I’m so happy you’ve enjoyed it and made it your own 🙂 Lee x
I have made this before but lost the recipe. I find this absolutely heavenly and once you taste it you just want to keep eating it. Even people who do not like tahini find it tasty. This is my “sweet” treat and turmeric is so good for you.
I’m so glad you love it! It’s one of my favourite sweet treats too 🙂 x
