These Avocado Turmeric Fudge Brownies are packed with immunity-boosting ingredients. A healthy way to satisfy a chocolate craving!
Mixed with a little cacao powder, protein powder, dates and cashews, these avocado, no-bake treats are the dreamiest fudge bars you’ve ever had.
The avocado’s ultra-creamy texture makes the brownies silky and brings a dose of healthy fats. For sweetness, you’ll just use a bit of maple syrup. You can always add more maple syrup to the recipe, but I found they were rich and sweet with just a touch.

To give the fudge a natural, vibrant orange color, the recipe uses antioxidant-packed turmeric. The spice has an irresistible savory flavor that balances the sweetness from the dates and maple syrup.

Tips:
- Soak dates and cashews for a minimum of 1 hour before draining to make them soft enough to blend smoothly.
- For an extra crunch, add ¼ cup sliced almonds after blending protein powder and cacao powder. Pulse several times to break up and disperse almonds throughout the batter.
