Instructions
Line an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together apple butter, peanut butter, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and nutmeg until smooth.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for 1-2 hours or until firm.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan, place it on a cutting board, and cut into 1-inch squares.
For the Homemade Apple Butter (about 1.6 lbs. (750g))
Combine all the ingredients in a large pot. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft.
Use an immersion blender to puree the apples into applesauce, or mash with a fork for a chunkier texture.
Continue cooking on low heat, uncovered, for another 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring every few minutes until thickened.
Once thick, transfer to a glass jar. Store in the fridge for up to two weeks or freeze for longer storage.
