If you love sweetness, fall, fudge and all things pumpkin spice, this easy pumpkin spice fudge recipe is a must this season!

For years I’ve had to heavily moderate my consumption of pumpkin spice everything… thanks to worries of not only seasonal weight gain, but also the general dangers of over consumption of sugar and processed foods and drinks.

Sugar-Free Pumpkin Spice Fudge

So this year I'm going crazy with creating fun pumpkin spice recipes that are just as yummy, autumnal-ly spicy, and sweet, yet healthy and all sugar free, so I can indulge guilt free all season long!

After some testing in the kitchen I've discovered the only recipe for sugar free pumpkin spice fudge you’ll ever need.

Great for fall snack, a fabulously delicious finger food dessert for your autumn Thanksgiving table or even a spooktacular candy for you Halloween party.

This pumpkin spice fudge is the perfect hassle-free guilt free treat you need to keep on hand at all times during the pumpkin spice season… and since it stores in the fridge or the freezer for a long time, it’s the perfect recipe to store as backup for whenever you have psl cravings!

You get some warm notes of nutmeg and cinnamon from the chai combined with the rich and creamy pumpkin for the perfect fall treat. Don't judge me for saying this, but this fudge is truly a dream come true.

Balancing Spices in the Sugar Free Pumpkin Spice Fudge

Trust me, you will not be disappointed… these decadent squares are perfectly fudgey, chewy, rich and creamy. As you take a bite you get warm notes of nutmeg and cinnamon, with very lightly spicy sweetness, a very pleasant but not overpowering fragrance and then that rich and creamy pumpkin texture making for the perfect fall treat. Don't judge me for saying this, but this fudge is truly a dream come true… its autumn in a bite.

If you’re a pumpkin-lover and crave something sweet and autumnal but don’t want any of the sugar and calories that normally come with a treat, eat these! From now on whenever I have a sweet tooth for pumpkin desserts I'll have these lovely squares around.

And… actually this recipe is super healthy thanks to that lack of sugar and sweeteners, the power of the cell-protecting antioxidants and numerous vitamins from the cinnamon and other warm fall spice can shine through to hit you up with health benefits.

It’s also the perfect treat to include on a low-carb or ketogenic diet, since these fudgey bundles of joy are filled with plenty of healthy fats to balance your blood sugar.

Delicious and nutritious, I don’t know about you, but I like the sound of that!

Sugar Free Pumpkin Spice Fudge will make this season really feel like autumn throughout the holidays.
