If you're looking for a peanut butter frosting recipe that the kids will love but one that won't ruin their teeth and make them bounce off the walls, try this sugar-free peanut butter cake frosting recipe. Its both vegetarian and vegan and goes great with a vegan chocolate cake or even a vegan chocolate peanut butter cake!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup flour

Preparation:

Whisk or blend together all ingredients until smooth and creamy. Perfect for a vegan birthday cake for the kids or vegan cupcakes.

One user found this peanut butter frosting to be a bit thick, so she added a bit of soymilk to thin it out.

NOTE: To make this recipe truly sugar-free, make sure that the peanut butter you are using has no added sugar.

This looks like a tasty and easy recipe, but I think it's a bit of a misnomer to say that it's ""no-sugar"" or to say that it won't make your kids bounce off the walls. Maple syrup is lower on the GI scale than sugar for sure, but it's still up there, especially when paired with other processed carbs like cake. I'd make this over regular frosting any day, but I'd call it Maple Peanut Butter Icing rather than ""no-sugar.""
