Fat bombs make for a great low-carb/Keto snack that’s peanut butter-chocolate flavored, high in good fats, and low in carbohydrates. For more Keto-friendly recipes, check out this Ground Turkey Stir Fry, this Mexican Chicken-Avocado Salad, or these Beef Lettuce Wraps (just leave out the rice). Why We Love Fat Bombs Ideal for Keto: Supports the high-fat, low-carb keto diet. High in Healthy Fats: Contains beneficial fats for ketosis. Promotes Weight Loss: Helps burn fat for energy. Energy Boosting: Offers sustained energy on a low-carb diet. Tasty and Versatile: Delicious like peanut butter cups, with customizable flavors. Ingredients Peanut Butter: Main flavor and source of healthy fats. Coconut Oil: Solidifies the bombs and adds texture. Cocoa Powder: Provides chocolate flavor to the fat bombs. Liquid Stevia: Sweetens without carbs. Salt: Optional for flavor enhancement. QUICK TIP Fat bombs, a key part of a ketogenic diet, are bite-sized treats made with high fat ingredients designed to help meet the diet’s high fat requirements. They taste similar to a mix of peanut butter cups and fudge. How To Make Fat Bombs Line a mini muffin tray with cupcake liners. Mix peanut butter and coconut oil; microwave until melted. Stir in cocoa powder, stevia, and optional salt. Pour mixture into liners, filling each ¾ full. Freeze for at least 1 hour. Enjoy straight from the freezer. Variation Ideas Add Finely Chopped Nuts: Such as peanuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, walnuts, or pecans. Change Nut Butter In Fat Bombs: Swap peanut butter for almond, coconut, or cashew butter. Mix in Cream Cheese: For a more cheesecake-flavored bomb, add cream cheese to the dough. STORAGE Store fat bombs in the freezer as they melt quickly due to the coconut oil base. Enjoy them directly from the freezer. More Low Carb Recipes: Grilled Fajita Chicken Steak Salad Grilled Avocado Bowls Tuna Salad One Pan Healthy Italian Sausage FOLLOW ALONG!

I love the idea of keeping them in the freezer. That will be so refreshing in the upcoming summer months! Reply
Nothing quite like the combination of chocolate and peanut butter! These will make a great snack in between meals and satisfy my sweet tooth, too! Reply
I’m making these ASAP! I always like to have fat bombs in the freezer and this recipe sounds delicious! Reply
The recipe states to add cream cheese, as optional, but doesn’t state the measured amount in proportion to the base recipe. Can you clarify? Reply
I didn’t have unsweetened cocoa powder so I used 6 mini squares of an unsweetened cocoa bar that had ginger in it, too. Also, I substitued almond for peanut butter and added shredded coconut flakes and 1 organic almond on top. The use of an ice cube tray was great! Reply
The post says that there are 3 carbs and 1 fiber, so that leaves you with 2 net carbs per fat bomb. Reply
I mixed all of the ingredients together and stirred til well blended. Then I microwaved for 20 seconds, stirred til smooth, and poured into molds and placed them in the freezer. My ingredients brought these Delicious Fat Bombs to a whopping 81% fat! Thanks for the recipe 😋 Reply
