Keto Fat Bombs (3 Fat Bomb Recipes)

March 30, 2019 By Lorena Grater

Pin Recipe Jump to Recipe

Keto fat bombs are high fat, keto-friendly treats for anyone on a ketogenic diet. We have 3 different fat bomb recipes for you to make; Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Coconut Butter, and Chocolate Almond Butter. They are all delicious and so easy to make!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Keto Fat Bomb

What are keto fat bombs?

Low carb, high fat, no-bake treats, keto fat bombs are a way for keto dieters to consume enough fat macros. They are decadent, rich, chocolaty, and low in sugar. As such, they’re perfect for any keto dieter who enjoys rich desserts.

Since they aren’t overly sweet, keto fat bombs are perfect for eating any time. Some people on a keto diet use fat bombs to help curb cravings for sweets while others have them with a meal. They’re delicious for breakfast, afternoon snacks, before or after a workout, or as a replacement for carb-heavy snacks.

They can be made in many different flavor combinations, and they are really convenient to have on hand.

Like many other keto recipes, fat bombs are usually made with ingredients like:

  • sugar-free peanut butter or peanut butter powder
  • coconut oil
  • dark chocolate or cocoa powder
  • cream cheese
  • avocado
  • low glycemic sweeteners such as liquid stevia, agave syrup, or monk fruit sweetener

Keto Fat Bombs

Do fat bombs help you lose weight?

Depending on who you ask, the answer to this question may vary.

Fat bombs are 90 percent fat, so of course, they play an important role in helping you stay in deep ketosis. Some nutrition experts suggest using fat bombs purely for snacks, as part of a ketogenic diet. That being said, staying in ketosis requires consuming 70 percent of your daily calories in fat which can be challenging.

So, eating a couple of fat bombs with every meal can help you to achieve your fat intake goal. As a result, they can help you stay in ketosis, effectively boosting your overall weight loss!

Chocolate Keto Fat Bombs

Fat Bomb Recipes and Ingredients

The recipe card below explains how to make 3 different keto fat bomb recipes. They are Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Coconut Butter, and Chocolate Almond Butter.

For anyone with a coconut allergy or simply an intolerance to it, there are 2 options for bases: coconut oil or cocoa butter mixed with cocoa powder.

We also have 2 different choices for sweeteners: monk fruit sweetener and liquid stevia.

In addition to the ingredients, you’ll want to have a mold of some sort to make the keto fat bombs in. I suggest using a silicone truffle mold. (affiliate link)

When it comes time to remove fat bombs from their mold, having them in a silicone mold makes the job much easier. They’ll pop right out, and cleanup couldn’t be any easier!

    Hi ! I am from France, on a keto diet for two months, and I didn’t have all the ingredients; I made the truffles with cocoa butter, erythritol and cocoa powder, then I didn’t have the butters (peanut, coconut and almond), so I put one macadamia nut in every truffle instead. It is delicious, I am afraid to eat too much of them. The erythritol is a little tricky, it doesn’t melt well, it stay in the bottom of the preparation, so you have to stir all along when you want to put the mix in the molds. It is a little grainy but I like that.
    If I can grab some organic peanut butter or almond butter, I will try your exact recipe.
    Thanks for the posts.

    Is there a way to use MCT oil in this recipe?

      I’m afraid that won’t work because MCT oil doesn’t become solid.

    How much water do you add initially, you say a small amount.

      You don’t want your glass bowl to touch the water but you want enough water so it doesn’t evaporate before your chocolate is completely melted. It will depend on the size of your pot and your glass bowl.

    Sounds great! Any idea how this might work with coconut sugar?

      April 9, 2020 at 2:27 pm

      Yes, it should work just fine with coconut sugar. I would use 1/4 cup in replacement for the monkfruit sweetener. Just be aware that the fat bombs won’t be low carb nor keto then.

    I make these all the time! They are by far the easiest fat bomb reciepe and delicious! 😋Quick question, does the nutritional info you have posted include the almond butter etc?

      I’m so happy to read you like them!!! The nutritional calculation was a bit tricky because not all truffles are the same of course. What I ended up doing is take all the ingredients listed in the recipe card and then divide by 18. So one truffle might have less than the other but if you used all ingredients and ate the 18 truffles yourself, on average you’d have eaten what stated in the nutritional card per truffle. Does that make sense? If you use only almond butter though and no coconut butter/peanut butter and also, one truffle has say 1/2 tsp almond butter and the next has 3/4 tsp almond butter it would look different of course.

    Can I substitute erythritol for the monkfruit and if so, would it also be 1/2 cup?

      Yes! You can also simply leave the sweetener out altogether (I’ve already tested that) or use a couple of drops of stevia.

      yes! It works perfectly fine without sweetener. My husband prefers it without so I’ve tested it and it worked great.

    must we use the
    3 tsp coconut butter
    3 tsp almond butter

    because we don`t have it can i just use normal unsalted butter instead

      You can use regular unsalted butter instead of the coconut butter but not instead of the almond butter. It will taste very buttery though, be aware of that.

    Your video says 1/2 cup of coconut oil but the ingredients list on the web site says 1 cup. Which is it? I just did 1 cup but it’s very runny.

      OMG, I’m so so sorry Scotr! It’s 1/2 cup. I must have thought the “/2” and never typed it. I just corrected the amount in the recipe card and recalculated the nutrition information. Gosh I’m so glad you caught it!! Thank you for pointing it out.

    How many bombs are considered a serving?

      1 is considered 1 serving. That way you can calculate how many individual truffles you need to fill your daily fat needs.
