Why Are Keto Fat Bombs So Great?
- They are full of healthy fat that will keep you full for a long time
- They are basically dessert (unless you make a savory one, and then it’s basically a meal)
- There are endless possibilities with just 3 ingredients
Did I mention you can have chocolate?
What 3 Ingredients Are Needed For The Best Keto Fat Bomb?
- Healthy Fats: MCT oil, Coconut Butter, Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Coconut Cream, Coconut Milk, Ghee, Grass Fed Butter, Nut butters, Suntella, Heavy Whipping Cream, Cream Cheese
- Texture/Binders: Nut Flours, Shredded Coconut, Chia Seeds, Walnuts, Pecans, Ground Flaxseed, Whey powder, MCT Oil Powder, Collagen Powder
- Flavoring/Spices: Keto-approved sweeteners that are powdered, granulated, or flavored/liquid [see section below], Extracts such as vanilla or peppermint, Spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg, Sugar Free Jello, Sugar-Free Maple Syrup, Cocoa Powder, Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips
So pick 1-2 ingredients from each category and get to experimenting! You will literally never run out of ways to make fat bombs.
Once you’ve picked your ingredients, usually it’s just a matter of combining the ingredients according to the recipe then freezing/refrigerating for the fat bombs to set up.
Most often, you will store the fat bombs in the fridge or freezer for best results, but some will stay together on-the-go.
Keto-Approved Sweeteners
- Monk Fruit Sweetener [granulated, powdered, liquid, flavored]
- Sugar-Free Maple Syrup
- Stevia
- Erythritol [granulated or powdered]
- Keto sweetener blends
- Xylitol
- Allulose
- Yacon Syrup

Silicone Molds For Making Keto Fat bombs
Trust me. You’re going to want some great quality silicone molds when making fat bombs. They are non-stick, super easy to clean, and flexible so it makes the fat bombs easier to pop out and pop into your mouth.
If you don’t have these, you can use anything you have on hand really. For the fat bombs that need to set up in the freezer, you can use a mini cupcake tin or loaf pan.
Or you can freeze the entire batch and scoop out with a small cookie scoop. Some fat bombs you can just form into dough balls and store in the fridge.
Fat Bomb Meal Prep
Another great benefit of fat bombs (besides being the easiest thing in the world to make) is the fact that each one of the below recipes are 1-2 net carbs, only take about 10 minutes to make, and make about 20-40 fat bombs that you can keep in your fridge or freezer. I love that these can be easily meal prepped on a Sunday and last you a month. Well…maybe 2 weeks since these taste so dang good!
These aren’t just for those following the Keto diet either. Your kids or anyone you know for that matter will love these tasty treats. You can make these as an appetizer for your next party and no one will know the difference!
So go into the Holidays with some backup to help you stay on track and away from the cookies (unless, of course, it’s a Keto cookie). Check out the recipes below and tell me what you think!
