Chocolate peanut butter keto fat bombs (2024)

I'm all about that little sweet bite! I mean who doesn't want a homemade peanut butter cup that tastes like Reese's but is way healthier?

My sweet tooth has to be satisfied on a daily basis. Usually, that means a tasty treat like these keto fat bombs or healthy buckeyes!

I'm not on the keto or low-carb diet - I prefer a balanced eating approach, although I do love these as a healthy sweet snack! Sometimes I even add a scoop of collagen protein powder for some added benefits!

However, I like to be mindful of refined sugar and carb intake. These keto fat bombs are one of my favorite keto dessert recipes to prep for a week of delicious and healthy treats!

Why This Recipe Works

• A healthy treat to reduce processed sugar in your diet.
• Satisfies your sweet tooth and gives you a chocolate fix.
• Perfect healthy treat whether following keto or not.
• Dairy-free, gluten-free, flourless, vegetarian, and vegan!
• Keto dessert recipe that is satiating and keeps you full.
• Quick and easy to make a home, with cheaper and better ingredients than store-bought versions like Slim Fast.

• peanut butter or nut butter: My favorite nut butters are cashew butter and almond butter from Georgia Grinders. They have unbelievable Whole30 and Keto-approved nut butters. Save 20% on your Georgia Grinders almond butter with code "LYNDSEY20".
• stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit sweetener: you can also use stevia drops. Powdered sweeteners will work the best to make smooth cups while using granulated may result in a bit of gritty texture.

How to Make This Recipe:

Below are step-by-step instructions for how to cook this recipe. The recipe card at the bottom shows the exact cooking time and temperatures.

1. Add chocolate layer ingredients together and mix until smooth.
2. Pour evenly into 12 silicone muffin cups. Allow mixture to freeze for ten minutes.
3. Mix together the peanut or almond butter layer.
4. Evenly pour over the chocolate layer. Freeze for ten minutes.

You essentially mix all of the ingredients up and let them set. I like to freeze mine for easy storage.

Expert Tips

• Adding in more cocoa powder will make these more dark chocolate keto fat bombs. Reduce the amount of cocoa powder for a less intense flavor.
• Try swapping out the vanilla extract for coconut extract and adding in some shredded, toasted coconut for a delicious treat. Peppermint extract, orange extract, and almond extract would also be a tasty flavor.
• If you need them to be nut-free substitute almond and peanut butter for sunflower butter.
• If you do not have a muffin tin, use an 8X8 pyrex dish and create a yummy keto candy bar. Alternatively, use an ice cube tray to portion out the bites.
• Store them in the freezer and take them out right before you intend on eating them. Due to the coconut oil, keto fat bombs tend to melt quite quickly.
• Make a cheesy cheesecake layer by adding in a few tablespoon of softened cream cheese to the chocolate layer. Cheesecake is one of my favorite keto dessert recipes!
• If you are not a fan of stevia try replacing it with monk fruit sweetener or powdered erythritol.
• Adding in chopped nuts like walnuts, pecans or almonds makes a delicious topping.
• Add chopped strawberries or raspberries as a layer between the chocolate and peanut butter for a fruity twist.
