A Few Frequently Asked Questions About How to Make Keto Fat Bombs

Should I use peanut butter or almond butter when I make Keto Fat Bombs?

Peanuts are a controversial ingredient in diets such as Whole30 and Paleo.  Even with the keto diet, there are some people who will not eat them.

I also like to make these keto fat bombs with almond butter.  Almond butter cups are a delicious alternative to chocolate keto fat bombs made with peanut butter.

What are Keto Fat Bombs?

Keto fat bombs are high fat, low carb snacks.  If you’ve ever wondered what do fat bombs do for keto, here is your answer!

They are designed to give your body a healthy dose of fat needed to provide satiety and give you an energy source.  For me, they are like dessert and keep me full and not wanting to snack on empty calories.

You may also wonder, when should I eat a keto fat bomb? I like to keep these on hand so I can have a sweet treat mid-day.  The healthy fat from the peanut butter or almond butter and coconut oil keep me satiated.

What if I don’t have a muffin pan?  How can I make these fat bombs?

Did you know that you can also make these into Keto candy bars?  Instead of using muffin tins, you can use an 8X8 pyrex dish and create super easy keto candy!

Can I eat peanuts on the keto diet?

Peanuts are considered a legume and can cause inflammation in the gut which is why some people choose to forgo them.  Although this keto fat bomb has peanuts, if they are an issue for you, just swap out for almond or another low-inflammation nut butter.

My favorite nut butter are cashew butter and almond butter from Georgia Grinders.  They have unbelievable Whole30 and Keto approved nut butters.

How Many Fat Bombs Can I Eat on Keto?

Runner’s World recommends 1-3 per day.  The amount you eat will depend on your individual nutrition goals.

How to Make Peanut Butter Keto Fat Bombs

Most Keto fat bomb recipes have just a few ingredients.  A healthy fat (i.e. coconut oil or nut butter), flavoring (i.e vanilla extract, stevia, cacao), and texture (i.e. almonds, coconut, seeds, etc).   These chocolate keto fat bombs include peanut butter.

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

    For the stevia drops, what’s the conversion with regular granulated stevia? Can’t find the drops in my local store and I have SO MUCH granulated stevia on hand. Thanks for the intriguing recipe!

    I just found this. I don’t have liquid stevia either.

    Dissolve one teaspoon of white powder in three tablespoons of filtered water. Pour the solution into a dropper-style bottle and refrigerate. You can also buy ready-made stevia liquid concentrate from your local health food store.

      you can use any natural peanut butter. check the sugar count to make sure it’s just peanuts, and doesn’t have added sugar.

    The cocoa is very overpowering! The kids will be getting this batch. If I makes these again, I will do with 1/4 of the amount above.

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      definitely depends on your tastes for sure! I like a strong chocolate flavor but definitely dial down if you want a more mild flavor.

    Are the macros posted for eating all 12. So you would divide those numbers by 12 to get macros for 1 fat bomb. Or are the numbers per bomb?

    Reply

  11. Suzi

    Could you tell me approx how many this makes? you do say to put them in little muffin papers, but don’t say how many? mini muffin papers? curious as to the macros per serving.

    Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      scroll down for macro info! It’s listed at the end of the post. I used regular sized muffins and it made about 12. You could make mini ones too, it would just make more. Just take the total amount of the macros at the end of the post and divide by how many total you end up with.

        Hi! I just made these using mini muffin tin. There would not have been enough of either filling to use regular sized tin! I double checked everything so I ended up with 12 tiny minis. You just said here you used a regular size 10. But the recipe says mini so I’m a little confused. Thanks looking forward to trying them after they freeze

        Reply

        • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

          I did use a regular one and filled them halfway up. So they were minis for me but I did not make them in a mini pan since I didn’t have one.

      I haven’t made them with the confectioner’s type! If you do use it, I would see what a powdered sugar to regular sugar calculation would be and then use that!

    Hi! I’m using mini muffin pan to make these but do I need to use muffin liners? I made them without and now I can’t get them out of the pan!

    Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      I did use muffin liners. I would imagine they would be very hard to get out of the pan if they were frozen to it. Def recommend liners!

    • Rachel

      I made these last night and i didnt use muffin liners n mine popped out so easier right outta the freezer. I also have a nonstick pan tho so that maybe y it worked for me. But these are pretty amazing

      Generally I believe it’s 2 TB of PB2/one TB of water which is 1 TB of nut butter, correct? I cannot attest to the flavor of these though as I do think PB2 would dilute the peanut butter taste. If you try it, let me know how it goes!

      Reply

  16. Carol

    We made them with PB2, the last time, but my granddaughter was helping/showing us how to make them and I missed the ratio, they turned out great and didn’t lack the PB taste. Thanks for your reply.I will let you know how mine turn out. lol

      stevia is actually not an artificial sweetener. It’s derived from the stevia plant. You could try them with no stevia but I can’t guarantee how they would taste

      Reply

        • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

          gotcha!! if you do try without a sweetener, let me know how it tastes! You may try Swerve too, it’s another keto-friendly sweetener that may work!

    These are so delicious!!. It is my evening sweet treat with a cup of tea. They have become a staple in my daily diet!! Thank you for posting this recipe.

    I make these with powder stevia. 1 1/8th of a tsp is enough. But I also used carob powder it is very satisfying. You cant eat too many. But you dont need to. They fill you up. Nice to have the combination of carob and peanut butter.

    I followed this but it only made 9 cups for me… Haven’t tried them yet, but they are in the freezer so I am excited. I had a really hard time getting the chocolate into the muffin papers as it was so sticky and just not coming off the bowl haha.

    Mine turned out super bitter. Too much cocoa or maybe the sweetener? I used the liquid Pyure. I couldn’t even eat them.

    Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      I’ve never used liquid Pyure so I am not sure how it tastes. If you follow the directions to a T and they are still bitter I would use less cocoa powder. But definitely could be the liquid Pyure.

      Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      they shouldn’t take too long to thaw. I would say maybe 5-10 minutes max. I usually eat them half frozen 🙂

    I made these yesterday. Thanks so much, they are delicious! Shared it with my sister and noticed something missing today… didn’t you offer 1/4 cup Swerve instead of 1/4 tsp liquid Stevia?? I used Swerve confectioners sugar replacement.

    I tried this with the coconut oil but I just am not a fan of coconut. So I was going to try it with just butter. You said the unsalted butter right? Also what’s the conversion between the drops and granular Swerve? Thank you!!

    Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      butter would work great! My hubby is the same way, not a fan of coconut so I will make with butter sometimes. the granular swerve may make it grainy so I would use caution when using. Just make sure you stir well. The conversion chart says 3/8 tsp liquid stevia to 1 tsp Swerve. You may have to experiment to see where you want it!

    I stretched the recipe to 24 using my candy molds. Added extra stevia as it didn’t seem it would be enough for me. 🙂

    The video and the written instructions vary quite a bit. The video calls for 4 T unsweet coco, the recipe says 1 tsp. It’s quite a difference! Can you please clarify which one is correct? Thanks!

    Reply

    • mommafitpgh@gmail.com

      the recipe notes call out that less cocoa powder make for a less intense cocoa flavor. We’ve had feedback that more was too bitter for some. If you want more intense cocoa flavor you can use up to 4 tbsp.

    I just made these and they turned out DELICIOUS! I’m so excited, as I am new to keto and I was wanting a sweet treat and these certainly did the trick. Thank you for such a simple recipe!

    Hi, I prefer monk fruit as the sweetener over stevia but not sure how much to use. I have the Lakanto liquid extract, should I use 1 tsp of it?
