Description
Creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate combine in these easy, low-carb keto fat bombs. They’re sugar-free, quick to make, and perfect for satisfying sweet cravings while staying on track with your macros.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 g) natural peanut butter, unsweetened and creamy
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) coconut oil, refined or unrefined, melted
- 1/3 cup (35 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup (45 g) powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
- Optional: flaky sea salt, chopped roasted peanuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
- Line a mini muffin tin with 16 paper liners or set out a silicone mold with 16 cavities. Lightly spray with coconut oil if desired.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine peanut butter and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until melted and smooth (about 60-90 seconds total). Alternatively, melt together in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Whisk in cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until completely combined and glossy. The mixture should be pourable but not runny; if too thick, warm for 10 more seconds.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate level as desired.
- Pour or spoon the mixture evenly into the 16 prepared molds (about 1 1/2 tablespoons per cavity). Tap the tray gently to level out the tops and release air bubbles.
- Sprinkle with optional toppings such as flaky sea salt, chopped peanuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips.
- Chill in the freezer for 30-40 minutes or in the fridge for at least 2 hours, until completely solid.
- Once firm, remove from molds and transfer to an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freezer for up to 2 months. Enjoy straight from the fridge.
Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother mixture. Always use powdered sweetener to avoid grittiness. Store fat bombs chilled for best texture. Swap peanut butter for almond or sunflower seed butter for nut-free or flavor variations. Optional toppings add crunch and extra flavor.
