Keto Fat Bombs are made from healthy fats. Think avocado, coconut oil, and nut butters. If you mix those all together, you get something that we (the interwebs) like to call fat bombs. They’re like bath bombs, except they fizzle less inside your stomach! The other ingredients you add are dealer’s choice. But if you’re making these fat bombs to stick with a keto lifestyle, avoid ingredients that are high in carbs.
– ¼ cup creamy peanut butter – ¼ cup virgin coconut oil – 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder – ½ tsp. pure vanilla extract (use sugar-free if keto) – 2 drops liquid stevia (up to ¼ tsp. or 1½ Tbsp. honey)
– Place peanut butter and coconut oil in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring continually, until it turns into a smooth liquid. – Add cocoa powder and stir until fully combined.
– Add vanilla extract and liquid stevia (or honey), and stir until fully combined. – Remove the saucepan from heat and pour mixture into a silicon mold. – Freeze the fat bombs for at 20 minutes before eating. Store in freezer.
Short for “ketogenic,” it focuses on consuming lots of healthy fats, a moderate amount of protein, and hardly any carbs. The macro breakdown of the keto diet is 65-80% fat, 15-30% protein, and 5-10% carbs (max 30 grams). Your body burns glucose for energy. If there’s no glucose, your body burns fat for energy. No carbs = no glucose = less fat.
