These marbled keto vanilla & chocolate fat bombs are a true eyecatcher – but they don’t only look great, they taste great as well!
But that’s not all, they’re also easy to make and super low carb with only 0.4g net carbs per fat bomb.

MARBLED KETO CHOCOLATE & VANILLA FAT BOMBS INGREDIENTS:
This section is where I share a few suggestions and explanations for the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe.
(You can find the exact amounts needed on the recipe card embedded below this section).
The right almond flour can make or break a recipe, especially when it comes to baking.
That’s why I highly recommend using defatted almond flour.
It’s very different from most other kinds of almond flours out there as it has most of its natural fat content removed and thus behaves very differently compared to other kinds of almond flour and is much better suited for most keto baking recipes.
Most brands simply sell finely ground almond meal as almond flour, which can be fine for some recipes and is cheaper, but it has more calories (by a lot) and is not the best fit for most keto baking recipes.
It has more fat and can cause recipe failures because of this, like melted cookies.
Defatted almond flour like this one from Sukrin, is much lower in calories, has a naturally high protein content and – most importantly – is the best replacement for wheat flour I’ve ever come across (and I’ve tried a lot).
Why erythritol?
In my opinion, erythritol is the best keto-friendly sweetener.
– it doesn’t spike your blood sugar,
– it’s completely safe and
– has a very fresh & natural sweet taste.
Because of its natural origin and natural production process (fermentation), I also consider erythritol to be paleo-friendly.
You can use other keto-friendly sweeteners that won’t spike your blood sugar as well, but be aware that you may have to add more or less sweetener if you do so.
Erythritol is about 70% as sweet as sugar whereas other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit and stevia are much sweeter than sugar.
Keep that ratio in mind when using a 1:1 sugar replacement.
You can also use a vanilla bean in exchange.
1 tsp = 1/2 bean
I really like using dutch processed cacao powder for all of my keto baking experiments because it has a super strong chocolate taste and thus you only need a small amount to make keto chocolate treats.
But you can also use other kinds of unsweetened cacao powder.
HOW TO MAKE THE MARBLED KETO CHOCOLATE & VANILLA FAT BOMBS:
Add all of the ingredients for the chocolate fat bomb mass into a middle-sized bowl and mix well, until you get a smooth mass.
Add the ingredients for the vanilla fat bomb mass into a separate bowl and mix again, until you get a smooth mass.
Scoop out about double the amount of the vanilla fat bomb mass compared to the chocolate fat bomb mass.
Add small chunks of the chocolate mass throughout the vanilla mass, to create nice patterns at the end.
Form about 12 bite-sized balls (approx. 1"/2.5cm) by rolling the fat bomb mass in your hands.
Let the finished fat bombs chill in your fridge for at least half an hour before you enjoy them.
Cover your low carb marbled vanilla & chocolate fat bombs with plastic wrap or store them in an air-tight container in your fridge for up to 5 days.

Q: How do you include Erythritol in your calculations?
A: The short answer is: I don’t, and I can tell you why.
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol which your body can’t digest.
If you ingest it, it won’t spike your blood sugar & it won’t release insulin (which is a good thing if you want to stay in ketosis).
It passes through our system basically “untouched”.
Because of this, you can subtract the carbs from erythritol completely, which is what I always do.
(I try to be as accurate as possible with this information, but values may vary because of natural occurring fluctuations and different products used.)
