Oh boy.
These peanut butter keto fat bombs are HEAVEN!
And I’m not even THAT into peanut butter.

Seriously, if you try these once you will question why you ever got sugar cravings anyway if you can have ketogenic treats like THIS.

I know that I say about all of my recipes that they’re super delicious (yadda yadda yadda), but this recipe blew my socks off.

I even decided to reduce the amount of the recipe because I think they’re too delicious: it’s quite easy to overeat on these little buddies.

So for the sake of your ketosis state – I think you shouldn’t have too many of those in your fridge if you struggle with binge eating or overeating (which I personally definitely do.)

Unfortunately, peanuts aren’t the most suitable nuts to have while on the ketogenic diet.
They’re safe to eat in moderation, but they have a higher carb count than other high-fat nuts like pecans, walnuts or macadamias.

That’s also why one of these peanut butter fat bombs adds a whopping 2.5g net carbs to your carb count.

Not that much if you can control yourself, but it can add up pretty quickly if you have as little self-control as I do.
(And yes, I did eat all of them in one sitting right after taking the final pictures – I’ll go & stand in the corner.)

So go ahead and make these amazingly delicious keto treats but make sure to only eat 1-2 a day to avoid kicking yourself out of ketosis!

    PEANUT BUTTER KETO FAT BOMBS INGREDIENTS:

    (You can find the exact amounts needed in the recipe card at the end of this post!

    Like mentioned above, I reduced the recipe to half of my original batch because I feel it’s quite easy to overeat on these little guys.
    But if you have more self-control than I do – go ahead and double the recipe for a yield of 8 fat bombs total.)

  • smooth sugar-free peanut butter: the only ingredients added should be peanuts, water and/ or salt.
    If there’s anything else, it could be sugar and we don’t want that!

    You will find a bit of sugar on the nutrition label even on peanut butter with no sugar added – but that’s the natural sugar from the peanuts.
    No way around that.

    But as soon as something else pops up, especially something you can’t pronounce, skip it.

    (Fun fact: Did you know sugar has over 50 names?
    A neat trick manufacturers like to use is to replace the name “sugar” with one or more of the 50 other synonyms to mislead customers.

  • almond flour: the almond flour will bring additional texture to the fat bombs and make sure they keep their shape more easily.
  • granulated erythritol:
    in my opinion, 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 it’s natural origin and natural production process (fermentation with a certain kind of yeast) I also consider erythritol to be paleo-friendly!

    Even though I’m a bit biased towards erythritol, you can use other granulated 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.
    Simply taste a tiny amount of the mass before oversweetening it and adjust accordingly.

  • sugar-free vanilla extract
  • sugar-free chocolate or chocolate with at least 85% cacoa content
  • Optional:

  • If you feel fancy and want to decorate your peanut butter fat bombs a bit more, drizzle a bit of melted peanut butter (or peanut mush) on the finished fat bombs and add a few chopped peanuts.

    HOW TO MAKE PEANUT BUTTER KETO FAT BOMBS:

     
    1. Mix the ingredients for the fat bomb mass:
    Mix all of the ingredients for the fat bomb mass (specified on the recipe card) and stir until you get a smooth mass.

    Place the mass in the freezer for approx. 10-15 minutes.

     
    2. Form the fat bombs:
    Take the fat bomb mass out of the freezer and scoop out 1/4 of the mass, respectively.
    Form small balls using your hands.

    Place the balls back in your freezer for 30 minutes.

     
    3. Melt the chocolate and pour over fat bombs:
    After the fat bombs have chilled in the freezer for approx 20 minutes, start to melt your sugar-free chocolate using a double boiler.

    After the remaining 10 minutes have passed, take the cold fat bombs out of the freezer and place them in the melted chocolate.
    Roll them in the chocolate until they’re fully covered.

    Use a fork to get them out of the chocolate – let excess chocolate drip off a bit before placing the chocolate-covered fat bombs on a piece of parchment paper.

    Place in your fridge and let the chocolate cool off completely before proceeding to the next step. (Takes about 10 minutes.)

     
    4. (Optional) Decorate with melted peanut butter & chopped peanuts:
    Drizzle the melted peanut butter (or peanut mush) over the hardened fat bombs.
    Add the chopped peanuts right after drizzling the fat bombs with the melted peanut butter.

     
    5. Serve:
    Let the finished fat bombs chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour before enjoying them.

    You can store the fat bombs covered with plastic wrap in your fridge for approx. 2-3 days.

     
    Nutrition Info:
    One peanut butter fat bomb has 2.5g net carbs (3.2g total carbs and 0.7g dietary fiber), 10.1g fat, 4g protein, and 122 calories.

    (I try to be as accurate as possible with this information, but values may vary because of natural occurring fluctuations and different products used.)

    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.
