Ingredients
  • 1 cup Coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tbsp Erythritol or sweetener of choice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp Optional: Unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp Optional: Keto-friendly chocolate chips

Step 1: Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, erythritol or sweetener, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the sweetener is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Step 2: Add Optional Ingredients

If desired, add unsweetened shredded coconut and keto-friendly chocolate chips to the mixture. Stir until evenly distributed.

Step 3: Pour into Molds or Tray

Pour the mixture into silicone molds (such as mini muffin molds) or spread it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. If using a baking sheet, make sure it is evenly distributed, around 1/2 inch thick.

Step 4: Freeze Until Solid

Place the molds or baking sheet in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until the fat bombs are completely solid.

Step 5: Store and Serve

Once solid, remove the fat bombs from the molds or cut the sheet into individual servings. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.

FAQ

  • Can I use a different type of oil?

    While coconut oil is preferred due to its health benefits and solidifying properties at cold temperatures, you can experiment with MCT oil. However, MCT oil may not solidify as firmly, resulting in a softer fat bomb.
  • How do I store these fat bombs?

    Store the fat bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain their shape and freshness. They are best consumed cold.
