Description
A quick, no-bake keto dessert made with natural peanut butter and sugar-free chocolate chips. These fat bombs are ready in 5 minutes of prep time and provide a satisfying, low-carb sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (250g) natural peanut butter (unsweetened, stirred smooth)
- 1 cup (170g) sugar-free chocolate chips (sweetened with erythritol, stevia, or allulose)
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) coconut oil (refined or unrefined)
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Optional: Crushed keto-friendly nuts, protein powder, or sea salt flakes for topping
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place silicone molds on top for stability.
- Combine the natural peanut butter, sugar-free chocolate chips, and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir vigorously. Microwave for another 15-20 seconds and stir again until the mixture is smooth, glossy, and lump-free.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt. If the mixture is too thick, add a teaspoon of coconut oil; if too thin, add more chocolate chips.
- Spoon or pipe the mixture into the silicone molds, filling them almost to the top. Alternatively, scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto parchment paper and roll into balls.
- Place the molds or baking sheet in the freezer for 15-20 minutes until the fat bombs are firm to the touch.
- Pop the fat bombs out of the molds and store in an airtight container in the freezer.
- Enjoy straight from the freezer for a chewy texture, or from the fridge for a firmer candy-bar consistency.
Notes
Ensure natural peanut butter is stirred well before measuring to avoid separation issues. Do not overheat the chocolate mixture as it can seize up. For best texture, store in the freezer. If using almond butter, you may need slightly more coconut oil as it is drier than peanut butter.
