I’ve never liked the taste of traditional Peanut Butter Fat Bombs, so I made my own version of them which taste way better. You don’t feel like you’re hauling down a whole bunch of coconut oil, and they are super easy to make.
Fat bombs are a delicious way to increase the healthy fats in your diet, especially when following a ketogenic diet, and can be a really useful way to get an extra bit of energy, or snack on something healthy.
Keto Friendly Peanut Butter
To make these, you’ll need to find a keto friendly peanut butter. There is only one rule when it comes to buying peanut butter, and its this:
Does it contain anything other than peanuts and salt?
If not, look for a 100% natural peanut butter.
There are plenty of peanut butter brands that are available here in Coles and Woolworths (Australia) that don’t contain sugar, just make sure you read the labels.
Keto Energy Balls Recipe
These keto energy balls are a delicious treat and don’t become a messy heap of melted oil if left out of the fridge for too long. This is why I coat them in desiccated coconut and incorporate a little heavy cream into the mixture. It gives it more body and alleviates some of the sticky taste of peanut butter.
If you’re a big fan of peanut butter, then you’ll probably also love my keto peanut butter cups recipe, which is coated in chocolate with a salty peanut butter inside. Its so delicious, and your friends won’t even know its keto!
You could substitute the heavy cream for cream cheese in these keto energy balls, making a delicious low carb peanut butter balls with cream cheese style recipe. They might even taste better, who knows!
I hope you enjoy this recipe, until next time!

Thank you for your recipe it was delicious, I would like to know the weight of your fat bombs . Thank you
Can you use Monk Fruit as the sweetener?
sure can
Deliciousness! I made these using coconut flour and swerve (brown sugar) and I left off the coconuts. Instead, I rolled mine in a bit of cinnamon and cayanne mixed together. So good!! I can’t wait until they’re chilled. Thank you for sharing this recipe. ?
Hi , First I want to thank you for including the metric measurements, One small tweak though, no body in the metric world uses ml for dry weights,[ flour etc] it is always grams thanks. can’t wait to try the peanut butter bombs.
I have to translate my grams to ml when baking many things like homemade bread! Some ppl. Use ml.
What is this measurement?
’59 5/34 ml’ Almond Flour
Can cashew flour be used in place of almond flour ?
Sure!
Can you use cashew flour in your bomb recipes instead of almond flour ??
I do not get how you come up with only 1g total carb with these. When I figure it out it comes up with 6.5g.
You need to exclude sugar alcohols.
What is this measurement?
’59 5/34 ml’ Almond Flour
What are the macros? I cant find them.
Do you stick these in the fridge or do you put them in the freezer?
Either is fine 🙂
Finally. Someone that understands how to fix a MAJOR problem. Via taste AND adding “Nutritional Values”… Ty!
I LOVE your website! Thanks for making a difference in our lives!
Thank you so much Debby!
Mam oh man! These taste like peanut butter cookie dough! I think next time I’ll chop the coconut just a little and toast it slightly before rolling the treats in it. Even so, thanks for a heavenly bite!
Thanks Mary!
I added a few Lily’s dark chocolate chips to this recipe and it was a yummy addition!
Hi Aaron! Thank you so much for all of the me to recipes. I am loving them! Kelp them coming.
Hi,I’ve been making fathoms for a couple of weeks,but didn’t really know if I was doing the right thing by adding unsweetened cranberries,and or unpitted prunes both with walnuts blended n mixed with cocoa ,coconut oil peanut butter n a little stevia.rolled in desiccated coconut ,are the fruit ok to use if trying to loose weight?
stay away from dried fruits, as well, look into berries that may be ok if your trying to lose weight- look for keto do’s and don’t= explore how much nutritional fats and healthy food that will sustain you- key- reprogramming your body and mind for cravings for sugar- keep the insulin down- Best
