WHAT IS A FAT BOMB?
For someone living a low-carb lifestyle, fat bombs are essential energy. Your body becomes adjusted to burning fat versus carbohydrates, so these little balls of goodness are great for times when you are feeling sluggish or hungry between meals.
Fat bombs are usually made with a high-fat base along with a binding agent and flavors you enjoy. They can be sweet or savory.
The nutritional values of fat bombs will obviously vary depending on the ingredients included. Fat, of course, is the main source of energy. A typical fat bomb will give you anywhere from 7 to 50 grams of fat.
Fat bombs are for those following a keto diet and are fat-adapted, as they keep the body energized and full. However, if you're not on a low carb, fat bombs can make you gain weight since your body will likely store all that fat found in these snacks rather than burn it.
Fat bombs are a great pre or post-workout snack as well.
I love sweet and savory fat bombs so when I started getting requests for some fat bomb recipes I was having a hard time deciding what to go with. Ultimately I decided that you really can't go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter.
If you have any flavors you would like to see recipes for don't hesitate to let me know and I will get them on the blog for you!

Substitutions
- Peanut Butter - if you have an allergy you can use any other nut butter or seed butter.
- Dairy - I have not personally tried this with dairy-free ingredients but I would assume that it would work just as well.
🍽Equipment
The only special equipment that I use in this recipe is my cookie scoops. I have this set of three scoops and I love them. A cookie scoop makes this recipe much faster and easier.
Storage
Store your fat bombs in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
FAQ about Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake Fat Bombs
I used the Besti Monk fruit and Allulose sweetener, which is my go-to keto sweetener. You can replace sugar 1:1 with it. But you can of course use whatever sweetener you prefer, just know that this recipe was created using Besti.
Absolutely, just make sure it is a no sugar added nut butter. Also, the nutritional info listed is for peanut butter so you would need to adjust that as well.
