Until I understood what a fat bomb actually was the whole concept sounded really strange to me. If was trying to lose weight why would I add more fat to my diet?

For a girl who grew up hearing that all fats should be shunned it didn’t make real sense to me.

What Are Fat Bombs

If you are wondering what are fat bombs for keto and asking yourself do fat bombs help you lose weight? 

Basically, it’s just a sweet or savory little snack made from healthy fats. It’s a popular treat among people who do low carb, keto, and paleo diets.

But it’s also a great hack for losing weight. In the low-carb keto community, fat bombs are used to naturally raise ketone levels with the goal to control their appetites and cravings.

The key to a great fat bomb is that it’s the perfect combination of healthy high fat and low carb ingredients.

Fat bombs can make eating a low-carb keto plan sustainable. AND…In my world that’s a good excuse to come up with another fat bomb recipe for you to enjoy.

Why Consider Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Bombs

Why should you even consider adding fat bombs to your diet? Here’s the thing, in a low-carb keto plan you use fat as fuel instead of glucose, and sugar.

By adding more healthy fats into your diet and reducing your carbs you naturally raise your ketone levels. A treat like these fat bombs can assist you on your keto diet.

Making sure your healthy fat ratio is higher, helps you be satiated longer. Fat bombs can give you a boost of energy and give your brain the healthy fats it craves.

Your Brain Needs Healthy Fats

Keto fat bombs are great for people doing keto. Most people don’t realize that a ketogenic diet can offer more than just weight management benefits. In fact, being in ketosis has neuroprotective properties too.

This is why you shouldn’t ignore essential fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6, both of which are crucial for brain health and function.

Do you know that most of our brain tissue is made up of fatty acids? This is why it only makes sense to include more recipes like my keto chocolate fat bombs.

Simply put fat bombs can help increase the overall health of our brains by giving them the fats it craves.

How To Add Fat Bombs To Your Diet

Now a bit of caution is in order here. You see adding fat bombs only makes sense if you have reduced your carbs and are doing the low carb keto lifestyle.

If you decide to make fat bombs part of your regular diet without making adjustments, you may just end up gaining weight.

This is because you can’t load up on carbs and expect the extra fat from fat bombs not to be stored.

In order to gain the benefits of fat bombs, you should include them as part of a well-balanced low-carb keto diet. What’s more, you should try to limit them to only once a day as a snack or light meal.

Chocolate and Peanut Butter A Perfect Match

I made these last weekend and I'm heating up another batch now. They taste exactly like Reese's peanut butter cups to me. The only thing I don't like is that they melt really fast at room temp. Thanks so much for the great recipe!

Hi Karen, So thrilled to hear you are enjoying these fat bombs. Unfortunately, the use of coconut oil, which is essential to the recipe means that it must be refrigerated. I personally, keep mine in the freezer.

As everyone else has stated; these are soooo good and easy! I chop up pecans and fill my molds about halfway up with them before pouring my mixture into the molds. I love them both ways, but kinda like the crunch of the pecans better. Definitely my go to snack; the only way I can stay on keto is to have chocolate every day!!
