Keto White Chocolate Butter Pecan Fat Bombs – Low Carb Recipe

Two flavors, one keto fat bomb.

Yes, you read that right, white chocolate on a low carb diet!

After a recent purchase of cocoa butter, I was itching to play with it. It smelled amazing! But tasting it right out of the bag (it came delivered in block form in a plastic baggy) reminded me of tasteless wax. I was a little skeptical and wondered how much sweetener I’d have to add for it to taste like the low carb white chocolate I’d been reading it would. Turns out, not much! A little bit of erythritol is all it takes! After playing around with a basic recipe for low carb “white chocolate” I decided to mix in some flavors and make some fat bombs out of this new ingredient. Enter butter pecan. Who knew this ice cream flavor was so keto-friendly? Minus the sugary ice cream, of course.

Fat bombs are popular in the keto community and are handy boosts of fat. They’re usually sweet mixes of coconut oil, cream cheese, butter, sweetener and/or cocoa. Savory ones do exist though! Fat bombs are used throughout the day (if you’re busy and didn’t have time for lunch) and deliver the fat you may be missing. They are usually very high in fat (80-90% fat) with some protein and very little carbs. You can easily make some fat bombs using just coconut oil, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and sweetener by melting them all together and freezing in ice cube trays or cupcake molds, or you can get a little fancier with Coconut Butter Cups! The varieties are endless and they’re fun to eat!

This variation is a little more complex, but the flavor you get is out of this world! I like to enjoy 1 or 2 with tea at the end of my day and they are an amazing treat. One key to this recipe is to use powdered erythritol which melts easily into the cocoa butter. If you only have granular erythritol on hand, you can still make it work but the fat bombs may have a slightly grainy texture. While I’m obsessed with the butter pecan flavor of these fat bombs, you can definitely use a different kind of nut to make the recipe a little differently. Chopped almonds or walnuts will both work wonderfully. Hazelnuts are another decadent option. No matter what kind of nut you choose, you are going to love these fat bombs especially if you have been craving white chocolate yet trying to stick to your keto diet. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Servings4 fat bombs

Prep Time15 minutes

Cook Time5 minutes

Ingredients

2tbsp coconut oil

2tbsp butter

2oz cocoa butter

2tbsp So Nourished powdered erythritol sweetener

1/4tsp vanilla extract

1pinch Stevia

1pinch salt

1/2cup chopped pecans

Instructions

Melt coconut oil, cocoa butter and butter together in a small pan until melted. Then turn the heat off.

If you don't have powdered erythritol, you can easily make it. Place erythritol in a NutriBullet or small blender and pulse until powdery! Stir in 2 tablespoons of it into the butter mixture until combined.

Add a pinch of salt to bring out the sweetness.

Add in an optional pinch of Stevia. Some people say it counteracts the cooling effects of erythritol.

Add in vanilla extract.

Into some silicone cupcake molds or candy molds, add a few chopped pecans. I added about 3-4 pecans total to each mold, but this can be altered. If you don't have pecans, walnuts and hazelnuts work well with white chocolate too!

Pour your white chocolate mix evenly into the molds over the nuts and place in freezer immediately.

Freeze for about 30 minutes. You want them to be nice and cool when eating as they melt easily.

Enjoy!
