These Chocolate Coconut Almond Fat Bombs are about the fourth fat bomb recipe that I have made. Fat bombs have become a staple in my house.
When you are eating a low-carb high-fat diet or keto diet, fat bombs are a great way to get healthy fats into your diet, like avocado and coconut oil. They also satisfy your hunger.
Even if you aren't on a keto diet, fat bombs make a great sugar-free snack. I am actually taking a break from eating a keto vegan diet, but I will still be posting low-carb recipes.
You can see a bunch of my Keto Vegan Recipes in a round-up, or see all of them in my Vegan Keto category page.
These sweet chocolaty treats are crunchy with cacao nibs, coconut flakes, and sliced almonds. Sometimes I like to eat them with a dab of peanut or almond butter on top to add a savory touch.
These are not too sweet, but more like dark chocolate. I used stevia to sweeten them, which has become a staple in my house.
Other recipes to try are my Coconut Oil Fat Bombs, Vegan Almond Flour Cookies, Vegan Keto Almond Flour Fat Bombs recipe, and Vegan Sugar Free Fudge.

🔪 Instructions
Step 1: Melt coconut butter (see below for the best way).

How to Melt Coconut Butter
- Melt coconut butter by placing the jar in a saucepan filled with water over medium heat. Occasionally pull the jar out with oven mitts and stir it. If it's hard to stir, stick it back in the simmering water until it's ready.
- Do NOT put the coconut butter in the microwave. It will cook unevenly and burn.
- When it's easy to stir, spoon it into a measuring cup to measure out the amount you need.
💭 Tips
- The coconut oil CAN be heated in the microwave if it's solid, but the coconut butter will cook unevenly and burn.
- Freeze the fat bombs and store them in the fridge or freezer.

Skipper Carmen says
Could you tell us the carb content? Please!
Willow Moon says
1 gram net carb as per my notes in the comments above.
Marlene says
What can be used instead of coconut butter. I love coconut and want to try these
Willow Moon says
If you love coconut, than you will probably like coconut butter, but if you really want a substitute than possibly a nut butter would work. I have only made these with the ingredients listed, so I don't know how they will come out with anything else.
Laura says
Yumm, need to try these!
Lora says
Cocoa butter only 1/2. 1/2 of what?
Willow Moon says
1/2 cup. Thanks Lora for catching that. I swear I read through these many times before publishing, but I think I added the Amazon link after I published, and it erased the "cup". No one has said anything even though I get tons of pageviews from this recipe! Thanks!
Michelle says
One question...what is the fat and carb count per serving? I'm a real stickler on my keto lifestyle. Thanks in advance!
Michelle says
Disregard my question as I see you already answered it in an earlier post. I will definitely be adding these treats to our keto menu!
Sara says
Just made these! They're in the fridge now!! Do you know the nutrition facts for this? Or have any estimates? Just curious about the carbs for my keto diet.
Willow Moon says
Hi Sara! Per serving I have 80 calories, 7.76 grams of fat, 1 gram net carb, and 0.66 grams of protein. But I always like to tell people to also check it out for yourself because a.) I could have made a mistake, and b.) different companies can have different nutritional info. Which I found to be true with two different brands of coconut flakes. Anyway, it gives you a starting point. Hope that helps! Cheers!
