Chocolate Walnut Fat Bombs (Keto Recipe)
Calories 50kcal
Ingredients
- 100 grams dark chocolate
- 55 grams coconut oil
- 50 grams walnut pieces (small)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 8 drops stevia
Instructions
- Melt chocolate and coconut oil.
- You can do this in a water bath like the pros do it, in a coated pot on the stove (gentle heat! ) or in the microwave.
- If you can get hold of sugar free chocolate such as Lily's in the USA, go for it.
- I used 90% Lindt, but I have come across unsweetened (100% cocoa solids) chocolate as well, here in the UK there is a brand called Montezuma, for example.
- If you use unsweetened chocolate, adjust the amount of sweetener accordingly.
- Crush your walnuts - I used a food processor - until you have small pieces.
- Keep a few larger ones to decorate the fat bombs.
- Add the crushed walnuts, cinnamon and stevia to the melted chocolate/coconut oil mix.
- Pour into silicone moulds or ice cube tray and freeze for ca 5 minutes until the tops are just set.
- Remove from freezer and press the larger walnut pieces on top.
- Place in the fridge for another 20 minutes or so until the fat bombs have set.
- Recipe Notes My mix made 30 fat bombs, which weighed between 5 and 8 grams because I used 2 different-sized moulds.
- If you do not have moulds, you could also line a small tray with baking paper and pour the fat bomb mix in it.
- After it's firmed up you can either cut or break it into small pieces.
- Chocolate walnut fat bombs are best kept in the fridge.
- They stay firm at room temperature, but do melt in your hand when you pick them up.
- You can use any kind of nuts in place of the walnuts, or even a mix of nuts and seeds.
- I used caramel-flavoured stevia.
- I imagine a vanilla-flavoured one would be good in this recipe, too.
- Try to use high-quality ingredients, such as extra virgin coconut oil and a good quality chocolate.
- It'll make all the difference.
