Keto fat bombs are a tasty way to satisfy your sweet tooth on the keto diet, and they can be so easy to make! This recipe for Chocolate Fat Bombs uses avocado to make a truffle-like treat in under 10 minutes.
This recipe for Chocolate Avocado Keto Fat Bombs is easy and foolproof, assuming you can pick a ripe avocado and use it in the small window before it turns brown. Even if it does turn brown, you're combining it with chocolate so no one will ever know! Except for you. You will know. And you'll have to live with that forever. Either way, the recipe doesn’t involve any cooking, so you don’t have to worry about burning down your kitchen.
– Use a fork to mash avocado and coconut oil in a bowl until the two are fully combined. Add the remaining ingredients – cocoa powder, honey (or liquid stevia if you’re following the keto diet), vanilla extract, and cinnamon and mix until combined. – Place the mixture in the fridge for 10 minutes to harden, then roll into 1” balls. Or, if you like bigger balls, go crazy and bump that up to 3 inches.
– To give them that pretentious sophisticated truffle look, roll the chocolate avocado balls in cocoa powder, then place them in a mesh strainer and shake off the excess. Because they’re nothing worse than going in for a bite of chocolaty goodness, only to be suffocated with chocolate ball dust, à la the cinnamon challenge.
– Store these bad boys the fridge until ready to enjoy for dessert, an afternoon snack, or until you forget about them like you did with that bag of wilted spinach you should have thrown away three weeks ago. – One very important note: This fat bomb recipe uses honey. If you’re sticking to the keto diet, you’ll want to use liquid stevia.
The keto diet might seem like the longest running April Fool’s Joke out there. How healthy can it be to eat a diet centered around fat, and how could anyone possibly survive on a mere 30 grams of carbs a day, AKA the amount of carbs in one measly apple? An apple a day might keep the doctor away, but an apple and a donut and a burger will keep my limited sanity in check.
