Macadamia Nut Fat bombs are super low in carbs. At the start of a keto diet, fat bombs can actually be a shortcut to success if you are struggling to get your fat percentage high enough to balance out your macros!

As you can see, fat bombs are mostly fat. This recipe is the lowest carb version I've made due to the macadamia nut butter.

Macadamia nuts are very low in carbs and very good for our bodies!

Tips For Amazing Macadamia Nut Fat Bombs

Choose Quality Ingredients

We make and eat fat bombs on a keto diet to increase our fat percentage. It can be quite a challenge to get up to 80% fat, especially during the first phase. These fat bombs are mostly made of fat, so it follows that choosing a high quality base is important to get something that tastes good. Choose your ingredients wisely. For your convenience, there's a list of recommended ingredients towards the end of this post.

Heat Gently

When making fat bombs, heat your ingredients just enough to get the coconut oil to liquefy. Turn off your heat at this point and mix in the remaining ingredients.

Storage: Tight & Cool

Store your fat bombs in a tightly sealed container in a cool location. During the winter, fat bombs often sit out on our counter because we keep our home at a cool 66 degrees which is well below the melting temperature of Coconut Oil. However, in the warmer months we store these in the refrigerator. Keep them cool and in a tightly sealed container for optimum freshness and enjoyment ?

How To Choose Fat Bomb Molds

Choosing molds for your fat bombs is really fun. Look for silicone candy or chocolate molds that are approved to be used with heated material.

Think about the size of fat bomb you would like to end up with and purchase molds in that size. Some people like their fat bombs thinner, fatter, taller, wider. ? There's so many different shapes and sizes to choose from!

Avoid ice molds because they are generally made with plastics that are unsafe to heat.

If you don’t have silicone candy molds, and don't want to buy anything look around your kitchen for things you can use.

Mini cupcake pans are a popular mold for people just starting out. These can be a little challenging to remove fat bombs from, especially in the colder months. To remove, let the fat bombs sit for 10-15 minutes at room temp before you attempt to take them out of the stiffer molds.

Look at all these fun molds!

Here are some search terms to try:

  • chocolate silicon molds
  • candy making molds
  • wilton candy mold

Ingredients for Macadamia Nut Fat Bombs

Here's a few things to peek at….

Track Your Nutrition & Health Data with cronometer.com
  • Madagascar Pure Vanilla Extract
  • Pure Almond Extract
  • NuNaturals Vanilla Stevia or Sweetleaf Vanilla Stevia
  • Coconut Oil
  • Mini-Crockpot
    • These are inexpensive and very convenient. I really like using them for fat-bombs because of the gentle heat when melting ingredients and the ability to keep things warm when I’m making layered ‘fat bombs’.
    • You can use a small pan on your stove as well.Use your lowest heat setting and remove the pan from the heat as soon as your coconut oil has melted.

The molds I’m using are by “Chicago Metallic” but they are no longer available online. Here’s a few similar options:

  • Mighty Mold Assorted Shape Molds
  • Wilton 24-Cavity Heart Mold
  • Kovot Heart Shaped Silicone Molds
