Is there an alternative to the protein powder for flavour?
Cass says
You could add cocoa, coconut flakes, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, or flavored stevia.
Wendy says
Could you use coconut oil powder instead of MCT powder?
Cass says
Yeah that should work fine.
Delilah says
These are great!!!!! I made 2 batches with isopure cookies and cream and the Dutch chocolate. These are by far the best tasting and best consistency-wise fatbombs I’ve made. Thanks keto connect!
Robert says
I tried this and used caraway to cover the egg taste made a nice rye flavored bread. Also used 2 tablespoons sour cream in a second batch to make english muffins! Both were excellent!
G L says
Can you convert all the grams please? I’m a measurer!
G L Page says
Does this only make 1 bomb???
Olivia Kendrick says
The ingredients are for one fat bomb, but you can multiply them by however many you plan to make.
melynie says
Made these and they taste great! I used the vega salted caramel protein powder and everything came out perfectly. Thanks for anoither amazing recipe.
Amy says
Would you consider this comparable to the Keto Brick in macros? The ingredients seem very similar.
Luisa Martinez says
could you substitute mtc oil instead of the mtc oil powder?
Sarah says
I know this is over a year later – but no. If you added a liquid (the oil) instead of a powder, you’d change the ratios of wet to dry and it would not turn out the same – it would be too wet. Plus the addition of oil would likely prevent the fat bomb from setting up properly; it might never solidify at all.
Deborah says
How many fat bombs does this make for the nutrition facts?
Also, how do I convert grams into ounces or teaspoons?
Olivia Kendrick says
1 ounce is 28 grams. The recipe & nutrition info is for 1 fat bomb. If you know how many you will make, multiply all the ingredients by that number 🙂
Claire says
Why don’t you have American measurements
Marilee Lonsberg says
What is the difference between cocoa,cacao and cocao? Also can you use paper cupcake cups instead of silicone?
Cass says
There isn’t really a difference in flavor. Both are great. And yes paper cups are good too.
Tim says
Cocoa is processed and should be used in baked goods, as it’s less expensive.
Cacao is minimally processed for nutritional value and is best used without baking. It’s more expensive and heat will negate the positive benefits.
Cocao… not sure.
Courtney says
Hi! Where do you get your molds for these? I have been looking for a “Reese’s” type mold, but everything I find is too small or too big (for tarts). Thank you!
Olivia Kendrick says
You can get little silicone cup molds, but I like using mini cupcake parchment paper liners with a mini cupcake pan. Nothing sticks to the liners and then you can just throw them away 🙂
Ivory says
I don’t usvf MCT powder can I use the oil instead? If so how much?
I’m okay if the oil doesn’t make it shel stable, I can keep in the fridge.
Thanks
Olivia Kendrick says
Yes, that should be fine for fridge storage. If you use the same amount of fat, you could use 1.5 teaspoons of oil. Coconut oil or butter would also work to replace MCT oil powder.
Elvir says
Hello,
Could I replace cocoa butter with regular butter? And is there a substitute for MCT Oil Powder that I can use.
Thank you, you guys rock!!!!
Olivia Kendrick says
You could use butter powder instead of MCT oil powder but you will need some sort of powdered fat source as it helps increase fat and keep it shelf stable by not adding other liquids. For the cocoa butter, you cannot sub butter, as butter is soft at room temperature and you will not be able to keep them at room temp or travel with them without melting. If you are just going to be storing in the fridge, you can replace with butter instead, as the shelf stable factor will not matter then.
Nicole says
Hi! Is there any way to make these shelf stable bombs using chocolate that isn’t cacao butter?
Laura says
I’ve always used coconut oil and cacao powder for shelf-stable fat bombs. It’s never failed. 1/2-2/3 cup coconut oil, and about 1/4-1/3 cup cacao powder with some stevia drops. It’s how I make all my keto nut-butter cups 🙂
Ronalyn Hurley says
Thanks to all for your replies. It makes sense now.
Betty says
Could you just melt all the ingredients together and pour into smaller molds? That seems easier.
Olivia Kendrick says
For sure!
Elvir says
Hello,
I been following your page and everything you guys been doing. Have made some of the recipes and they are great. Thank you and you guys rock.
Quick question could I substitute something else for MCT Oil Powder, and could I use regular butter instead of cocoa butter.
Olivia Kendrick says
No, unfortunately if you use another liquid in this recipe, it will mess with the shelf stableness of the fat bombs. If you are storing in the fridge and aren’t worried about portability of these fat bombs without melting, you can use coconut oil or butter instead of MCT oil powder. Again, if you need them to be portable, you will need to use cocao butter, but if you are just storing in the fridge, you can use oil or butter. Cocao butter does have a great taste though!
Ronalyn Hurley says
If they are shelf stable, why do you have to freeze?
Sascha Lenz says
Just a way to make them eatable faster as well as hardening them because the cocoa butter will actually get harder when cooled quickly. You could go ahead and wait a long time for them to harden at room temperature as well.
Tracey says
Hi Ronalyn,
I think initially you have to so they will take on the shape of the mold, plus the cacao butter needs to solidify….he also said that over 85 degrees and will melt, living in FL, I would have to freeze them as its typically above that here.
Olivia Kendrick says
They need to cool in order to harden, so the quickest way to cool them is to freeze. They will not melt at room temp. If you want to cool them at room temperature, it will just take longer.
