I am convinced that coffee makes the world a better place.
I really mean it — when I drink coffee, the world really does feel like a better place. I feel happier, problems feel smaller, and nothing feels impossible. Considering the fact that 2.25 billion cups of coffee are consumed DAILY across the world, I think I am in good company.
You know what also makes the world a better place? Chocolate. And when you combine coffee + chocolate… that’s total bliss, right? And heck, let’s make it keto-friendly too while we’re making the world’s best combination.
This recipe is going to give you just that. Coffee + chocolate + keto-friendly = Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs. Oh, and these aren’t just coffee-flavored fat bombs. They’re actually caffeinated fat bombs. 🙌
These sweet little bites of heaven will give you a healthy dose of fats (9g fat per fat bomb) with only 1g net carbs each. They’re perfect for those moments when you want a yummy, chocolatey, filling pick-me-up!
Ingredients Used in Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs
Nature’s Eats Pecan Halves
NOW Better Organic Stevia Sweetener
My favorite brand of stevia – organic, no fillers, and doesn’t have that bitter aftertaste that a lot of brands of stevia do.
NuNaturals Dutch Process Organic Cocoa Powder
This cocoa powder is amazing! It has an intense chocolate flavor without the natural bitterness found in traditional cocoa powder.
Dr. Bronner’s White Kernel Virgin Coconut Oil
A really fresh and flavorful coconut oil!
Other ingredients:
- Instant coffee granules (I used the Kroger store brand, which I find has more kick to it than even Folgers, Maxwell House, or Taster’s Choice instant coffee!)
How to Make Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs
These fat bombs are super easy to make. You’ll combine all ingredients except the coconut oil in a food processor…
… give them a few quick pulses, then add the coconut oil.
After that, pulse your food processor for 1 ½ – 2 minutes, scraping down the sides every 30 seconds, until you get a mixture that you can form into balls. (If your mixture is too sticky and doesn’t hold together well enough, you can quickly pulse in 1-2 tbsp almond flour.)
The best method I found for rolling these into balls was to kind of squish the mixture between the palms of my hands a few times and then roll it into a ball. If you want to make these fat bombs extra-special, see my “How to Make Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs Even Better” section below for coating ideas!
You’ll get 20 fat bombs out of this recipe, which should go onto a plate and into the fridge for at least 45 minutes. They don’t really firm up (they’re soft, melt-in-your-mouth fat bombs… yum!), but the time in the fridge helps the flavors incorporate.
(Note: I wish you could have been there to smell the room when I had all of those coffee beans all over the table. Amazing!)
Store them in the fridge and enjoy!
[convertkit]Caffeine Content in Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs
This recipe uses 2 tbsp (8g) instant coffee granules. According to the USDA, there is 57 mg of caffeine per 1.8g instant coffee. That means the entire recipe contains 254 mg caffeine or 12.7 mg caffeine per fat bomb. It’s not enough caffeine to make you feel like you’re on top of the world (like you will if you drink Keto Crack Coffee), but it’s it’s a nice pick-me-up!
How to Make Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs Even Better
If you want to take these fat bombs to the next level, you can roll them in your coating of choice. Here are three of the best choices:
- Roll them in Perfect Keto Chocolate MCT Oil Powder. This stuff is ridiculously good, plus using it will provide your body with valuable MCTs. Use coupon code FORGETSUGARFRIDAY for 15% off!
- Roll them in Swerve Confectioners. Swerve is a sugar alcohol, so it contains no net carbs. The confectioners version measures 1:1 like powdered sugar, and anything tastes better when rolled in powdered sugar. 🙂
- Roll them in a mixture of Swerve Confectioners and cocoa powder. Mix Swerve Confectioners and cocoa powder to your desired flavor, then roll away.

Keto Chocolate Coffee Fat Bombs
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 c pecans
- 2 tbsp instant coffee granules
- 2 1/2 tbsp Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp stevia
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Into food processor bowl, add all ingredients except coconut oil. Pulse ten times to incorporate everything, then add coconut oil.
- Pulse mixture for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides every 30 seconds, until the mixture starts to have the ability to stick together. Be careful not to process it to the point of being nut butter!
- Roll into 20 fat bombs (approximately 1 tbsp of the mixture per fat bomb). To form them, you’ll need to squish together the mixture a few times in your hands to get it to stick together, then roll it into a ball shape. (Note: If your mixture is too sticky and doesn’t hold together well enough, quickly pulse in 1-2 tbsp almond flour.)
- Optionally, roll the fat bombs in a coating (see recipe notes for ideas).
- Place fat bombs on a plate and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes. These are soft fat bombs, so they won’t really firm up; chilling them just gives time for the flavors to incorporate. Store them in the fridge.
Notes
- Roll them in Perfect Keto Chocolate MCT Oil Powder. This stuff is ridiculously good, plus using it will provide your body with valuable MCTs. Use coupon code FORGETSUGARFRIDAY for 15% off!
- Roll them in Swerve Confectioners. Swerve is a sugar alcohol, so it contains no net carbs. The confectioners version measures 1:1 like powdered sugar, and anything tastes better when rolled in powdered sugar. 🙂
- Roll them in a mixture of Swerve Confectioners and cocoa powder. Mix Swerve Confectioners and cocoa powder to your desired flavor, then roll away.

Your site is totally wonderful, thank you for your creativity and energy for the Keto world!!!!!
Thank you so much, Pat! Your comment made my day. 🙂 Thanks for reading!
Does the coconut oil add a coconut taste?
Hi Pat,
I didn’t notice a coconut taste from the coconut oil, but to be safe, you can use refined coconut oil which is odorless and flavorless. Enjoy! 🙂
I have an allergy to coconut is there something else I can use?
You sure can! You can replace the coconut oil with your nut butter of choice.
Just wondering why add the pecans? With diverticulitis I’m supposed to stay away from nuts and I would rather skip this if possible. Do I need to add something else or can I just omit the pecans?
Hi Ruth! I used pecans because they are a keto-friendly nut (low in net carbs). Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to make a nut-free version of this recipe. Are you able to eat coconut oil? If so, there are a few fat bombs listed here that use coconut oil as the base: https://forgetsugarfriday.com/33-keto-fat-bombs/
Can you use strong brewed coffee?
Hi Kristin! You’ll need to use instant coffee granules in these, not liquid coffee, to infuse enough coffee flavor (and caffeine).
These don’t hold together at all. No way you can roll them in anything! Plan on eating these with a spoon.
Hi MB! I’m so sorry to hear that. Did you follow my suggestion to pulse in 1-2 tbsp of almond flour if the mixture doesn’t hold together well enough? I’ve made them three times and had to follow that step once. On the plus side, the mixture will still taste great if eaten off a spoon. 🙂
Jessica, I had the same issue as MB. We ate it with spoons like pudding. Problem is, my husband ate his entire bowl of this. He went way over his carb allowance for the day.
What is c in 2 1/2 c pecans.
Hi TC! C = cups.
hi can someone tell me if oi; has to be liquid form or not
Hi Sandra! You can add the coconut oil in solid or liquid form; it won’t impact the recipe either way.
Would these work with hazel nuts? I have a couple pounds I need to use up.
Hi Sarah, Absolutely! Great idea.
Can these be frozen?
Hi Gayla, Yes they can! I’ve frozen them for several months at a time.
Wonderful!
Made these with 3tbsp of Erythritol, instant espresso coffee and Cacao Powder.
Came out Amazingly Yummy.
Thank you
Gayla
Hi Gayla, Thank you so much for your kind review! Glad to hear you loved them! 🙂
Love your site and content.
Can I substitute almond oil for coconut oil ?
Hi Esti, Thank you so much! Yes, you can use almond oil. Enjoy! 🙂
Can you use another nut such as almonds?
Hi Lyn! I haven’t tried it with almonds, but I think it should work. Since almonds are a bit firmer than pecans, you may have to process them longer in step 2.
I like to use Whole Earth sweetener. Any idea how much to use in place of the stevia powder? The conversion on Whole Earth is 1 tsp Whole Earth = 2 Tsp sugar.
Thank you!
Hi Pamela! Try 1 tbsp Whole Earth and see how you like the flavor. Add up to another 2 tbsp if needed.
Enjoy!
The first time I made these, I followed the directions and used pecans. They were wonderful. Second time I made them I used almonds. A hint from me- don’t use almonds lol.
Hi C, thank you so much for your review! I agree – I made them with almonds when I was first working on this recipe, and the outcome is what made me switch to pecans lol 😅
