Raise your hand if you love peanut butter! I definitely do, and I also love all things flavored like peanut butter. These fat bombs actually do not use peanut butter, but peanut butter powder. (If you are a peanut butter fan who hasn’t heard of peanut butter powder before, you might be having an “OMG!” moment. I definitely did when I first heard about peanut butter powder!)
I talk a little more about peanut butter powder later in the post, but the short version is peanut butter powder is a great way to add peanut butter flavoring to a recipe.
You can also add some keto friendly chocolate to these keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs if you’d like. I just added a single milk chocolate ChocZero chocolate chip to a few of my fat bombs, but you can get a little crazy and add more chocolate to your preference. More about some of my favorite keto-friendly chocolate below!
Ingredients Needed for Keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs
To make these fat bombs, you’ll need the following ingredients (all of which I consider staples of the keto diet):
Naked PB Peanut Butter Powder
Some peanut butter powders add sugar, but this stuff is just pure roasted peanuts. It’s low in net carbs and has a decent amount of protein in it!
Nutiva Coconut Manna
This stuff is seriously amazing and a must-have for the keto diet! It’s naturally sweet, and it turns into a deliciously creamy treat when it’s warmed.

Bob’s Red Mill Unsweetened Macaroon Coconut
I used macaroon coconut in this keto fat bomb recipe because it’s finely ground, giving the end result a better texture. If you don’t want to purchase this kind, you can put regular unsweetened coconut flakes in a food processor or coffee grinder to get a finely ground texture.
Lakanto Maple-Flavored Syrup
Stock up on a bottle (or five) of this… it is heavenly! Best of all, two tablespoons contain only 1g net carbs after you subtract the fiber and sugar alcohols.
NOW Better Organic Stevia Sweetener
My favorite stevia that isn’t bitter at all.
Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract
A nice vanilla extract with a good flavor.
Webake Silicone Fat Bomb / Chocolate Molds
I love this 2-pack of mini fat bomb molds! They’re shaped like mini Reese’s Cups and, thanks to the silicone material, whatever you put in them pops out easily.
How to Make Keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs
Note: Feel free to double or even triple this recipe!
To start making keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs, you’ll need to melt your coconut manna. There are two methods depending on your preference:
Method #1: Place your jar of coconut manna in a bowl of hot water for at least 20 minutes to soften the contents. After 20 minutes, open the jar and carefully mix to combine the manna and oil. Remove what you need and place it in a bowl. If it’s not fully smooth, you can quickly microwave it (10 seconds) to smooth it out before mixing in the rest of the ingredients.
Method #2: Microwave the jar (lid OFF) in 10-second bursts, stirring between each burst. You want to get to a drippy consistency. I usually get there within 30 seconds.
Combine 7 tbsp melted coconut manna with every ingredient except the maple-flavored syrup. Once you’ve combined all of the other ingredients, add the maple-flavored syrup last. Mix one last time to combine, then evenly distribute it across your fat bomb molds.
Stick your mold in the freezer for 30 minutes or the fridge for 60 minutes before digging in.
How to Eat Keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs
These are pretty small fat bombs. Each fat bomb contains 0.77g net carbs and 4g fat, so I suggest eating at least two at a time to give yourself a proper “bomb” of fat. (Trust me, that will be easy to do!)
Want Chocolate Peanut Butter Fat Bombs?
Peanut butter and chocolate are a match made in heaven, so feel free to add some keto friendly chocolate (chips or chopped pieces) to these. I just added a single chocolate chip to the bottom of a few of my keto Peanut Butter Fat Bombs, but you could add the chocolate to the batter too.
Where Can I Get Keto-Friendly Chocolate?
I love ChocZero chocolate chips! You can get them in milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate. All flavors taste great in these fat bombs! 🙂 Use coupon code FORGETSUGARFRIDAY for 10% off your order.
Why Use Peanut Butter Powder in These Fat Bombs?
I know you might be thinking: “Ummm, these are fat bombs. Why would I use peanut butter powder, which contains less fat than traditional peanut butter?”
The answer is that peanut butter powder does a great job of infusing a peanut butter flavor — a better job, in my opinion, than actual peanut butter! If you want to make peanut butter muffins, peanut butter cake, peanut butter fat bombs… peanut butter powder will do a great job. Plus, since it’s a powder instead of a dense butter, it acts much more like a flour in recipes.
My absolute favorite powdered peanut butter is Naked PB Peanut Butter Powder. Unlike some powdered peanut butter that is full of sugar (which boosts the carb content), Naked PB is “naked” — meaning it contains no other additives or fillers. Plus, it tastes great and is budget-friendly!
Is Peanut Butter Okay on a Keto Diet?
Some “keto purists” may say that you shouldn’t eat peanut butter on keto because peanuts aren’t actually nuts, they’re legumes (the same plant family that includes beans), and legumes are pretty high in carbs.
I believe the keto lifestyle is best lived with a bit of flexibility. If you’re craving legumes one day, whether it’s peanuts or kidney beans or lentils, and you can fit a small amount into your macros for that particular day, then go for it. The great Keto God is not going to come down and strike you with lightning for doing so.
So yes, peanut butter (or peanut butter powder) is okay on the keto diet. Just be smart about it!

Is it possible to add the Yummly tag to your website? I like to store my recipes there so I don’t have to print them out. This would be a fantastic addition to your website.
Hi Lynda, Thank you for the request! I’ll look into it and see what I can do. 🙂
