Clean Eating & Low Carb Almond Butter Fat Bombs – no-bake, vegan, gluten-free, keto, and sugar-free options!
A lot has changed in the almost-three years since I first mentioned the recipe.
I’ve moved to a new state, made new friends, started and ended relationships, published a cookbook…
And yet, after all these years, I am still obsessed with this impossible-to-stop-eating almond butter fudge.
Oftentimes, I will just mix everything up right in the almond butter jar and completely skip the step of cutting it into fudge.
I’ve always been a taste-while-you-cook type of girl.

The raw fudge recipe is similar to my recipe for Healthy Peanut Butter Fudge, but banana haters will be thrilled to know that THIS ONE DOES NOT CALL FOR BANANA!
Nope, no banana whatsoever.
Of course you can use peanut butter, cashew butter, Sunbutter for allergy-friendly fudge, or another nut butter if you prefer.
PB&Co Dark Chocolate Dreams chocolate fudge??? Not sure how anyone could say no to that.
I’ve always wanted to try pistachio butter and only wish it weren’t so expensive. I bet it would be wonderful in this recipe.
But almond butter is still my #1 favorite for this clean eating and keto fudge recipe, perhaps due to the memories it brings back of my life in Texas when I first came up with the combination and would polish off a third of a jar each morning before anyone else had woken.
*I first wrote about this fudge in my post on Why I Gave Up Running.
Just try this fudge, and see if you have better luck with portion control than I do!

Almond Butter Fat Bombs
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond butter OR allergy-friendly alternative
- 2 1/2 tbsp virgin coconut oil or coconut butter
- optional 2 1/2 tbsp liquid sweetener of choice*
- optional: a few drops maple extract
Instructions
- *To sweeten, you can use maple syrup, agave, honey (non-vegan), stevia drops, etc. I actually really like this without any sweetener at all, and if you’re the kind of person who eats peanut butter from the jar, you might also like it unsweetened.Be sure that you like the taste of whatever coconut oil you are using. My favorite brand is Whole Foods 365 Organic Virgin Coconut Oil; I’ve found some other brands to have a smoky flavor I’d rather not add to a dessert. To Make: Combine the almond butter and coconut oil or coconut butter, and gently warm until the nut butter is easily stir-able and the coconut oil is liquid. Stir in the sweetener if desired, then spoon into a plastic container or candy molds. Freeze a few hours until solid, and store leftovers in the freezer.View Nutrition Facts

These look so delicious and easy to make! Can’t wait to try!
What a creative way to use almond butter! I have a jar in the house, so I’ll make this instead of eating it with a spoon. 🙂
woww… very nice recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
What molds did you use for these
I was not prepared for how good these are! I only had 1/3 cup of almond butter in the house, so I used 2 T. coconut oil / coconut butter (1 T. each), 1.5 T. maple syrup, and 1 drop maple extract. The taste is so perfect that I don’t even care if they don’t harden–although I expect they will. Thanks again, Katie! Another winner!
I love these! I came up with a single serving size adaptation for these, as I cannot be trusted to make a whole batch. I use: 1 Tbsp almond butter, 1 tsp coconut oil, 1 tsp maple syrup, & 1 tsp cocoa powder. They are great without the cocoa powder too. Thanks for another wonderful recipe, & congrats on your recent successes!!
Thanks for sharing the single serving idea! That’s awesome 🙂
I love how simple this recipe is!!!! And so yummy………. So very very yummy…..
I’ve never seen anything like this – and the photo looks so tempting. I’ve made date and almond butter truffles before which are great, but am so intrigued by this!
These were delicious Katie! They came out perfect. I used honey for my sweetener and sprinkled a few cacao nibs on each cup for just a hint of chocolate taste. Yumm!
