Nutella Fat Bombs
It’s really just Hazelnut flavour
Nutella is a word that sends dessert lovers in a tizzy and both men and women, weak in the knees at the very mention of it. Let’s be honest, most of us LOVE it and have at some point in our lives eaten a fairly large serving of it in one sitting. Which is why I came up with a Keto Nutella recipe and even used it to make a Nutella mug cake. Now that I’m on board with making fat bombs and made my first ever chocolate and peanut butter fat bomb, the next obvious flavour was Nutella.
Count your calories
These fat bombs are quite calorie dense. You don’t realize how easy it is to go through a couple of them in a single sitting. Which is why I ask, do you really need fat bombs? I think it really boils down to how your macros are and if you are hitting those fat macros. I also think if you can exercise control and eat just 1 or 2 in a day, then they make sense and it can keep you from eating too much protein, especially if you are a meat eater. Otherwise just make them ever smaller and keep them for just after meals as a palette cleanser.

Nutella Fat Bombs
Ingredients
- 100 grams Cocoa Butter I use this one
- 100 grams Hazelnuts
- 1 Tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder I recommend this one
- 2 Tbsp Erythritol (Powdered) I recommend this
- a pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a dry pan roast the hazelnuts till they turn a nice golden colour. You can alternatively do this in the oven as well.
- Blend the nuts in a food processor for 10-15 minutes or till you get a nice hazelnut butter
- Add in the sweetener, cocoa powder and salt and blend again.
- Melt the cocoa butter in bursts of 30 seconds in the microwave till fully melted
- Add the butter to the hazelnut mixture and blend till smooth
- Pour into molds and let it set in the fridge or freezer. This makes about 8 fat bombs of 25 grams each.
- Serve and Enjoy.
The cocoa butter link you supplied above say it is “for external use only”.
Is that the right link?
Yeah scroll down on the page it does mention recipes with it
Recipes for external use… This is not intended to ingest.
What?
In my Sprouts Market in their nut butter section, they have a coconut butter intended for consumption. Maybe look on Amazon or your local natural grocers.
Hi Sahil,
How much powdered Stevia can I use instead of Erythritol ?
Thanks for your awesome recipes!!!
I would add a little, taste the mixture and add till you are satisfied with the sweetness.
Yes. I just had the same issue. Is there another brand we should use?
Can I use Almonds instead of Hazelnuts?? Lovely recipes, thank you.
Sure thing. It will just be a chocolate almond fatbomb then 🙂
What about pecans ? Can they be used too in the same way ??
yes
hello how much would it take if i add liquid stevia ?
Keep tasting as you add it.
Hi Sahil,
Could I make these with coconut oil instead of cocoa butter? Cocoa butter is so expensive here! Thanks!
Yes for sure!
Can I use Hazelnut flour instead of Hazelnuts?
I’ve never tried turning hazelnut flour into butter but if it works, sure.
Hi my grocer only had regular erythritol and not powdered. Would that work? And do I have to make any substitutions on the volume it is 2 tablespoons okay?
You can powder it at home and use it. 🙂
Hey Sahil, can we use regular butter instead of cacao? And if we do buy cacao then does it come handy for other keto desserts?
Yes you can use regular butter and yes you can use cacao butter for desserts too. I’ve used it in a couple of my mug cakes.
just fyi …. Love, love, love your recipes!
Thank you for the receipe. What can we substitute cocoa butter with? Thanks
Regular unsalted butter or coconut oil. the good one that is solid at room temp.
Hi, for some reason i was not able to get my high power (Ninja) blender to blitz the hazelnuts. Did i not toast them enough?
No it just means the blender isn’t powerful enough or you didn’t blitz them for long enough as it does take some time.
thank you!
