Before we dive into this easy keto dessert recipe and learn how to make cheesecake bites, let’s talk about what keto fat bombs are and what their purpose is in a low carb diet.

What are fat bombs?

Fat bombs are comparable to energy balls. But instead of being made with high carb ingredients like dates or oats, fat bombs are made with high fat, low carb materials. Fat bombs provide an energy boost and help the body absorb nutrients and vitamins from other foods.

A what is the purpose of a keto fat bomb?

Recent studies have found that high-quality saturated fats, such as coconut oil, butter, peanut butter, cream or cream cheese, can be beneficial for your health and wellbeing – contrary to the widespread belief that all fats are bad (source 1, 2).

Why use fat bombs on keto?

Fat bombs are a healthy low carb snack before a workout, to fight that afternoon slump and promote concentration, or great keto dessert after dinner. Cream cheese fat bombs help to increase fat intake, which is especially useful for beginners of the keto diet. Plus, my cheesecake bites are super easy and so delicious!

Are keto fat bombs good for you?

Yes, keto fat bombs are good for you and beneficial for your diet plan. Low carb cheesecake bites help you stay on track with your diet, allow you to enjoy a sweet treat guilt-free and tackle those sugar cravings.

How many fat bombs can I eat on keto?

Since no-bake cheesecake balls are very filling and rich, enjoy them in moderation. One or two per day usually do the trick to keep you satiated.

Low carb keto cream cheese fat bomb ingredients

Curious what’s in this low carb fat bombs recipe? Crustless keto cheesecake bites  are made of a few simple ingredients:

• cream cheese – Use regular, full-fat cream cheese for this recipe. I don’t recommend fat-reduced cream cheese as it won’t hold up well. I like Philadelphia cream cheese – not just for this treat, but also no bake cheesecake!
• grass-fed butter – The keto cheesecake bites recipes calls for 3 tbsp butter, which is 60 g or 1/4 cup or 1/2 stick. Ideally, use grass-fed butter without any additives. You can also use coconut oil instead of butter or half butter half coconut oil.
• low carb sweetener – A powdered sweetener is best in this keto dessert recipe, e.g. powdered erythritol, powdered monkfruit sweetener, or Swerve Confectioners. A granular sweetener would also work, but the texture will be a little more gritty. I also tried liquid Stevia, but it didn’t provide enough sweetness in my opinion.

This keto snack is basically a 3 ingredient fat bombs recipe. Optionally, you can also add the following 4th ingredient:

• MCT oil – MCT oil enhances the benefits of these 3 ingredient cream cheese fat bombs further. Just don’t add more than 1 tablespoon or the keto cheesecake balls will become quite oily.

Can you eat cream cheese on keto?

Yes, you can eat cream cheese on the ketogenic diet. 1 tablespoon cream cheese has 5 grams of fat but less than 1 gram carbs and protein, making it a great ingredient for easy no-bake cream cheese bites and low carb cream cheese dessert recipes.

How do you store keto cheesecake bites?

Do cheesecake bites need to be refrigerated or frozen? Because cheesecake bites are made with dairy products, the fat bombs must be refrigerated. The best way to store them is in the freezer.

Can you freeze low carb cheesecake fat bombs? What is the shelf life of low carb cheesecake fat bombs?

How long do cheesecake bites last? Cream cheese bites will last for up to a week in the refrigerator. You can also store keto cheesecake bites in the freezer for a month. Frozen fat bombs come in handy when you need a quick and healthy snack recipe.

I like to keep my sugar-free cheesecake balls in reusable freezer bags. You can also put them in these food containers. Put parchment/baking paper between layers so the cheesecake balls don’t stick.
