BLACKBERRY LEMON FAT BOMBS

Whatever craziness you’re facing in your life right now, it is certainly nothing these little guys can’t fix. (Joking, but not really.)

These babies were born out of my journey on whole30 – which by the way I am on day 27!! – as fat bombs should be a staple for any whole30-er (or honestly anyone, period. They are that good.)
Why so good, you ask? Fat bombs are BOMB when you want to kick the junk food and sugar cravings and stay full longer. Plus they are quick and easy to make. I mean these only consist of 4 ingredients! And most important, they are delish. Like I’m obsessed with them. If you only knew how many variations of fat bombs I have experimented with while on whole30…
Despite the name of these fat bombs sounding mega-tart due to blackberries and lemons both being sour in nature, what I love most about these is that they are actually just the right amount of tart thanks to the MVP neutralizing and healthy fat fueling ingredients: coconut oil and coconut milk.
I tried to make this recipe customizable for you to add in the amount of each ingredient based on your preference. So please do a taste test and add in what you want some more of at any point.
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

Blackberry Lemon Fat Bombs

 Servings 8 fat bombs (roughly)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter smooth
  • 1/2 cup fresh packed blackberries
  • 1 - 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice more to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the coconut milk coconut oil and cashew butter over the stove to combine well, just until warm.
  2. Place this mix in a food processor or high-speed blender and add the blackberries and lemon juice.
  3. Taste test the mix and add more of any ingredient as you see fit. Pour evenly into mini muffin pan or ice cube tray and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour until mix is hard. Or place in the freezer for a shorter amount of time to harden mix. Enjoy! Store in freezer or covered in the refrigerator.

Recipe Notes

When I created this recipe, I was on whole30 which is why I did not add any sweetener to these fat bombs. However, I imagine this recipe would also be good with some added vanilla extract, maple syrup, honey, or even coconut sugar. Feel free to experiment!
