What Kinds of Fat to Eat on Keto

If you’ve been eating keto for a while, you probably know that not all fats are created equal. We try to include a variety of saturated fats, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats as part of our diet. Here are a few examples of healthy fats, broken down by category:

Healthy Saturated Fat Sources (Great For Adding to Keto Fat Bombs)

  • Organic coconut oil
  • Grass-fed dairy, like butter and cream
  • Grass-fed fatty meat
  • Lard from grass-fed pork
  • Organic cacao butter

Healthy Monounsaturated Fat Sources

  • Olives and extra-virgin olive oil
  • Avocados and avocado oil
  • Almonds
  • Eggs

Healthy Polyunsaturated Fat Sources

  • Flaxseed or flax oil
  • Walnuts
  • Fish, such as salmon, mackerel, and trout

When You Should Eat Fat Bombs on the Ketogenic Diet

Fat is a large part of the ketogenic way of eating, making up about 70% of macros. Getting enough fat to keep your body in ketosis is crucial. Since the fat content in our diet is so high, it can sometimes be a challenge to get it all in, which is where tools like fat bombs come into play.

We enjoy fat bombs in a variety of flavors, both sweet and savory, but sweet fat bombs (basically “keto candy”) can be a lifesaver if you have a sweet tooth. Fat is incredibly satiating, and as a result there are usually no feelings of deprivation when following the ketogenic lifestyle.

Ingredients

  • 1 oz cacao butter
  • 6 tablespoons organic grass-fed unsalted butter cut into cubes
  • 2 tablespoons Swerve Confectioners
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon stevia glycerite
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 6 tablespoons organic heavy whipping cream
  • 4 oz 90% dark chocolate

Instructions

  • Melt the cacao butter in a double boiler or microwave. Once melted, add the cubed butter and stir until melted.
  • Stir in the Swerve Confectioners, vanilla bean paste, vanilla extract, almond extract, stevia glycerite, and salt.
  • Once mixed, stir in the cream.
  • Pour the mixture into 8 cubes of a standard ice cube tray, and transfer to the freezer. Freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
  • Remove the candy from the ice cube tray. (If they don’t easily pop out, dip the bottom in warm water for a few seconds.)
  • Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Coat the candy in the dark chocolate and transfer the candy to a wire rack so any excess chocolate can drip off.
  • Let the chocolate harden before serving. Store the candy in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

    Love your recipes
    What can I use in place of the vanilla bean paste?

      Hi Debie,

      You can use vanilla extract, it will have a less potent flavor.
