AB&J Fat Bombs Meal Prep (Keto & Paleo!)

Because they’re so much more time consuming, we tend to focus our easy meal prep recipes around, well, meals. But snacks are just as important! Not having access to healthy snacks throughout the day can be a surefire way to slip up and eat more calories than you want or need to. Those in-between meal times are when we are most vulnerable to the donuts in the break room or that fast food restaurant that’s on your way home from work. So we came up with these satisfying fat bombs- the perfect snack allies!

Fat bombs are exactly what they sound like- snacks that prioritize fat over all other nutrients. These ones for example come in at a whopping 23 grams of fat per serving. Fat bombs are essential snacks for folks on a keto diet, as it can sometimes be challenging to get enough fat from meals alone. But they’re also a great snack to have on hand for anyone working a physically or mentally draining day. Fat is a great way to stay fuller longer and to activate brain function! Fat bombs typically have a base of coconut oil, coconut butter, and/or nut butter (non-peanut if they’re paleo), and are a great vessel for getting in a few servings of healthy spices and supplements such as cinnamon, ginger, collagen, or medicinal mushrooms.

We’re calling the flavor profile for these particular fat bombs AB&J: almond butter and jelly. We used blackberries because we love the contrast of their fruity tang against the richness of the fatty coconut and almonds, but we encourage you to experiment with any of your favorite low-sugar fruits. Blueberries, raspberries, or cherries would all make great alternatives! Because they’re vegan, these fat bombs have quite a long shelf life in the fridge. Make plenty ahead of time and enjoy for weeks! This easy meal prep is one for the keto books.
