Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: N/A
Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 12 fat bombs
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp high-quality matcha green tea powder
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 2 tbsp monk fruit sweetener (or your preferred low-carb sweetener)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, unsweetened shredded coconut, and almond flour. Mix until well combined.
- Add the matcha green tea powder, monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Use a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon to portion out the mixture and form it into smooth, round balls. Place each ball onto a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper.
- Once all the fat bombs are formed, lightly dust the tops with additional matcha powder for an extra touch of flavor and a beautiful finish.
- Transfer the baking sheet or plate to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until the fat bombs are firm and set.
- Store the fat bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Enjoy them chilled as a refreshing and satisfying treat!
Helpful Tips
- For a smoother texture, you can blend the shredded coconut into smaller pieces using a food processor before mixing it with other ingredients.
- If you prefer a sweeter treat, feel free to adjust the amount of sweetener to your taste.
Storage & Ingredient Substitutions
Store these Matcha Green Tea Fat Bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can also freeze them for up to three months, just thaw them for a few minutes before enjoying.
If you need substitutions, almond flour can be replaced with finely ground sunflower seed flour, ensuring nut-free options. Maple syrup or honey can substitute monk fruit sweetener if you aren’t following a low-carb diet.
Pairings
These delightful fat bombs pair beautifully with a cup of hot green tea or a glass of chilled almond milk. For an indulgent experience, enjoy them alongside a fresh fruit salad or a vibrant smoothie bowl.
