👉 Easy ingredient swaps

💬 FAQs
What is a fat bomb?
A fat bomb is a small, rich, low-carb treat made mostly from fats like cream cheese, butter, and nut or seed butter. A little one satisfies, which makes them a favorite for keeping carbs low while still enjoying something sweet.
How do I make these nut-free?
Swap the almond butter for No-Sugar-Added SunButter (sunflower seed butter). Everything else stays the same, and you get the same creamy french-toast flavor without any nuts.
How should I store french toast fat bombs?
Keep them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months, or in the fridge for up to a week. Because they’re cream-cheese based, they’re best stored cold and enjoyed chilled.
Why do they need to freeze before serving?
Freezing firms up the soft cream cheese base so the fat bombs hold their shape and stay easy to handle. If you skip the freeze, they’ll be too soft to pick up.
Are these low in carbs?
Yes — made with cream cheese, almond butter, and sugar-free sweeteners, each fat bomb is about 1 gram of net carbs.
