Raspberry Chocolate Fat Bombs {low-carb, keto-friendly, & vegan!}
This recipe uses Wildly Organic’s Refined Coconut Oil. Though we typically associate refined with something processed or otherwise of poor quality, that is not the case with coconut oil.
All of Wildly Organic’s coconut oils — refined or not — contain the medium-chain triglycerides and lauric acid found in only the highest quality coconut oils.
The benefits of coconut oil are largely due to their fat content. As such, refined coconut oil has the same fatty acid composition as virgin coconut oil. The biggest difference between the two, however, is the presence or absence of the coconut taste and smell.
Refined coconut oil still retains the same nutritional profile as cold-pressed virgin oil but has a neutral smell and taste!
In the end, it’s a matter of personal preference. These Raspberry Chocolate Fat Bombs need more neutral-flavored coconut oil to allow the delicate flavor of the berries to come through.
Sweetened with liquid stevia, these fat bombs are naturally low in carbs and won’t raise your blood sugar. They make a great afternoon snack for a gentle dose of energy.

- 18 fresh raspberries, halved
-
Melt coconut oil in a small saucepan.
-
Add cacao powder, stevia, vanilla and salt and mix until smooth.
-
Spoon a tablespoon of the coconut chocolate directly into the lined muffin pan cavity. Alternatively, you may use silicone molds for this purpose.

Place 3 raspberry halves on top of the chocolate.

Loosely cover raspberries with more melted chocolate. Sprinkle with coarse salt if desired.

These Raspberry Chocolate Fat Bombs are best kept in the refrigerator in a closed container. Because coconut oil melts at 76 degrees Fahrenheit, these fat bombs must be kept in cold storage. However, I assure you, they won't last long.
