How to Make Keto Coffee Loophole Bombs
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter (grass-fed is best)
- ½ cup coconut oil (solid form, not melted)
- ¼ cup brewed espresso (cooled)
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (optional for mocha flavor)
- 2 tbsp powdered erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)
- Pinch of sea salt (optional, but enhances the flavor)
Detailed Instructions
Melt the Fats: In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, gently melt the butter and coconut oil together over low heat. Stir occasionally to blend the fats into a smooth mixture.
Mix the Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooled espresso, cocoa powder (if using), powdered sweetener, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Slowly pour in the melted butter and coconut oil mixture. Stir until everything is well combined. If you’re using heavy cream, add it now for extra richness.
Pour into Molds: Pour the mixture into silicone molds (small cupcake liners or ice cube trays also work). You can adjust the size of each bomb depending on how much you want to snack on.
Chill: Place the molds in the freezer for 30-45 minutes, or until the bombs have fully set.
Serve: Pop the bombs out of the molds and enjoy! Store any leftovers in the fridge or freezer for when you need a quick snack.
Tips For Perfect Keto Coffee Loophole Bombs
Use High-Quality Coffee: The coffee flavor is a big part of what makes these bombs special. Opt for freshly brewed espresso or high-quality strong coffee for the best flavor.
Caffeine-Free Option: If you’re sensitive to caffeine or want to enjoy these in the evening, decaf espresso works just as well.
Choose Your Sweetener Wisely: While erythritol is a popular choice, you can experiment with other keto-approved sweeteners like monk fruit or stevia. Just make sure the sweetener you use blends well and doesn’t have a bitter aftertaste.
Don’t Overheat the Fats: When melting your butter and coconut oil, keep the heat low to preserve their flavor and texture. Overheating can cause the fats to break down and become greasy.
Storage: These bombs store well for up to two weeks in the fridge, or longer in the freezer. Make sure to store them in an airtight container to avoid absorbing any fridge odors.
