INDULGENT BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE FAT BOMBS (LCHF, KETO)

If we are talking about  increasing fat intake is a part of many healing diets.  These delicious blueberry cheesecake fat bombs can be made easily at home, and if you use dripped yogurt in place of the cream cheese they are GAPS legal and rich in probiotics.


Blueberry Cheesecake Probiotic Fat Bombs (Low carb, keto, GAPS) Recipe

Yummy blueberry cheesecake bites are easy to make and use fresh blueberries for a low carb/high fat treat.


Ingredients

  • 6 ounces (3/4 of a cup) full fat cream cheese or homemade yogurt cheese, dripped (directions here)
  • 2.5 ounces (5 tablespoons) butter, softened
  • ½ cup blueberries
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 ounce (3 tablespoons) melted coconut oil (I like this coconut oil)
  • 3 packets Stevia (optional) (I like this kind)
  • ⅛ teaspoons sea salt (I like this kind)
  • Pretty flower candy mold to make shapes (optional) (find here)

Directions

  1. In a food processor combine all ingredients and puree until smooth.
  2. Use a rubber spatula to spread blueberry mixture into candy mold.
  3. If not using candy mold, spread evenly into a parchment-lined loaf pan.
  4. Freeze for 1 hour, and then cut into 12 pieces if using a loaf pan. Continue freezing until solid, another 1-2 hours.
  5. Pop out of candy mold or loaf pan and store in a covered container in the freezer.
  6. For best taste, allow to thaw 15 minutes before eating.

Notes

  • Using a food scale to measure weight rather than volume of ingredients can save time and dirty dishes, and makes it easy to calculate exact nutrition data if needed. 
  • Nutrition data uses packaged cream cheese as homemade yogurt cheese will vary based on the kind of milk used and other factors.
