As soon as fall arrives it’s all pumpkin this and pumpkin that.  Don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin EVERYTHING, but I think the apple is totally underrated when it comes to fall fruits (that’s right, pumpkin is a fruit!) and even more neglected when it comes to fat bombs. Why? Because many low-carbers avoid fruits due to their high sugar content.  Yes, a medium-sized green apple contains roughly 30g of carbs and 25g of sugar, but this entire recipe uses one apple among 12 servings.  That’s equivalent to less than 3g carbs per fat bomb.   They’re also gluten-free and vegan.  No too shabby!

So let’s not give apple the cold shoulder anymore…

Makes 12 fat bombs

1 green apple, peeled, cored and diced
1/2 cup coconut butter
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
5-8 drops of alcohol-free liquid stevia
Pinch of all-spice
Pinch of salt

Melt 1 Tbsp of coconut oil in a medium frying pan. Add diced apple. Cook until apples are soft. Add cinnamon, stevia and salt. transfer to a blender and puree.  You can also leave chunky for more texture.

Melt coconut butter and 1/2 cup coconut oil in a bain-marie or in the microwave. Stir in apple mixture.

Pour into silicone mold or muffin liners and refrigerate until firm.Pop out of molds and enjoy!Fat bombs will melt at room temperature, so keep them refrigerated in an air tight container or store them in the freezer.
