Blueberry Cheesecake Probiotic Fat Bombs (Low carb, keto, GAPS)
As we talked about with our recipe for the Nutbutter Cup Fat Bombs, increasing fat intake is a part of many healing diets. These delicious blueberry cheesecake keto 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.
Keto bombs are treats that usually are sweet, but like our Jalapeno Bacon Keto Bombs they also can be savory. Because the ketogenic diet relies on avoiding carbs to remain in ketosis and stay in fat-burning mode, treats are made of mostly fat, some protein, and a little no-sugar sweetener. If you are not doing keto for weight loss, you may find it helpful to include fat bombs in your diet to maintain your weight.
These Blueberry Bliss Fat Bombs are full of delicious berry flavor and are a power-packed source of nutrient-dense ingredients!
When the seasons change, I always have one thing on my mind: FRESH PRODUCE. Purchasing produce while it’s in-season, aside from the obvious price reduction, is usually much fresher and higher in nutrients as it likely didn’t have to travel as far to show up at your local grocery store. Plus, it just tastes better! Now that summer has arrived, berries are finaaaaally in-season (and no longer cost $300 + your first born child per 1/2 pint)!
Now that we’re fully stocked up on enough blueberries to feed our entire neighborhood, I figured that I needed to put them to good use and develop some fun, new summer recipes. Well, since I’m on a fat bomb kick, the answer was simple: Blueberry Bliss Fat Bombs! The final result is SO GOOD. The texture is perfect and is similar to that of my Lemon Bar Fat Bombs. These fat bombs taste amazing, plus their nutritional value is spot on!
Blueberries are considered to be one of the most nutrient-dense foods available to us. They are loaded with vitamin K, vitamin C, manganese, and fiber, all of which are critical components in a healthy, balanced diet. The antioxidant power of blueberries make them incredibly important in reducing inflammation, boosting brain power, promoting heart health, and supporting digestion.

Ingredients
- 2 cups raw cashews, boiled for 12 minutes or soaked for 2 hours
- 14 oz fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup coconut butter
- 1/4-1/2 tsp stevia (depending on your sweetness preference)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat blueberries for about 1 minute, until just slightly warmed.
- Combine all ingredients in food processor and blend until well-combined. Transfer mixture to medium bowl and place in freezer for 30 minutes.
- Remove bowl from freezer and, using your hands, form mixture into small balls. Place balls on pan or plate and return to freezer for 30-40 minutes. (I recommend putting them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper to avoid the bottoms sticking to a plate or pan.)
- Remove from freezer and enjoy!
Recipe Notes:
- If you use a brand of stevia that is different than the one I have linked here, you may need to add more. The brand of stevia that I use in this recipe is VERY potent and a little bit goes a very long way!
- Store fat bombs in airtight container in refrigerator.
