Pumpkin Fat Bomb
My hubby loves anything and everything pumpkin. Now that we are following a keto lifestyle I thought it was time for me to work on a Pumpkin Fat Bomb that he would love. Since I know one of his favorite fat bombs is Peanut Butter Fluff, it was an easy decision. Instead of peanut butter, I added pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice. Then, he suggested that I double the original recipe because knew it was going to be his most favorite fat bomb ever. I don’t love pumpkin as much as he does, however, I added toasted pecans and a few Lily’s Chocolate Chips and fell in love as well. I love the added crunch of the pecans with the flavor of the chocolate chips. They balance the pumpkin beautifully. However, for hardcore pumpkin lovers, they may be optional.

Did you include the pecans and chocolate in the nutritional info? Looks delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Hi! No, those are listed as optional as I know not everyone will want to add those. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Do you have to use sweetner?
That is up to you. If you don’t want to use sweetener you could certainly try it without, although I am not sure how good it would taste.
Is there an alternative to Swerve confectioners. Would Stevia work?
I don’t personally like Stevia because it has a weird aftertaste to me, but you could give it a try if that is what you have.
How long does this keep for? Trying to work out how to scale the recipe down if only making for one person unless it keeps really well in the fridge.
I would say just a couple of days.
How much equals a serving size?
I didn’t measure instead I just divided it into equal sized servings.
How would this freeze? I am also trying to cook for 1. I don’t like to mess with cooking during the week.
I haven’t tried freezing, so I’m not sure if it would freeze well.
