These creamy keto pepperoni pizza fat bombs are a quick, savory snack packed with cheesy, spicy pizza flavors, perfect for satisfying cravings without the carbs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (227 g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (100 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) pepperoni slices, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons (28 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons (10 g) finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • Black pepper, freshly ground, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese and butter by leaving them at room temperature for about 5 minutes until soft enough to blend easily.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually mix in the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses until the mixture thickens and becomes stretchy.
  4. Add garlic powder, dried Italian seasoning, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Blend well to distribute the flavors evenly.
  5. Gently fold in the chopped pepperoni slices using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly spread throughout the mixture.
  6. Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, portion the mixture into silicone molds or a mini muffin tin. Press slightly to compact the mixture. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top if desired.
  7. Place the molds in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  8. Once firm, pop the fat bombs out of the molds and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese and butter are properly softened to avoid lumps. Use freshly shredded mozzarella for best texture. Chill fat bombs for at least 1 hour to set properly. If too soft after chilling, freeze for 10-15 minutes before serving. Variations include using vegan cream cheese and dairy-free mozzarella for dairy-free version, or swapping pepperoni for cooked sausage or bacon bits.
