These bite-sized Bacon Crab Rangoon Fat Bombs are loaded with flavor and provide a nutritious hit of healthy fats. They’re Gluten Free and Keto. If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.
While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

There are just so many delicious things you can eat and most say they never really feel hungry. Unlike other diets where you always feel like you’re starving to death.

Do you have the nutritional information for each of the fat bombs?
I don’t have the nutritional information as of yet but I plan to include it in the future.
I did the nutrition macro on these Michelle. Not really a “fat bomb” per say, but definitely Keto friendly. Nutrition per 1 Rangoon bite: Calories:32.3 Total Fat:5.3 Sat Fat: 208 Poly Fat: .1 Mono Fat:.8 Trans Fat:0 Cholesterol: 20.2 Sodium: 118.6 Potassium: 25.9 Carbs: .4 Fiber: .03 Sugars:.05 Protein: 3.7
25.9 carbs? Is that possible for one of these?
Hi Gail, no that shouldn’t be right. Someone else did the macros and commented that it’s
.4 Carbs per serving.
The potassium is 25.9
She did the numbers after the word. It’s potassium that is 25.9
carbs are .4 The 25.9 is for the Potassium. I read it the same way as you at first.
There is no way it has 25 grand of carbs…maybe for the whole recipe but per serving.
How long will these keep in the fridge?
Hi Cheryl. They should last 3 – 5 days in the fridge.
What is the best serving temperature? ie warm or cold
I had them cold.
Can you use imitation crab instead of canned crab?
Hi Abby, Imitation Crab isn’t gluten free or keto usually. It would work but most of the brands I’ve seen have wheat flour in the ingredients.
Can you make these without the crab? They sound amazing I just don’t like seafood 😔lol
Hi Jen, you could definitely make them without the crab.
Is there another option to roll them in besides bacon.. sadly I don’t eat bacon 🙈
Hi Morgan, we had some of them without bacon and they were still really yummy. It helped to keep them in the fridge for a little bit longer, to make them a bit more firm. We also tried them rolled a little toasted almond which was also very good.
Can I use sour cream or ricotta cheese instead of cream cheese? Not a cream cheese person.
Hi Rikkilin, I haven’t tried using either but I would say that ricotta cheese would probably work. The sour cream might not be thick enough.
The instructions aren’t clear on what to do with the Finely Minced Garlic. Is that part of step 1? The sentence structure reads like it’s only pertaining to the garlic powder and onion powder.
Yes, it is part of step 1.
This sound so delicious will definitely be making this! Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome 😊
Has anyone tried a cheese other than mozzarella?
These are so good!!! I could honestly each it as dinner. And with the low carb content and the way it fills you up 4 would be enough.
I got 64 calories each (22 pieces)
This looks so good ! A yummy keto treat or appetizer for guests!
Thanks for sharing! Do they keep long?
