Keto Buffalo Chicken Fat Bombs
This savory snack is the bomb!
Keto Buffalo chicken fat bombs are the perfect low carb appetizer, snack, or even dinner idea that you’ve been looking for. All the delicious flavors combined into an easy keto fat bomb that you can just pop into your mouth without all the mess… I am talking to you Buffalo wings!
Not only are these fat bombs amazing for a healthy dosage of fat fuel, but they’re also packed with protein for lasting energy. In this recipe, I went with pre-shredded chicken I got from the store, but feel free to get creative or go with what you have on hand. You could use leftover shredded chicken, chopped grilled chicken, rotisserie chicken, or even a can of chicken in a pinch.
Tips for making the best keto Buffalo chicken fat bombs:
-
- You can go homemade or storebought based on your preference. I made fresh bacon crumbles, but pre-crumbled bacon works just as well. I also made our ranch seasoning from Hip2Save, but you can use any keto-friendly ranch seasoning you would like.
-
- I used a small ice cream scooper or melon baller to make my fat bombs. It’s the perfect size to create individual fat bombs.
-
- Want a bolder flavor for your fat bombs? Feel free to ramp up the hot sauce or throw in some diced green onions for an extra kick of flavor!
-
- Wrap it up! Grab a few pieces of lettuce and throw in a few of these Buffalo chicken fat bombs for a crunchalicious lunch! It’s like chicken salad with a spicy kick!

It’s time to get saucy with keto Buffalo chicken fat bombs!
If you’re looking for a flavorful low-carb snack, Buffalo chicken wing fat bombs are an easy go-to. The rich flavor from the cream cheese to the spicy kick of the Buffalo sauce is the perfect combination. I love doubling this recipe so I have a batch ready to grab when I need a quick snack on the go.
These fat bombs are also great to plate with a side of ranch and celery for simple lunch option. I also can’t wait to make a spread of these when we can start having regular cookouts and get-togethers again!
My Hip sidekick Taylor tried out this recipe and here’s what she thought:
“WOW, these Buffalo chicken fat bombs were absolutely delicious and so full of flavor! I will definitely be making them again and I love that you can just throw all the ingredients in a bowl and mix them up vs. multiple recipe steps. The size of the batch was perfect and one or two zesty bombs are enough to give you a good fat boost, but you’ll probably end up grabbing more as I did because they’re oh so tasty!”
Has anyone tried these yet? They sound great, I even think my daughter would enjoy them, but I’m having a hard time thinking of them cold.
Those look great! It’s nice to see savory options that are quick and high fat!
Let us know what you think when you make them, Lisa!
I just made these and they are super delish! I filled a celery stalk with the mixture. Yummy!!!
That sounds like a winner!
Delicious and so easy to make. I did half with Franks and half with G Hughes sugar free BBQ sauce.
I will make these again with Tuna and serve with celery sticks…can’t wait. Thank You for the recipe!
YUM! You’re so welcome! Glad you enjoyed these!
Can you use canned chicken for this
Yes, you can!
Can these be frozen?
I would not recommend freezing these as they have cream cheese in them.
Anyone tried to bake them? I have a picky eater only like hot things
Hey Marissa! We haven’t done that, however it likely could work! They may turn out a bit less firm when baked, possibly more like a dip. Let us know how you like it if you give that a try! 🤗
