Filled with real raspberries and creamy almond butter, these keto “PB&J” cups are a healthy, guilt-free treat!
Almond butter and a sugar-free homemade jam combine with coconut oil for an energy-filled snack!
Almond butter replaces the peanut butter in these “PB&J” cups, as it contains more cell-repairing phosphorus and twice the bone-building magnesium that peanut butter offers. (Note: Sunflower seed butter could also be used instead.)

The jelly center is made of keto-friendly raspberries mixed with collagen containing grass-fed gelatin. To set the cups, add coconut oil, forming a smooth shell layer on the top and bottom of the jam filling.
Start by combining water and raspberries in a small saucepan and bring to a low boil. Simmer for five minutes and mash raspberries with a fork. Remove from heat and stir in stevia, followed by a gradual sprinkle of gelatin (this helps ensure it doesn’t clump). Pour the jam into a small jar and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
While the jam sets, melt coconut oil and almond butter in a double boiler and mix until smooth. To assemble the cups, pour 2 tablespoons of almond butter mixture into each muffin tin and freeze 15 minutes. Next, add 1 teaspoon of jam and smooth with a spoon. Finish with remaining almond butter over the top of each cup, then freeze for another 15 minutes. Store cups in the refrigerator to enjoy anytime you need a sweet, keto-friendly treat!
