This snack combines all the best parts of keto macaroons and keto granola into one crispy, sweet, and satisfying bite. They have quickly become one of my new favorite keto snacks!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Here I explain the best ingredients for this keto coconut clusters recipe, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. With a thick pour and rich taste, you can also use it just like regular honey — whether you drizzle onto breakfast or brush on meats.
Unsweetened Coconut Chips – Check labels to make sure they contain no added sugar. Seeds – Including pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds. Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – Optional if you want a sweeter result, with no gritty texture or added net carbs. Without this, the clusters are just slightly sweet. Wholesome Yum Keto Honey – All-natural and deliciously gooey, this is the key to holding the clusters together and also adds subtle sweetness. While regular honey also works, this special ingredient makes this a truly keto coconut clusters recipe. Coconut Oil – Unrefined coconut oil adds extra coconut flavor to this recipe, but you can use refined coconut oil if you prefer a more neutral flavor. Sea Salt – Balances the sweet taste.

Keto Clusters Variations
Keto Nut Clusters – Substitute chopped keto nuts (such as almonds or pecans) for an equivalent amount of seeds. Keto Chocolate Coconut Clusters – Gently melt sugar-free chocolate chips and drizzle over the top of each serving. I recommend making keto dark chocolate coconut clusters, but milk and white varieties would work too! Swap Seeds – Use an equivalent amount of any seeds you prefer, as long as they’re similar in size. For instance, use more pumpkin seeds in place of sunflower seeds, or replace chia seeds with other small varieties like hemp, sesame, or flax. Add Dried Fruit – Add chopped freeze-dried keto fruit to the mix, or a sprinkle of sugar-free dried cranberries. Sprinkle With Spices – Add up to 1 teaspoon total of spices like cinnamon, turmeric, cardamom, or homemade pumpkin pie spice to dry ingredients.
Storage Instructions
Store: Keep coconut keto clusters in a covered container in the fridge for up to 10 days. If they get too soft, you can place in the oven at 250 degrees F for a few minutes, then let them cool, to get crisp again. Freeze: Cool keto clusters and freeze up to 3 months in an airtight container.
More Ways To Use Coconut Keto Clusters
Although great on their own, this coconut keto clusters recipe pairs well with lots of other dishes! Check the progress of clusters as they bake. You want them dark so they stay together (like the photo below), but they go from golden to burnt very fast.
Breakfast – Break clusters and swirl them into keto yogurt (or coconut yogurt), or sprinkle on top of keto oatmeal. Creamy Treats – Use cluster crumbs to add a crunchy element to desserts like keto ice cream or keto vanilla pudding. Cozy Desserts – Crumbled clusters make the perfect complement on top of keto apple crisp, keto blueberry cobbler, or keto peach cobbler. Salads – Crumble the clusters and add sweet crunch to keto salad recipes, like kale crunch salad, chef salad, or green goddess salad.
