Keto Brownie Recipe

Keto Brownie Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup granulated keto sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped walnuts

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
  2. Melt Butter and Mix: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (or coconut oil). Add the keto sweetener and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, whisking well after each addition to help the brownies rise and develop that classic fudgy texture.

 

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Sift them together to prevent any lumps.
  2. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a smooth, thick batter forms. If adding sugar-free chocolate chips or walnuts, fold them in now.
  3. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (for a fudgy texture). Avoid overbaking to keep them soft and gooey.
  4. Cool and Serve: Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm or chilled for a fudgy, chocolatey keto treat!

These keto brownies are great on their own or served with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a drizzle of keto-friendly chocolate ganache!
