Keto Brownies

Keto Brownies

Ingredients:

      • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted  butter
      • 1 cup almond  flour
      • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
      • 1 cup erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
      • 3 large eggs
      • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
      • 1/4 teaspoon salt
      • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

 

 

  • 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions:

    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
    2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat or in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly.
    3. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
    4. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the melted butter and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.

 

    1. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until well mixed. If using, fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips.
    2. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
    3. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake, as this can cause the brownies to be dry.
    4. Cool: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares.
    5. Enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
