Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup erythritol (or preferred keto-friendly sweetener)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Add-ins
- ½ cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the brownies.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined and smooth.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the melted unsalted butter, erythritol, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a thick brownie batter forms, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
- Transfer Batter and Smooth: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula for an even bake.
- Bake the Brownies: Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into 16 squares to achieve clean cuts and the best texture.
Notes
- Make sure not to overbake to keep the brownies fudgy and moist.
- You can substitute erythritol with other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit or stevia, adjusting sweetness to taste.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy removal.
- For extra fudginess, refrigerate the brownies after cooling.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
