Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup erythritol
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the brownies.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, and erythritol until evenly mixed. This helps distribute the chocolate and sweetener uniformly throughout the brownies.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated, which will provide moisture and richness to the batter.
- Combine wet and dry mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender, fudgy texture.
- Bake the brownies: Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center – it should come out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool slightly in the pan before slicing into squares. Cooling helps set their fudgy texture and makes them easier to cut and handle.
Notes
- Do not overbake to keep the brownies moist and fudgy.
- Use erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener to maintain low-carb content.
- Almond flour can sometimes vary in texture; finely ground almond flour works best for a smooth brownie batter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for a week.
- For an extra indulgence, consider adding sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before baking.
