The Best Fudgy Keto Brownies (SUPER EASY TO MAKE) Only 2g Carbs

These super easy to make keto brownies are super low in carbs, fudgy and have a dense and creamy texture that melts in your mouth. To make the brownies, we use almond flour, chocolate, butter and they are the best low carb dessert ever – only 2g carbs.

In less than 40 minutes you have the perfect keto brownies that are the ideal company for a cup of keto coffee or your favorite tea.

Brownies are one of my favorite keto desserts, chocolatey and chewy. You’ll be surprised to find out that the ingredients we are using are low in carbs and super easy to find. You’ll need only seven low carb ingredients:


  • almond flour
  • keto approved sweetener/paleo sweetener
  • high-quality dark cocoa
  • dark chocolate (99 percent would be perfect)
  • butter, grass fed to make the brownies healthier
  • eggs, to bind everything up
  • a pinch of baking powder

The brownies are sugar-free, gluten-free and with a few switches, you can make them paleo compliant too.

They last for a week in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the brownies and eat when craving a chocolatey keto dessert.

If you want to use a different sweetener, just taste test and adjust it to the desired taste.


Ingredients:


  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 3 eggs at room temperature
  • 12 tbsp butter softened
  • 1/4 cup dark cocoa powder
  • 2 oz dark chocolate
  • 3/4 cup erythritol
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder


Instructions:


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Line with parchment paper an 8×8-inch baking pan covering the bottom and the sides.
  3. In a bowl mix the butter and the dark chocolate. Microwave for 30 seconds or let the mixture melt on a double boiler.
  4. Meanwhile, combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, baking powder.
  5. In a big bowl beat the crack the eggs and beat them with the mixer.
  6. Add the butter and chocolate mixture and continue mixing.
  7. Slowly mix in the dry ingredients, until you get brownies batter consistency.
  8. Transfer the batter to the baking pan and bake for 15-20 minutes. Depending on the oven you have the baking time may vary. You’ll want to check the brownies from minute 15 to make sure you aren’t overbaking them. The center has to be slightly moist when touching.


NOTES:
Can you replace almond flour with coconut flour?

For this recipe and the sake of great texture, I don’t recommend using coconut flour. Coconut flour absorbs liquid very quickly and you may end up with dry keto brownies. However, I’ve got another great keto brownie recipe with coconut flour for you.
