Ingredients

½ cup almond flour

3 large eggs, room temperature

12 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

¼ cup dark cocoa powder

2 oz dark unsweetened chocolate

¾ cup erythritol (or 6 tbsp Pyrue, as used here)

½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp vanilla extract

Chopped nuts (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Melt Butter & Chocolate

In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and unsweetened chocolate together until smooth.

Stir well to combine and let cool slightly.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, and baking powder.

Set aside.

Beat Eggs

In a large bowl, beat eggs until slightly frothy.

Slowly drizzle in the melted butter-chocolate mixture while whisking continuously.

Stir in vanilla extract.

Combine Wet & Dry

Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture.

Mix gently until just combined—do not overmix, as this can affect texture.

Fold in chopped nuts if using.

Bake

Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake for 15–20 minutes, checking often.

Brownies should be set but still slightly soft in the center for fudgy texture.

Cool & Serve

Allow brownies to cool in the pan before slicing.

Cut into squares and enjoy!

Tips for Success

Check early: Keto brownies can overbake quickly; remove when edges are set but center is soft.

Room temperature eggs: Helps create a smoother batter.

Sweetener options: Erythritol works well, but monk fruit or allulose can be substituted.

Extra fudgy: Chill brownies in the fridge for an hour after baking for denser texture.

Variations

Nutty brownies: Add walnuts, pecans, or almonds for crunch.

Chocolate chip delight: Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips.

Mocha twist: Add 1 tsp instant coffee granules to the batter.

Coconut version: Sprinkle unsweetened shredded coconut on top before baking.

Serving Ideas

Dust with extra cocoa powder for a gourmet touch.

Serve warm with a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream.

Drizzle with melted sugar-free chocolate or peanut butter.

Pair with coffee or espresso for a decadent treat.

Storage

Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Refrigerator: Keeps well for up to 1 week.

Freezer: Freeze brownies for up to 2 months. Thaw before serving.
