Ingredients List

Here’s what you need to make delicious Keto Brownies:

  • 1 cup (100g) almond flour
  • ½ cup (45g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup (100g) erythritol or keto sweetener
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup (115g) melted butter (or coconut oil)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup (40g) sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a small baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, add almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. This gives your Keto Brownies a smooth chocolate base.

Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients

Add eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until you get a thick brownie batter. Don’t overmix.

Step 4: Add Chocolate Chips (Optional)

If you like extra chocolate, fold in sugar-free chocolate chips.

Step 5: Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared tray. Spread evenly. Bake for 18–22 minutes.

Step 6: Cool Before Cutting

Let the brownies cool completely. This helps them set and become fudgy.

Now your Keto Brownies are ready to enjoy!
