Almond Flour Brownie Variations
Feel free to stir a handful of chopped pecans, almonds, or walnuts into the batter.
Or throw in some shredded coconut, cacao nibs, or chocolate chips.
The brownies are perfectly sweet enough to serve on their own, but if you want keto brownies with frosting, I love this Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe.
Easy Low Carb Brownies
To come up with this recipe, I simply adapted my keto chocolate cake into brownies.
Since I know brownies have more fat, less flour, and less leavening than cake, I changed the ingredient proportions accordingly.
The first try wasn’t perfect, but recipe experiments are seldom perfect on the first try, and I quite enjoyed eating the fall-apart-gooey flourless homemade brownie rejects.

Keto Brownie Ingredients
Instead of regular flour, these brownies use fine almond meal or almond flour (ground-up almonds), making them both flourless and gluten free.
If you can find dutch cocoa powder, I highly recommend using it here when called for, because that’s the type of cocoa typically used in boxed brownie mixes, so it’s what will make these taste the most authentic.
Most regular grocery stores should sell it – look for the words “processed with alkali” on the ingredient list, and that’s the type to use. (Regular unsweetened cocoa powder should be used for the initial 1/4 cup in the recipe.)
The moist chocolate brownies can be made with either regular sugar (for non keto) or granulated erythritol. If making them keto, be sure to buy granulated erythritol, not powdered. Or for paleo brownies, you can also use coconut sugar.
While I haven’t tried the recipe with allulose or stevia, feel free to experiment with a granulated stevia blend if you wish, and be sure to report back for other readers if you do.

Keto Brownies
Ingredients
- 1 cup fine almond flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp dutch cocoa or additional regular
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or butter
- 3 tbsp water or additional oil
- 2 eggs, or 2 flax eggs
- 2/3 cup granulated erythritol or regular sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- *If you're a visual learner, feel free to watch the keto brownie recipe video posted above!Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease an 8-inch pan, or line with parchment. Mix all ingredients well. Spread evenly into the pan. Smooth down, using a second sheet of parchment if needed. Bake 20 minutes on the center rack, then let cool completely and they will continue to firm up. They also firm up even more if you refrigerate very loosely covered overnight. The brownies are delicious with or without frosting (for the photos, I used the keto chocolate frosting recipe linked above in this post).

Hi! Is there yogurt in the keto brownie ingredient? I can’t find where you put it and how much. I read the comments and people talking about it so I ‘m wondering
Is this recipe is supposed to make 24 brownies??? The nutrition facts is for 24 right? So do you just cut them bite size? I always thought an 8in pan made 9 brownies?? Thank you!
Hi! They are denser than regular brownies – almost fudge like – so Katie sometimes cuts them small like you would cut fudge before serving at parties. But even if you do 9 brownies, it’s still under 150 calories per brownie 🙂
Has anyone tried these using the flax egg option? I have done it with real egg and love it! But my daughter has an egg allergy and I rarely have good luck making treats that are keto AND egg free. Does this recipe work well with the flax option?
So good! Everyone loves them even who isn’t doing keto! Thanks so much for the easy recipe 🙂
hi! i was wondering if you can use avocado oil instead of butter??
Hi, I would guess it would be okay but we haven’t tried so can’t say for sure. Be sure to report back if you try!
This is a delicious recipe! I used 1/3 cup granulated sucralose because it’s what’s available in the house.
These are great keto friendly brownies and I love making these when I need a quick brownie/chocolate fix. One comment though the serving size seems way off. There’s no way you can have 25 brownies out of this recipe. Maybe 12-15? Just an observation.
They are small but you can cut 5 rows by 5 rows which yields 25, about 1.5″ pieces.
I read through the comments and didn’t see anyone ask—- can this be made with a monk fruit/Erythritol Blend? The lankato brand specifically. Thanks!
Yes!
I made these and they were amazing! Was nervous about making them as I have tried a Keto brownie recipe before and they were awful. I added dark chocolate chips to the batter and topped with chopped hazelnut and oh my I think this will be my go to recipe!
So, I’ve made keto chocolate chip cookies a few times before trying this brownie recipe (not from this blog) and they were good but you could tell that they were different from a normal homemade cookie. They had a slightly bitter taste from the Swerve which I just thought was normal for keto sweets. BUT NOT THESE. I am absolutely blown away by the simplicity of this recipe while also achieving the perfect taste and texture of regular homemade brownies. I also added Lily’s dark chocolate chips into my batch and they turned out great. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe!
Thank you so much for making them 🙂
