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.

- 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

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 Katie!
This recipe looks delicious.
I just wanted to ask if I can use Stevia instead of Erythritol.
If yes, how much powdered Stevia should I use?
Thank you!
I just made it with monk fruit sweetener! Amazing, no after taste
I was wondering about this! Did you use the Lakanto brand?
Is my go to brownie recipe and I love it! Thank you so much Katie
I don’t have an “8 inch brownie pan” just a metal muffin pan, 9×13 inch Pyrex glass pan, and a Lovenware glass loaf pan. Would any of these work for this recipe? I am new to baking and didn’t realize how many different pans there are to spend money on!
Any ideas o.my how many carbs per slice?
Hi, Katie provides full nutrition facts for all her recipes linked right under the ingredients/instructions 🙂
For all the complaints regarding the serving size……just cut the pan into 12 servings and double the nutritional info. Still only 3.2 carbs per serving.
I made today with stevia and they did not rise a lot very thin have not eaten yet but batter was good and so is the frosting.
Mine didn’t come out as thick as the ones in the photo; was I supposed to double the recipe for an 8″ square pan?
Has anyone tried to double this recipe into a 9×13 pan? Does it cook evenly?
These are great brownies! The only thing I would change is the sweetness. I only did half a cup of erythritol instead of 2/3 of a cup and that was even a little sweet for me. I would only do 1/3 of a cup next time.
I also only did 1/2 cup of erythritol as well as the frosting. On the frosting I used 1/2 of the cocoa, 2 oz of Lily’s sugar free chocolate chips and a couple of squirts of Pyure liquid stevia extract. They are plenty sweet for me and my hubby approved. Has anyone frozen these? Trying to only eat one piece a day
