It’s one of those must-try recipes, because you really need to try them at least once in your life to discover how shockingly good they are!

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.

- 2 tbsp dutch cocoa or additional regular
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt

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).

Can I use Truvia?
Truvia baking blend might work. Readers have reported they didn’t have success with plain stevia.
I used an 8×8 pan, but they were very thin. I think it would help to use an even smaller pan. I’d like to try these again though because the flavor is great!
Very good. But, 25 brownies? I’m not sure if this so that it could say less than 1 carb per brownie. Its more like 3-4 for a real-sized brownie. Still good in my opinion.
Absolutely Amazing! Definitely did not make 25 brownies but good thing because I would have probably eaten them all! I used 6 packets of Stevia in the Raw instead of the erythritol and it tastes great. So excited to try out more recipes.
I am blown away by these, I had to do the math multiple times to make sure they were keto 😂 I used monkfruit sweetener instead of sugar and a bit less than it calls for. There’s no weird aftertaste and I cannot believe they are keto did I mention I CANT BELIEVE THEY ARE KETO lol I can’t wait to make these next time with lily’s chocolate chips and coconut
Thank you so much! 🙂
Hi,
I made these the other day, and they turned out yummy. I put them in the fridge overnight and they were much easier to cut. The only thing I did that wasn’t in the recipe was I added 3/4 cup of chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup white chips. This recipe I will make again. They freeze well.
Thank you for the recipe.
Your version sounds fantastic!
these are awesome. added pecans and cocao nibs. Even my wife, who is vehemently anti-keto liked them.
Thank you both so much for trying them 🙂
This is my go-to Brownie Recipe. The whole family loves them.
Thank you so much!
Great recipe. I add 1-2 tbsp vanilla, and 1-2 tbsp of pure orange essence (no carbs)- gives it a liqueur flavour. I also add pecans and half a broken up 92% cocoa el camino dark chocolate bar (5 net carbs per 1/2 bar).
Instead of the suggested sugar substitutes, I use inulin (you can buy it at the drug store), pure fibre, no carbs, good texture and stops it from getting that sickly sweet cloying taste that you can get with the sugar substitutes.
when you use inulin did you keep all the other ingredients the same except the sweetner
