Moist, chewy and fudgy on the inside with a crisp crinkle layer on the top making these the world’s BEST keto brownies. They’re rich and delicious and will satisfy your chocolate cravings with just 1 net carb per brownie! 
I’m not exaggerating when I say these are the world’s best keto brownies because they certainly are. I’ve tested this recipe over a dozen times and made loads of batches until I finally found the BEST version. These brownies are super fudgy and moist and have a crispy outside layer that melts in your mouth. They’re so good my husband and kids had no idea they were keto and liked them much better than “regular” brownies.
If you’re like me and you have no self-control, I suggest only baking a small batch or give some away because I went through batches of brownies this week because of how good they are! At just 1 net carb per brownie, They’re perfect for a midnight snack or anytime your craving something sweet or chocolatey.
How to make fudgy keto brownies:
The chocolate: I can’t stress this enough but good quality chocolate is what makes or breaks brownies. For this recipe, we will be using BOTH cocoa powder and chocolate chunks to get the perfect texture. I suggest getting the best kind of chocolate you can get your hands on. For the chocolate chunks, I prefer to use 100% dark BAKING chocolate but anywhere from 85-99% dark baking chocolate should work. I also like to add chopped up chocolate chunks or sugar-free chocolate chips into the batter to make the brownies extra fudgy. For the chocolate chips, Lilly’s sugar-free chocolate chips are perfect because they are made with stevia.
The flour: Almond flour works great for keto desserts and is my favorite option and I highly recommend sticking with it. If you’d prefer to use coconut flour, I suggest substituting 1/4 the amount of almond flour with coconut flour. For example, this recipe calls for 1/2 cup almond flour so about 2 tablespoons coconut flour should be enough.
The Sweetener: Keto sweeteners can be tricky and sometimes complicated. To keep things simple and delicious, I like to use Powdered Erythritol Sweetener. It melts well into the batter and adds the perfect amount of sweetness and moisture to the brownies. Powdered Swerve, powdered Xylitol or Lakanto Monkfruit sweetener are also good options and can be used in the recipe instead of erythritol with a 1:1 ratio.

I’m not someone who bakes cause my wife is an exceptional Baker. Tried ur keto brownie with my kids and it was simple and turned out really well. Thanks for the recipe.
Omg! Just tried these and they turned out amaaaazing. I used the monk fruit sweetener instead and only had 1/2 cup instead of 3/4. I cooled it in the fridge, but I’m not sure how to store it.
Would it work to add 2 T peanut butter to recipe? It seems like a good idea. What do you think?
I haven’t tried it with peanut butter but if you do, don’t mix it into the batter but rather swirl it on top.
Great recipe!
I didn’t have as much success with my first try but I made some tweaks on my 2nd batch and they turned out AMAZING! This is what I did in case anyone wants to try.
I used Swerve’s confectioners instead of granulated (granulated was just too crystal(y) and I really didn’t enjoy the taste.
I sifted my sugar and flour.
I used 2 eggs instead of 3 (1st batch just tasted too wet and eggy)
Instead of the full amount of butter suggested, I used 1/2 cup of butter and a sliver of cream cheese ( I also didn’t pour melted butter in the mix, just more room temp)
Added a tablespoon of melted peanut butter and lily’s choc chips
Baked as directed and then drizzled another tablespoon of peanut butter all over.
They taste so friggin good. I’ve been pretty strict lately so this was a nice indulgence. YUM YUM YUM.
Delicious!! These brownies hit the spot. I wrap them individually with plastic wrap and freeze them in a Ziploc bag. I used Monkfruit sweetner but reduced the sweetner to 1/2 cup. I will try them with chopped pecans next time. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
I tried this recipe several times. First time I used chocolate that had 100% cocoa. Second time I used 85% cocoa. Now I baked it with 72% cocoa. First and second time the brownies had a disturbingly bitter taste. This time I used less coffee too. I tasted the batter before baking and it tasted almost like the real thing. And I used three eggs and swerve confectionery sugar. Thanks
I’ve made a couple times and they are yummy but are they freezable?
You can freeze for up to 2 months!
Absolutely cannot wait to try this recipe! I get the chocolate cravings (like everyone else), and a fat bomb like these brownies should do the trick! I am going to try the recipe as is, I suspect it will be perfect. I never have understood why people want so many dietary adjustments to a specifically named recipe. These are World’s Best Keto Brownies, not World’s Best Adjust to any regimen Brownies. Why ask for adjustments to the recipe for APF, or other non-keto sweeteners, or lower fats? If the recipe does not appear to be to your specific needs or tastes, move along to another, it’s not fair to ask the creator to rewrite the recipe for possible untested substitutions that change it from its core.
What I don’t understand is why you gave it 5 stars if you haven’t made it yet? You say you can’t wait to try this recipe so what exactly are you giving stars for? The rating system isn’t for how you think it will taste.
@Cammi I had a chuckle at that too!
I made them today, with the almond flour (yikes that stuff is expensive where I live) and mine turned out well for what I was expecting. The texture is different, almond flour doesn’t seem to blend as well, but that’s a quality of things with gluten – can’t expect it of more protein-heavy nut flours.
I used black cocoa from my bulk food store because it usually is a but “dryer” cocoa, which from the comments, gooey-ness seemed to be an issue. I think that swap worked out really well.
I might add in some walnuts, choco chips & a dash of coconut next time!
Did not like this either not worth the cost of the fake sugar and almond flour
Nice try tho
Agree with the other replyer!! When you rate a recipe without actually trying the recipe, it gives an inaccurate rating for the rest of us who use that system to decide whether or not to try the recipe. DONT rate a recipe you havent tried!!!
I tried this recipe as well as the low-carb one. This came out much better! I’m not a fan of dark chocolate, so I added some heavy cream and that evened it out. But all in all these brownies are really good.
Made it earlier today! OMG they are literally perfect. I didt have almond flour so used half lupin half carbquick and of course ran out of butter used half butter and half coconut oil. I did use your suggestion for adding walnuts and Lilly’s chocolate chips. This one’s a keeper! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe 😃😋
I forgot to add …to get that chewier texture I did grind some psyllium husk (2 tbsp) and to avoid bitterness used powdered swerve and erythritol …I have a sweet tooth so after tasting the batter, I squirted some Stevia to my liking. My boys even lived it and trust me, they’re hard to please lol
I followed the recipe but used lakanto powdered sugar. I didn’t put the instant coffee, I didn’t have it. They were ok. The texture was grainy and cake like. It did have the after taste. Trying to find something that doesn’t. Not sure if I will make them again. I’m going to keep trying different recipes. Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for the feedback!
Far too much erythritol. I found they leave an unpleasant aftertaste
These are amazing!! I followed the instructions and they turn out perfect.
Hi, thanks for the recipe. Sadly, my brownies came out very dry and not fudgy. I doubled up the recipe and thought because it was still so giggly after 20 minutes of cooking that I probably needed to cook it twice as long, but was probably a mistake. It’s also too sweet for me, so next time I’ll use less Erythritol, although I’m not a fan of it. Two questions:
– I bought some Yacon syrup; do you know how much I should use to replace the Erythritol?
– How much does one brownie weigh? Because I doubled up the recipe, and I didn’t cut it into 32 equal squares, I can’t figure out how much one brownie/116 calories is in weight. I’m trying to keep track of calorie intake on my fitness pal so I need to know the weight of one brownie.
Thank you! 🙂
Do you have a kitchen scale? They are inexpensive and once I bit the bullet and bought one, end up using it a lot.
I made this recipe how it was described but my brownies came out with a bitter taste …
Any reason why maybe ?
I used a stevia/erythritol blend from the bulk food store, not 100% erythritol and it seems to not have some aftertaste that some people have.
Try it again with “Truvia?”
is there healthier replaces for butter in this recipe? what would be the measures?
You can use coconut oil! Try this recipe instead for keto brownies with coconut oil https://gimmedelicious.com/healthier-brownies/
I made these around Christmas and they were awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Can I substitute almond flour with sunflower seed flour??
These tasted absolutely brilliant, but they were cakey because I cooked them for an extra 5 min because they were very underdone. I only like fudgy brownies so I was disappointed. But we still ate them all and they were delicious. Will try again without overbaking.
Thanks for the recipe! My wife loves it so I always make one for her so she’ll have a snack whilst WFH. I usually double up the recipe but kept the sweetener into 3/4 cup and always comes out perfect. I also add a handful of walnuts and use Noshu choc bits. I stopped buying the instant low carb brownie as this still comes out cheaper.
Thanks for the feedback! so glad your wife enjoyed these brownies 🙂
This are indeed the best delicious death by chocolate treats.My husband is a Chocoholic and since we on Keto I always make fat bombs for him but not the same…I followed the recipe to the last details and it was AMAZING 😉, perfect sweetness. Like Maerose commented, I too baked them extra 5mins which resulted in a firm chocolate cake which still was absolutely melt-in-your mouth decadent topped with a hazelnut ganache & served with a dollop of cream. I will be making them again for Christmas with a twist: short of Coffee Kahlua liquor extra. Thank you 😊 for this recipe.
What size pan for a double recipe and is glass 9×13 ok?
I just finished a double batch and used a 10.5 x 14 and baked for 18 minutes and they are perfect.
The recipe can be doubled into a 9×13 pan glass or any material 🙂
Hi what’s the measurement used in this recipe? Is it US cups? Or maybe can you tell me the metric measurements to be precise and on the safe side if that’s not too much trouble? Thankss
The measurements are in US cups and can be easily converted online!
Being fairly new to keto I have been craving something chocolate and sweet when it came upon this recipe.
I followed the recipe to the letter with the one exchange of using monk fruit instead of the sweetener that was mentioned. They were delicious and rich. I didn’t think that they were done because they were jiggly, just like the recipe says, but when I put a fork in them they were definitely done so I pulled them out and set them out on the railing because it’s freezing here. LOL
They were very rich and fudgy. I made sure not to mix them too much as the recipe said they could turn out cakey.
I just made an additional pan because it’s quick and easy and delicious. Thank you!
I can’t have sugar alcohols. I can have Stevia and Monk Fruit. What would be the substitution? I have 100% Monk Fruit Powder. (Lakanto & Lilly’s say Stevia and Monkfruit but are both blended with Erythritol so not an option). Thanks – these look delicious!
You can go ahead and use Monk fruit!
I just made these, they are in the oven now! I had only Monkfruit sugar …….. I tasted the batter before baking and it is yummy. I prefer a cakier brownie so I appreciate the info and will cook them a bit longer. So nice to have a treat !
Yum, enjoy!
OMG! The best brownie everr! Much much better than any other keto recipes I’ve tried. Thank you so much ! These are going to be my all time favourites!! Perfect ❤️
So happy to hear!
I’m curious, are we supposed to use 2 eggs or 3? The video and the recipe disagree here. I want to make these as a surprise for my boyfriend who is doing keto, but I want to make sure it’s right!
It’s 3 eggs. We adjusted the recipe to make the brownies more fudgy and moist 🙂
Baked at 350 For 20 minutes and it was literally still batter, just very hot batter. And before anyone asks, yes my oven was on and properly heated.
Every oven is different. Did you cook it in a glass pan? I would just keep an eye on it until it’s cooked through.
Delectable!! Followed the recipe exactly except I used two eggs like the video shows, and I used 1 cup of Allulose for the sweetener. Fudgy and delicious! Thank you!
These look great! One question – I use keto recipes because I’m diabetic, so the low sugar aspect is great, but I prefer all-purpose flour to almond. Can it be substituted here, and if so, a) what ratio and b) would I also need to adjust the wet ingredients to make it work? Thanks!!
I’m sorry I haven’t tested this recipe with APF so I really can’t say but please do update us if you try it out!
Hi, I saw the video uses two eggs but the recipe calls for 3 eggs. Does everyone uses two or three ? Also, is this recipe gluten free ?
I used 2 eggs and it was fudgy and great!
I’m not sure what went wrong. what kind of chocolate did you use?
tasted good but on cakey sidd and some cooling in tje throat why?
Awesome brownies, I used half swerve brown Suger and half swerve. Now I’m gonna make keto cream cheese chocolate frosting!!!! Thankyou for the great recipe
I’ve noticed Erythritol tastes “cooler” than Xylitol in recipes. If you have both on hand, do taste test. I used 1/2 Erythritol and 1/2 Xylitol in this recipe and it didn’t notice that cool effect.
I made these. They were amazing. I measured and matched the ounces on the call for dark chocolate by using a sugar free semi sweet chocolate morsels to avoid adding anymore sugar or carbs. Dont overcook!
Is granular swerve ok to use or do you need to use the confectioners swerve?
It’s amazing! This was my first sugar free recipe and it was a hit!
just put it in the blender
I use the confectioners’ version.
I used granular Monk Fruit and, while the brownies are totally delicious, there is a grainy crunch from the “sugar” crystals.
Hi! Can I do without dark chocolate or substitute it with more cocoa powder? Thanks!
Made these yesterday. My family love them. They taste great and have been a real diet-saver for me, having just started keto. I have a sweet tooth and my cravings have been really bad until I tried these. They make a decadent chocolate snack. However, I just tried one chopped into small squares with three sliced strawberries and cream – so they make a HEAVENLY after-dinner dessert as well!
They were really easy to make. Easier in fact, than the regular brownies I used to make. I honestly thought keto brownies would be fussier but they came out fine. I’m from the UK, so I used Natvia sweetener (Stevia and erythritol blend) and ground almonds from Sainsbury’s.
My first keto sugar free dessert. Well second really. I have no bake cookies in the freezer. Have not eaten a cookie yet. In brownies I chopped walnuts. Satisfied my sweet craving. I’m excited about loosing weight. I have15 lbs to loose .
Very nice but mine were not chewy at all.
Would xanthan gum help the recipe stay together more?
I haven’t tested with it but it would not hurt to add 1/2 tsp if you’d like.
These were awesome and I had a group of close family here who loved them (ALL!!!) But can they be frozen or refrigerated for multiple days?
These are Amazing!!! You could easily eat them all. Be sure to ration them. They definitely fill that chocolate craving. Feels like heaven in your mouth. Yum 😋
Yes, you can keep them in the fridge then reheat in the microwave for 10 seconds as needed.
Just tried this and the brownies turned out amazingly delicious.
Maybe I’ll skip the baking powder next time as it leaves a bitter taste for me.
These are amazing! Thank you for the awesome recipe.
The picture looks amazing! However, mine came out cakey, which I don’t really like. I do not believe I stirred too much, but I may have overcooked them. I will give them another try.
I’m confused on the carbs count! The recipe says 1 net carbs, the nutrition facts say 3 carbs, and when I put it in the Recipe IQ app, it says 13 carbs per serving?!?
What are you selecting for the dark chocolate? That can have lots of carbs.
It’s one net carb which is 3 minus the 2 carbs of fiber and sugar alcohol. How many servings are you putting on the Recipe IQ? Perhaps it’s for the entire recipe?
Where do you get your dark chocolate from? Is it unsweetened?
It should be on Amazon or your local supermarket. I used unsweetened but any work fine.
Mine didn’t come out chewy. They tasted great but I’m missing that chewy texture… any suggestions on what I could be doing wrong?
THANK YOU so much for this amazing recipe! I’ve tried MANY different keto brownies and this is my absolutely favorite.. I use coconut flour instead of almond flour and add tons of chocolate chips !
How much exactly do I use of Swerve and how much do I use of Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener??(like 1/4c each?)
substitutes: replace Erythritol Sweetener with a 1:1 ratio of Powdered Swerve, powdered Xylitol or Lakanto Monkfruit sweetener.
So are you doing the same total 3/4 C total composed of 1:1 swerve and monkfruit?
To Shilo and Jessica: 1 to 1 ratio (1:1) means any of these other sugar substitutes can be used in place of the Erythritol Sweetener, in exactly the same measurement. So if the recipe calls for 3/4 cup of Erythritol, then use 3/4 cup of Swerve OR Xylitol OR monkfruit sweetener, whichever one you choose.
Hello! I have been only 2 weeks in Keto and I was craving for chocolate! This recipe is really good. I substitute the sugar for coconut sugar and didn’t add the coffee because I didn’t had those ingredients, and it was amazing!
Coconut sugar is not keto
Impressive recipe. Thank you! Great texture and flavor. BF says it would pass for a regular brownie and I agree!! Will make this regularly in the future.
I made these and followed the recipe to the T. The consistency was amazing! But I was shocked at some of the comments saying it was too sweet? I found the brownies to be bitter, almost too bitter to consider enjoyable. I used 100% bakers chocolate and added chocolate chips. I used the full amount of sweetener. I’m still fairly new to keto so not sure if this is what “sweet” is supposed to taste like.
If you’re not used to dark chocolate, you may find it bitter in the beginning, it depends what chocolate you use.
On Keto you’ll naturally eat less sweet foods and after a while even a small amount of sweetener can be too much for some.
The best Keto brownie so far. I like that they’re fudgy and not cake like. Thank you for a great recipe. They’re yummy with peanut butter spread on top!
Can you freeze ? And just warm a few seconds in microwave when wanting to eat ?
Puedo usar azucar de coco para esta receta ?
Azucar de coco no es keto 🙂
This is the best recipe I have found so far. I always read the comments to see how other people have made substitutions or adjustments. So, I’m going to share my third batch adjustments here which are even richer and more chocolatey. I also had to scale up for a 9×9 pan. If I had a blog, I’d post my recipe there, but I don’t.
50g almond flour
50g finely ground cocoa nibs (Crio Brew left over and dried grounds regroups in a coffee grinder)
3/4 tsp calcium carbonate (to counter Oxalates)
1 tsp baking powder
36g King Arthur Triple Cocoa Blend
1 Tb collagen hydrolysate (optional)
200g powdered sweeteners (2 Tb allulose, then half Lakanto baking blend and Swerve confectioners)
16 Tb Irish butter/coconut oil
80g Lily semi-Sweet (newer) baking chips melted with the butter and cocoa
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp powdered espresso (to boost chocolate flavor)
4 lg Eggs
+110g lily semi-sweet chips
+28g pecan pieces
Baked in a 9×9 USA Pan With Wilton bake-even strips around the pan for 30 minutes.
I never could have done it without your awesome recipe as the starting point. My motivation was to find a way to use my brewed cocoa nibs grounds which have more flavor than almond flour.
Thanks for the detailed feedback, Sara! They are super helpful and will be sure to try them next time <3
I don’t have powdered swerve in hand. Only granular. Would that still work?
Put it in the blender and it’ll turn powdered
I have to say I used granular swerve and worked great.
Hi,
I know that these are meant to be keto brownies which is usually what I would eat but I’m interested in making a version for my daughter and I don’t want to use alternative sweeteners. Do you think I could substitute coconut sugar for the sweetener in this case?
Can’t wait to try ‘cos it looks absolutely amazing but need to know if I can use hazelnut flour instead of almond and what quantity? same as almond flour? Thanks in advance 🙂
I have often swapped out hazelnut for almond flour in equal amounts. It works fine.
When replacing the 1/2 cup almond flour with coconut, we would then only use 2 tbsp of coconut flour? This seems very low
Substituting coconut flour is an entirely different recipe since you will need to adjust liquid and eggs. You just can’t do that as a straight substitute.
Coconut flour absorbs 4x the liquid as almond flour and it should work! 🙂
Keto lifestyle and I love brownies when I say this is the best recipe I’ve ever tasted while on keto OMG!! I’ve had other brownie recipes but nothing beats this one I also added 1/4 cup of walnuts And I mixed Half xylitol and half monk fruit for 3/4 cup of sugar substitutes. The batter was even good I couldn’t stop licking the bowl. THANK YOU
I’ve made these twice. The first time, I used 1/2 cup powdered Swerve and 2 oz of 85% dark chocolate in the mix. The results were okay. Today, I made the recipe again with 3/4 cup powdered Swerve, 2 oz of 85% dark chocolate melted into the mix and 2 oz of 70% dark chocolate crumbled up on top before popping it into the oven. The results this second time were absolutely spectacular! Thanks for the great recipe! Hands down these are the best Keto brownies I’ve tried.
I’m relatively new to the Keto diet and this is the first Keto Dessert I’ve made. I followed the recipe for the most part except I only used about half a cup of sweetener and I didn’t include the chocolate since I didn’t have any available. I used a bit of extra butter and a table spoon or so of whipping cream to compensate for the melted chocolate. I also used Krisda Monkfruit/erythritol sweetener and the brownies came out tasting pretty good! I don’t think anything really compares to good old white sugar but this was definitely a good substitution to satisfy a sweet tooth.
Try adding a tablespoon or two of allulose if you miss sugar. It makes things sticky and sweet in the same way and so far in all my recipes, it eliminates the Crystal crunchiness that develops days later from using erythritol.
Okay making these right now I am following the recipe except I help back a little on the sweetener , I must say they smell exactly like sugar filled brownies.
Can’t wait to try them all the other brownie recipes for keto I have tried have been lack luster.
For someone who has never even tried baking brownies, this is the most perfect brownies I have ever tasted. Though it’s quite sweet, as I used xylitol , will reduce xylitol quantity next time.
The butter measurement is quite confusing in tablespoon, was t sure wether to level the tablespoon so I melted the butter and used the 1/2cup measurement.
My brownies are soooooo delicious. Thank you Layla
A stick of butter is 8 tablespoons.
Thanks so much for posting! I’m going to try them tonight. Should I use 2 or 3 eggs?
Can you share the measurements in metric? I tried your recipe with referencing All Recipes’ guideline on cups to gms but i don’t think it is right… mine came out like choc cake. Still nice but it isn’t brownie.
AWESOME Keto brownies ever!!! Really loved it. Next time I might use slightly less than that 3/4 cup sweetener (was a bit too sweet). However, its got such good texture and taste. I also loved the coffee flacor coming through. Thanks a lot for the recipe!!
I used 1/2 cup erythritol and it was still too sweet and tasted funny. I might substitute even half that with fruit sweetened jam.
On d video i saw 2 eggs only.. But on your listed recipe is 3.
Omg, finally a keto brownie that is even better than it’s non- keto rival!!
Really the best brownie yet!
I used powdered swerve and omitted the coffee.
Thanks for this- keep ‘em coming!
B Joiner
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the brownies 🙂
I came across this recipe as I was desperately trying to fix a problem. I was attempting to make fat bombs and mistakenly added almond flour to chocolate instead of swerve. Yikes!! Sooo I calculated what I has already used and finished recipe. Turned out great! I may have over baked a bit but now I know what to expect. I’m brand new to Keto and am learning lots! Still delicious and satisfying-also added walnuts. Thanks!!
Sorry forgot to include star rating 🙂
Thanks for the feedback and for your review!! 🙂
Thank you for a fantastic recipe! I left out the instant coffee because I didn’t have any (must buy) and doubled the vanilla. I used Lakanto Chocolate Chips for the 2oz dark chocolate. I followed the recipe exactly except I added 1/2 tsp xanthan gum and also some extra Lakanto Chocolate Chips at the end for even more chocolate. I don’t have an 8×8 pan, only 9.5×9.5, and I didn’t want them to be too thin so I made them in my loaf pan and needed to bake them longer (about 45 minutes total). I let them cool about an hour before try one and they were insanely delicious, something between a brownie and a cake texture but very very moist. After a night in the fridge they have the perfect chewy brownie texture. I’ve been keto for over a year now and bake all the time; this is one of the best recipes I’ve tried. You could feed these to non keto people without mentioning that they are keto and they would just enjoy eating them. My husband says this is the best keto item I’ve made!
I just made these, did a little adjustment because I didnt have the dark chocolate, so I added an addl. 2 tablespoons with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil for the exchange, they turned out perfect, I also used Truvia for the sugar substitute, moist and delicious. Thanks for the idea.
I’m at a complete loss on your ingredient measurements. 0.06 cup of flour? And what is 0.38 eggs?
It looks like you accidentally switched the swerving size to 2 which adjuted the ingredients to that need. Please try switching the serving to 16 brownies in order to make the whole batch! 🙂
Hi, thank you for the recipe. I just have One question about the oven, do you use a conventional fan-assisted Oven or convention NON- fan assisted Oven? Thank you again.
Hi,
Can avocado be substituted for any quantity of the butter in this recipe?
I haven’t tried substituting avocado so I can’t say without further recipe testing, but if you decide to please let us know how it works out! 🙂
We’ve made these brownies twice, first time we followed the recipe exactly. The brownies were moist but a little too sweet for our liking, with an Erythritol after taste. The second time we cut the Erythritol back to a 1/2 cup with the chocolate flavor really coming through and no Erythritol after taste.
Can you substitute coconut oil for the butter?
Yes, it works!
Yes, it should work!
Amazing. Will make over and over…
Is it 2 or 3 egg? Video shows only 2.
What is the best chocolate to use? Sugar free
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe! I’m a sweet enthusiast and was looking for a recipe that was great for keto dieters and diabetics and this tastes very good. It’s not sweet (Of course), but savory. I used the cocoa powder and butter substitute for the chocolate. What’s great about this recipe is that you can cook it as brownie or cake (Just let it sit longer in oven). I think the vanilla is necessary to counter the bitterness of chocolate – I added 1 tsp.
The butter doesn’t make sense. Why not say 12 tbsp butter plus half cup
There are 10 tablespoons total or 1/2 cup (8 Tbsp) plus 2 tablespoons
I agree, the butter measurement was a little confusing. I didn’t realize until it was too late that they weren’t supposed to be separated. I thought the 2 tablespoons was to grease the pan. Now my brownies are dry 🙁
Omg these are so good ❤️
I made them delicious loved them but I was quite alarmed when I pin in keto brownie in my keto app and it says very high carb
Read. Carbs. 2 per. Shhhh.
Your app is most likely counting sugar alcohols I stead of reflecting the net carbs that would affect your blood glucose.
Would these brownies freeze
Made exactly as directed. Absolutely delicious!
I tried these once and loved them. Wondering if I could use Peanut butter instead of regular butter to create a chocolate/peanut butter brownie?
Can we use stevia powder instead of erythritol ?
How much shud i replace ?
I do not recommend stevia because it is super sweet and has a really bad after taste.
Good and easy. I like simple.
Mine turned out a little cakier than I’d like, though, so I’m trying to figure out where I went wrong. I’m thinking it’s either from sifting the dry ingredients, or over-whisking.
The chocolate seized up faster than I expected, too, so there’s that. I might try a double boiler whisking next time. I might also try a cheesecake swirl brownie.
Thank you for posting a simple and delicious brownie recipe.
I put the microwave at 50% power for 1 minute and stirred it half way through. It was perfect.
Add an extra 2 tablespoons of butter.
If i don’t have dark CHOCOLATE on hand, could i just put more butter and extra cocoa powder?
Yes, you can go ahead and replace the 2 oz of dark chocolate with 6 tablespoons cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons butter.
What coca powder do you use for this .
I tried this recipe and loved it. how should i store these brownies in warm season? will it keep well for 2 days at room temperature?
I would store up to 2 days at room temp and in the fridge to keep them fresh! Just re-heat for a few sounds in the microwave for a gooey texture.
Awesome brownies but i’ve found that you need to double any of these recipes to make them look like pictures!
Best brOwnie!
I trued other recipes on line buf this is the best one!
These are the best keto brownies I have made – and may I say I feel like have tried every Keto brownie out there! These are moist, fudgy, easy to make, and after refrigerating them they hold together well. My non-Keto husband asks for them almost every week! I do leave out the instant coffee, but that’s only because we don’t care for the coffee taste in anything. thank you, thank you for this website! I’ve been on keto for 2 years and somehow only found you about 2 months ago. I am deligted with everything I see! Yummy days ahead!
I tried the exact recipe and baking time should be atleast 30 minutes insted of 20 mins. Also sugar content needs to be reduced unless someone is fond of like super sweet one. Overall it came out very well. I used 7spoons of butter and there was no fat seen as top layer on brownies
Mine were so dry I could hardly choke it down. I baked them for 20 minutes so I know they were overbaked. The flavor was pretty good. I think I’ll try to make keto ice cream and put it on top. Any thoughts as to what happened.
The results vary depending on the sweetener you use and the baking temperature. What sweetener and size pan did you use?
These are still cooling in the fridge. I did take a bite of them initially though, and they are waaaaay sweeter than I was expecting. They also seemed quite cakey. I’m wondering if that’s because I used three eggs? The instructions higher up say 2 eggs, but the recipe itself says 2 eggs.
They have cooled and these are not cakey at all anymore. I would say the texture is like a light fudge. Perhaps the texture I really want can only be achieved with actual flour – could be a possibility. They still don’t look anything like the images though, which imply a certain texture I was really hoping for..
Fantastic recipe, loved them, but does anyone know if you can freeze them as they went mouldy before I could eat them all, and I want to make some more today.
sorry about the caps – can’t turn off
I ALWAYS FRIDGE ALL MY KETO DESSERTS AND THAT MAKES THEM LAST.
hi the recipe box says 3 eggs the video shows two going in any clarification
Absolutely delicious! Especially if you have been refraining from sugar and sweets. The last time I tried to eat a sweet it tasted horrible because the “sweet” was over powering. However these are just the right chocolatey sweet. So freaking tasty and hit the spot. Mine turned into a cake consistency but I wasn’t disappointed. Thanks for the chocolate fix!!
I don’t know why it is typing in all caps, but i swear i’m not yelling! 🙂
My brownies didn’t look like the photo, but they were pretty good. Best keto brownie recipe I’ve made so far. I mixed mine pretty well to make sure the erythritol and fat emulsified, then spread the batter into a parchment lined pan. Past keto brownies I’ve tried have had the fat separate out and baked into a greasy brick. These did not! I also baked mine for about 30 min then put them in the fridge immediately. They had a fudge-like texture but were also a little crumbly. I think next time I will use dark chocolate cocoa powder instead of the raw cacao powder I had on hand.
The system sometimes makes the comments all caps lock but they end up outputting normal, so you’re all good. Thanks for the feedback!
Love these brownies.
Thanks for the review!
Sooooooo good! Used POWDEREd swerve – unfortunately it began to reCrystalize next daY. Otherwise these were fantastIc.
OH MY GOD. IVE BEEN VERY STRICTLY KETO FOR ABOUT YEAR NOW AND HAVE RECENTLY STARTED HAVING A REALLY BAD CRAVING FOR BAKED GOODS. GAVE THIS RECIPE A TRY AND ON THE FIRST GO IT WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. GREAT TEXTURE AND RICH CHOCOLATE FLAVOR. I USED LILY’S DARK CHOCOLATE (KETO) CHIPS, AS THE CHOCOLATE AND THEN SPRINKLED ANOTHER SMALL HAND FULL ON TOP. I THOUGHT I’D UNDER BAKE IT A BIT SO THAT IT WOULD BE GOOEY INSIDE..I ENDED UP BAKING THE ENTIRE 20 MINUTES AND IT CAME OUT PERFECTLY GOOEY. THIS RECIPE IS PERFECT AS IS, HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
So glad you enjoyed the brownies, Sarah! Thanks for stopping by <3
It came out more like a cake and not very chocolatey. And you could barel taste any sweet to it.
