Ingredients
1/2 cup salted butter
4 oz sugar-free chocolate (chips or baking chocolate)
1 cup blanched almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (sifted)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup allulose (or preferred low-carb sweetener)
2 large eggs (room temperature)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup additional sugar-free chocolate (chips or chunks)
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring overhang for easy removal.
-
Melt Butter and Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and half of the sugar-free chocolate. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
-
Whisk Eggs: Beat the eggs in a separate large bowl until frothy. Gradually stir in the melted butter and chocolate mixture.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the almond flour, sifted cocoa powder, baking powder, and allulose to the wet ingredients. Stir until well-combined.
-
Add Remaining Chocolate: Fold in the remaining sugar-free chocolate chips or chunks.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 14-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Cool: Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 20 minutes. Use the parchment paper to lift them onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
-
Nut-Free Option: Replace almond flour with sunflower seed flour for a nut-free version.
-
Dairy-Free Version: Substitute butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free treat (may result in greasier edges).
-
Flavor Add-Ins: Add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans, or swirl in some peanut butter for extra flavor.
