Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup blanched almond flour (finely ground)
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch-process or natural)
  • 1/2 cup granulated erythritol or a monk fruit–erythritol blend (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (for a smoother texture; optional but recommended)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled (or refined coconut oil for dairy-free)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ounces sugar-free dark chocolate, melted (plus extra chopped for mix-ins, optional)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (as needed for consistency)

Method
 

  1. Prep the pan and oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy lifting. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. Combine dry ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, granulated sweetener, powdered sweetener, baking powder, and salt until no clumps remain.
  3. Mix wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the melted sugar-free chocolate until glossy.
  4. Bring it together. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until just combined. If the batter looks very thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of almond milk to loosen it slightly. The batter should be thick but spreadable.
  5. Add mix-ins (optional). Fold in a handful of chopped sugar-free chocolate or keto-friendly chocolate chips for extra pockets of chocolate.
  6. Spread and smooth. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. For a shiny top, lightly swirl the surface with the back of a spoon.
  7. Bake. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center looks just slightly underdone. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  8. Cool fully. Let the brownies cool in the pan on a rack for at least 30–45 minutes. Use the parchment to lift them out, then slice with a sharp knife, wiping the blade between cuts for clean squares.
