๐งพ Ingredients (12 servings)
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts
๐จ๐ณ Instructions — Step by Step
- Preheat oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine coconut flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, salt, and baking powder.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil, almond milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Combine: Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix until smooth. Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if desired.
- Bake: Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Don’t overbake — brownies should remain fudgy.
- Cool & serve: Let brownies cool completely in the pan, then slice into squares and enjoy.
- Do not overbake — the brownies continue to set as they cool.
- Use room temperature eggs for smoother batter.
- Optional: sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top before baking for a gooey finish.
- Almond flour keeps brownies moist, coconut flour absorbs moisture — balance is key.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
