Print RecipeIngredients
- ½ cup of almond flour
- ¼ cup of cocoa powder
- 3 medium free-range eggs
- 3.5 oz of dark chocolate, 70%+ cocoa solids, broken into pieces
- 10 tablespoons of unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup of erythritol powder
- 1 teaspoon of espresso powder
- ½ teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of natural vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. As your oven warms up, line a nine-inch by a nine-inch baking pan with parchment. Grease lightly with a little butter.
- Place the softened butter and chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Rest the bowl on a pan of hot water until the butter and chocolate melt. Alternatively, place the bowl in your microwave and nuke for 30 seconds. Stir until the butter and chocolate are thoroughly mixed.
- Place the dry ingredients (the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, espresso powder, and baking powder) in another bowl and mix until they are fully combined.
- Next, crack the eggs into a third bowl and beat them for 30 seconds. Add the eggs to the chocolate/butter mixture and continue mixing until smooth.
- Pour the egg, butter, and chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients. Fold everything together until well-mixed. Do not beat the mixture as this will make your brownies too light and less fudgy.
- Finally, slowly pour brownie batter into your pan and spread evenly with the back of a spoon. Do not press down or your brownies will turn into cookies!
- Bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until the top starts to go crispy. Avoid overcooking, or you’ll lose that delicious, moist center. Allow to cool for 15 minutes and then cut it into 16 squares. Store in an airtight container and in the fridge for up to a week.
