Keto Chocolate Brownies
These indulgent keto chocolate brownies are gluten-free, sugar-free, and come together in one bowl! They're the perfect sweet treat for a low-carb diet.
Ingredients
Wet ingredients:
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon flax meal or flax powder
Dry ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup Stevia
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F (180°C) and line a 9-inch square baking tin with baking paper. Grease the sides of the pan with butter and set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the water, oil, yogurt, vanilla extract, and flax meal. Leave to stand for 15 minutes to allow the flax meal to start reacting and binding everything together.
- Once the mixture has started to thicken after 15 minutes, add in the coconut flour, cocoa powder, stevia, baking soda, and salt and mix until fully incorporated.
- Then add in the chocolate chips and walnuts and fold them in gently.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking tin and spread the dough evenly throughout the pan. Press in some extra chocolate chips into the top of the brownies.
- Bake for 15 - 18 minutes until almost set, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow them to completely set and firm up. Allowing the brownies to set in the refrigerator makes them delicious and fudgy.
Notes
Recipe will yield 9 square brownies.
For fudgy, gooey brownies, let them cool and set in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Right after baking, they will be dry and crumbly, so it's best to give them time to set.
You can use any brand of sugar-free chocolate chips that you prefer, although a variety that can melt slightly will work best.
The walnuts can be substituted for any other nuts you may prefer.
For extra chewy and fudgy brownies, shorten the baking time. For brownies with a more cakey texture, leave them in the oven a bit longer.
Brownies can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
