- 3 eggs at room temperature: They help bind everything together.
- 10 tablespoons butter: Use unsalted for better control over the sweetness.
- 2 oz dark chocolate: Go for at least 70% cocoa.
- ½ cup almond flour: The base of our treats adding texture and moisture.
- ¾ cup erythritol: This sweetener keeps it keto-friendly.
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional: Adds a warm flavor note.
- ¼ cup cocoa powder: For extra chocolate intensity.
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee optional: Boosts the chocolate flavor.
- ½ tsp baking powder: To help them rise.
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Step 2: Melt the Butter and Chocolate
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and dark chocolate over low heat. Mix them until they’re smooth and silky, creating a chocolate base that your life will revolve around for the next few minutes. Remove it from the heat to cool slightly.
Step 3: Mix the Eggs and Sweetener
Step 4: Combine the Wet and Dry Ingredients
Now, pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture. Stir until combined. Next, sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and optional instant coffee.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing gently until fully incorporated.
Step 6: Bake
Slide the pan into your preheated oven. Let it bake for 20-25 minutes. The brownies are done when the edges pull away slightly from the sides, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Overbaking can lead to dry brownies, so keep an eye on the timer!
- Use Quality Ingredients: This can’t be stressed enough. The quality of chocolate and butter makes a difference in flavor.
- Room Temperature Eggs: They blend more easily and help in achieving a smooth batter.
- Don’t Overmix: Once combined, stop stirring! Overmixing can lead to dense brownies.
- Let them Cool: It’s hard, but waiting allows flavors to develop.
- Store Properly: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for longer freshness.
