Get It NowIf you like keto brownies and keto magic cookie bars, you have to try these almond flour keto blondies! They have the texture of a brownie, but with a rich, buttery brown sugar flavor — and you can make them in just half an hour. It’s one of my favorite low carb desserts!
Not all almond flour blondie recipes are low in carbs, but you can be sure this one is. Here I used a delicious blend of Besti Brown Monk Fruit Allulose Blend and Wholesome Yum Almond Flour to create a rich, caramelized taste and fudgy texture, all with no added sugar.

Ingredients & Substitutions
Here I explain the best ingredients for this keto blondies almond flour recipe, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card.
- Besti Brown Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – Unlike other brown sugar substitutes (most of which contain erythritol), this sweetener has the same flavor and moisture as brown sugar, caramelizes like brown sugar, and won’t crystallize. Other brands may yield dry results.
- Butter – I prefer unsalted butter over salted butter because it allows me to control the salt, but if needed, you can omit the salt and use salted butter instead.
- Eggs – Use whole, large eggs. I haven’t tried substituting flax eggs, but they might work.
- Vanilla Extract – I like this brand for the best flavor.
- Wholesome Yum Almond Flour – This high-quality flour is blanched and has the finest grind out there, so your low carb blondies won’t end up gritty or grainy. Do not substitute coconut flour, which will be too dry. Sunflower seed flour might work as a nut-free substitute if needed, but the texture will be more coarse.
- Baking Powder – Make sure to use baking powder, not baking soda.
- Sea Salt – Balances the sweetness.
- Walnuts – These add a welcome crunch to all the chewiness, but are optional. Other keto nuts, like pecans or hazelnuts, and even a handful of sugar-free chocolate chips give keto blondies a new twist.
How To Make Keto Blondies With Almond Flour
This section shows how to make this healthy keto blondie recipe, including step-by-step photos and details about the technique, to help you visualize it. For full instructions with amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card.
- Cream butter and Besti Brown. Use a hand mixer to beat together the butter and Besti Brown Monk Fruit Allulose Blend.
- Add eggs and vanilla. Beat in until mostly smooth.
- Beat in dry ingredients. Add in the Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
- Add nuts. Fold chopped walnuts into the mixture with a spatula.
- Transfer. Add batter to a square baking pan (this one is the perfect size). Smooth out the top.
- Bake. Bake keto blondies until they are golden brown, but still a little gooey inside (see tips below).

Tips For The Best Almond Flour Blondies
These tips will help you achieve perfect keto blondies with a light, fluffy texture that have clean, straight lines:
- Start with room temperature ingredients. Butter won’t cream properly if it’s not softened, and cold eggs can solidify fluffy butter, so you want both at room temperature.
- Keep the mixer at low to medium speed. Turning it up too high will introduce too many air bubbles, which will compromise the fudgy texture we want.
- Don’t overbake. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a little bit of batter on it — not completely dry or wet. This means they will stay fudgy once cooled.
- Cool completely. Warm blondies are tempting, but they will fall apart and won’t have the proper texture if you slice them too soon. Cooling allows them to fully set. (You can always warm them up after slicing if you like.)
- Slice straight down. Slice blondies in a straight down motion instead of dragging or see-sawing the knife. Wipe off the knife between cuts since the gooey insides tend to stick to the knife.
Storage Instructions
- Store: Low carb keto blondies are best up to 4 days after cutting them, kept in a covered container in a single layer. Avoid placing them in the refrigerator, as this will dry them out.
- Freeze: Sugar-free blondies freeze beautifully! Wrap them in plastic wrap (or foil) and keep in a zip lock bag in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw on the counter before serving.

1My first attempt at keto blondies, great tips and easy recipe. Turned out light and fluffy. Have been eating them with some yoghurt and berries. Delicious.
Emma
0Can you use honey instead of the sweetener, if so how much please? Also can you use bicarbonate of soda instead of baking powder?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Emma, No, sorry, this would require other changes to the recipe since one is liquid and the other is dry. If you want to replace the baking powder with baking soda, you’d also need to add cream of tartar for the reaction to work.
Donna Flight
0I prepared the recipe as written. I added sugar free chocolate chips and peanut butter chips. They turned out great.
Wholesome Yum D
0Thanks, Donna! Those chocolate and peanut butter chips sound like such a tasty addition, so glad they turned out great!
Amy
0I love these, very tasty! I used coconut oil instead of butter and added ChocZero chocolate chips. The chocolate chips sunk to the bottom and made it a two-layer dessert with the chocolate on the bottom, but, oh, so tasty! Will definitely make these again!
Wholesome Yum D
0hat sounds so good, Amy! Even with the chocolate on the bottom, it sounds like a happy accident. So glad you’ll be making them again!
Kelli
0Can ghee be used in this recipe or any other recipe that calls for butter?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Kelli, The texture will be a bit different, but yes, you can use ghee in this recipe. For other recipes, it depends on the purpose of the butter and how it’s used. Feel free to ask on any of my other recipes! And let me know how you like this one.
Amy
0Another winner from Wholesome Yum! I left out the walnuts and added a combination of sugar free white and milk chocolate.
The Besti Brown Monk Fruit Allulose blend is really a key ingredient in these blondies.
Delicious.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Awww, thanks, Amy! I’m so glad you enjoyed them.
Kimberly Sharifi
0I made these yesterday and they were fantastic! I did add a 1/4 cup sugar free white chocolate chips and I seriously think these are better than brownies. Never thought I would eat something this yummy again. Thank you Maya!
Leslie
0Do you have a “best substitution” for the brown monkfruit? It is currently unavailable…
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Leslie, Besti Brown is in stock here. I haven’t found a good substitute unfortunately.
Jen
0These are so tasty!! I loved them!
Journa Liz Ramirez
0This recipe is amazing! It’s easy to make and my family loves it so much. Would love to try it again.
jess
0Wow! this recipe was just as good as it is easy to make! thank you for sharing some amazing keto recipes and allowing me to enjoy some desserts again!
Debra Hickman
0I tried this recipe but I did not have the sweetener recommended. I used organic powdered sugar, coconut oil, and another sweetener brand. For me and my son, it tastes really good!??♀️ I also use almonds and dried berries.
Ashley
0Sooo good! Oh my goodness this is my new favorite dessert! I shared this with my non-keto family and they loved it, as well! Moist and fluffy, sweet and savory with that Leto brown sugar ? Easy, easy prep and I can’t ever eat just one ? Thank goodness they’re less than 2 nc each! I will definitely be making these babies again!
Cindy Gamble
0Sooo DELICIOUS ! Easy to prep and hard to eat just one serving 😉 I added a few dark chocolate chips on top! Yummy! Going into my favorite section:)!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Roberta, I try to offer substitutions whenever possible, but sometimes there isn’t a good substitute and often this is a reason that we created our products in the first place, to fill a gap for what is available out there. I’d love to be able to ship around the world, but food has strict regulations in each country and getting product to each country in an affordable way to customers is difficult as well. We’re trying the best we can! Feel free to sign up here to be notified when it’s available in your area.
Jennifer Coulter
0There was a HUGE problem….they were so good that it was nearly impossible to eat just one 2X2 square. My solution was to “track” in an app before any other meals for the day. They were very easy to make and very tasty. Just ordered another (3) bags of the Besti Brown sugar to make these again. Next time, I will freeze part of these right out from the start so I can spread them out.
Roberta
0As we european are cut off 🙁 your sweetener isn’t avaible here. Quite frustrating following you, seeing your recipes and just “look but do not touch”. Hope you’ll find some suggestion to try to obtain something similar even if the first choice remains your sweetener: surely being you that expert you can elaborate a kind of strategy to help us feeling satisfied too…
Helene
0I made these “blondies” because I prefer the “butterscotch” flavor to the chocolate ones. I did add in a little caramel extract and I cut the bars into 32 pieces because I like 2 little ones to one regular ones. I get to savor them longer!
I plan to add in the sugar-free white chocolate chips in place of the nut and, I am planning to try the Lily’s butterscotch chips next.
Ofonmbuk
0They look nice. Is there a replacement for Besti brown?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Sorry, no, there isn’t. This is explained in the post above.
Deb
0Being new to Keto cooking, I had monk fruit sweetener, but not the Besti Brown. However, I have coconut sugar, which we often use instead of brown sugar. I read that coconut sugar can be used in equal proportion to sugar (cup for cup), so I tried this recipe exactly as written, only I used 3/4 cup coconut sugar, and the blondies turned out pretty good. My husband said they’re a keeper!
Gloria
0Hi – when will you be shipping to Canada? I so want to try your sweetners.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Gloria, Wholesome Yum products are now available in Canada!
Mk
0Is it possible to make these in a different size pan? I have a loaf pan and a 9×13
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Yes. You can cut the recipe in half to make it in a loaf pan, or can multiply it by 2 to make it in a 9×13 pan.
Patty
0These blondies are amazing!
Charla
0Ive been looking for a low carb version of blondies. I’m so glad to found these and they are freezer friendly too.
Erika
0I love these blondies.

Cathleen
0Wow, no way is this keto! I am always trying to find good looking recipes to make for my friend who is keto. Thank you so much for the recipe 🙂
