Some people might say you can’t go wrong with brownies, but I think you can. In my book, they need to be super fudgy… which is why I’ve been working on these fudgy keto brownies with almond flour for a really long time. And after more than half a dozen trials, I’m pretty sure this is the best keto brownies recipe you’ll find anywhere!
If you’re a brownie lover like me, you might want to try my other low carb almond butter brownies, too. But I have to admit, the keto brownie recipe I’m sharing below is my absolute fave!
Tips For How To Make Keto Brownies with Almond Flour
I did tons and tons of testing to bring you the best keto brownies recipe! And, I want to share my discoveries with you. If you want to make sure your keto brownies are suuuper fudgy, follow these tips!
Use plenty of fat.
Just like a good keto fudge, the key to super fudgy keto brownies is plenty of fat. That is what makes them fudgy in the first place!
We use butter for the best flavor, but coconut oil would also probably work.
Use blanched almond flour.
For the best texture in keto fudge brownies, use blanched almond flour. Almond meal will be more coarse and the texture will be less fudgy.
Use a combination of baking chocolate and cocoa powder.
Many brownie recipes use just one or the other, but the best keto brownies have a combination of both.
The reason is, baker’s chocolate provides a fudgy texture and moisture like cocoa powder cannot, no matter how much butter you add. On the other hand, cocoa powder has a much more intense chocolate flavor, which is also a must in great brownies!
So, using both is the sweet spot. I’ve tested again and again, so the ratio in the recipe below works best!
Mix the batter well, but not too much.
Brownies should be dense, not airy. So, mixing the batter too much can introduce too much air. On the other hand, not mixing enough will yield an uneven result.
Mix just enough to make the batter uniform, but not beyond that.
Don’t be alarmed if the batter looks slightly grainy before baking, though. It won’t be afterward! Here is how it looks in the pan before placing in the oven:
Don’t overbake the keto brownies.
This is the single MOST important tip for fudgy keto brownies! Do not wait for a toothpick to come out clean – if you do, the brownies will be dry.
You should still use a toothpick to test, but the criteria is not the same as other baked goods.
Fudgy keto brownies are done when an inserted toothpick comes out almost clean, but not quite. It should have a little batter left on it, which you can ball up between your fingers. That’s when you know they are done!
IMPORTANT: The brownies will be extremely soft and not “set” when they are done. This is totally normal, and they will set as they cool.
Don’t pour off any excess butter.
You might see some butter pooling on top of the brownies when they are done. Do not pour it off, which would make the brownies dry!
Let the keto fudge brownies cool and any pooled butter will absorb back inside.
How To Cut Keto Fudge Brownies
If you want the best keto brownies, when you cut them is just as critical as how you cut them.
Let keto chocolate brownies cool to set.
Tempting as it may be, do not try to move, cut, or eat the brownies right away.
They need to cool completely to set. If possible, let them cool and set overnight.
If you like a warm brownie, you can reheat it later.
They taste even better the next day! Just store them in an airtight container overnight.
Cut using a straight down motion.
When your keto fudge brownies have cooled completely and set, you can go ahead and cut them.
To do so, lift the edges of the parchment paper out of the pan and place onto a cutting board. Support the bottom and be careful not to break the brownies before cutting.
Use a sharp chef’s knife to cut using a straight down motion. Do not see-saw.
Wipe down the knife between cuts.
Since this is such a fudgy keto brownies recipe, the inside of the brownies will tend to stick to the knife.
To avoid getting too much brownie stuck to the knife, simply wipe down the knife between cuts. You can even dip in water and then lightly dry between cuts, if needed.
How To Store Keto Chocolate Brownies
Fudgy keto brownies are best stored on the counter, in an airtight container. They will last 2 to 4 days after cutting, or about 5 to 7 days uncut.
If you want brownies to last even longer, here are a couple of tips:
- Place a slice of bread into the container with the brownies. The moisture in the bread will keep the brownies fudgy for a couple days longer. Make sure to replace the slice of bread if it gets stale.
- Vacuum seal the keto fudge brownies. Keeping the air out will reduce drying out.
Do not refrigerate brownies. They will dry out faster, due to the lower temperature and lower humidity in the refrigerator.
Can I Freeze Keto Brownies?
Yes, you can!
For the fudgiest end result later, wrap the uncut keto chocolate brownies in two layers of foil and then plastic wrap over that.
If you want the convenience of separate pieces, you can cut them first. But, be aware that keto brownies with almond flour will be a bit more prone to drying out if they are stored pre-cut.
Either way, frozen keto brownies will keep for about 4 to 6 months. Thaw them before removing the wrapping, so that less moisture escapes. If you froze brownies uncut, you’ll want to thaw them completely before trying to cut them.
Top ’em with some low carb ice cream, or maybe even sugar-free caramel sauce!

-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line an 8x8 in (20x20 cm) pan with parchment paper, with the edges of the paper over the sides.
-
Melt the butter and chocolate together in a double boiler, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove from heat.
-
Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Add the almond flour, powdered sweetener, cocoa powder, sea salt, and eggs. Stir together until uniform. The batter will be a little grainy looking.
-
Transfer the batter to the lined pan. Smooth the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon. If desired, sprinkle with chopped walnuts and press into the top.
-
Bake for about 13-18 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out almost clean with just a little batter on it that balls up between your fingers. (Do NOT wait for it to come out totally clean, and don't worry about any butter pooled on top - just watch the actual brownie part to be super soft but not fluid.)
-
Cool completely before moving or cutting. There may be some butter pooled on top - do not drain it, it will absorb back in after cooling.

Recipe Notes
Serving size: 1 brownie (1/16 of entire recipe)
Update: This recipe was originally written with 3/4 cup butter and using granulated erythritol. It has been updated to 1/2 cup butter and using powdered sweetener instead, which in testing has created better results (more fudgy brownies). The version in my cookbook uses powdered erythritol and the version above uses powdered allulose, which creates even smoother fudge brownies. This information is here in case you prefer one of the old versions.

Audrey
I made these for my dad. He’s diabetic and so misses his brownies and desserts. These were even better the next day. I was curious, have you tried using p-nut butter in place of some of the butter?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Audrey, I would not swap out the butter for peanut butter, as it would change the texture of the recipe. They would likely be drier and denser. You could swirl a bit of peanut butter on the top of the brownies before baking to them that classic chocolate and peanut butter flavor.
Jamson
Wow, SO GOOD! And super fudgy as promised. I used Swerve confectioners, slightly less than called for, as you suggested. I only had a bar of 90% chocolate on hand, so I used that for the baking chocolate, and I used half cocOa and half cacAo powder. I let it rest overnight airtight with a piece of bread like you said in your tips. Smooth and fudgy. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Michelle Mckim
My first keto dessert I have made (seasoned baker and cook) . I was so looking forward to a brownie I could eat guilt free. This sadly wasn’t it. They are not fudgy, they are rather cakey and grainy. Not sweet, though that did not bother me as I love dark chocolate, it was unexpected that it had no sweetness. I just can’t get past the texture, neither could my bf who will eat anything.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Michelle, Sorry these didn’t turn out as expected. It sounds like your brownies may have overbaked. This recipe is best removed from the oven before they set in the pan. They will look underdone but will be a great fudgy texture but cakey.
Niki
Hi! Can substitute coconut flour instead of almond?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Niki, I’m sorry, coconut flour will not work in this recipe.
CntryG
We had a huge themed party last night but for dessert everyone was eating ice cream and different pies. I was so tempted when everyone left to splurge a little. So glad I opened your recipe book and made these fudgy brownies. I may not have gone to sleep until after midnight enjoying a bite or two, but I also didn’t have the guilt or racing heart from poor food choices. So glad I bought your books!!!
Raiz
My entire family absolutely LOVED these! So much healthier than regular brownies. I used Lakanto. I also used organic cacao paste for the chocolate and raw organic cacao powder for the cocoa powder. So delicious! Thank you for this treat! I am so grateful.
Lucinda
This is just wonderful – tastes so good, you’d never know it was keto. A real lifesaver, thanks so much! I’ve tried a few of your recipes now and I’ve been impressed every time – fantastic!
Ginger Snell
Satisfied my family’s sweet tooth! Will be making these again!! Thank you Maya!
Laura
Love these!! I used the Hershey’s special dark cocoa powder and YUMMY!! Thanks Maya!
Jessica
The chocolate flavor is good but I find these too dense for my taste.
Leila Bliss
I have multiple sclerosis and am on disability with the hospital I worked for before I was diagnosed. The good thing is now that I don’t work anymore I can get healthier with the help of my parents who I live with. Keto has worked SO well for me that I’m crazy about it and when I found your site I made your cheesecake fluff with strawberries (my go to forever) and then I made the peanut butter chocolate fat bombs and when I finished those off I just made your keto brownies. I wanted to tell you about it because my MS effects my cognitive brain so I make mistakes constantly even when I’m trying really hard not to. I’m smelling the brownies right now while they cool and am ravenous =). However the point of this is to let you know that even when you screw up as much as I, your recipes still come out amazing and even MS can’t stop me from enjoying them. So thank you so much for your recipes. I’m sure I’ll try even more as time goes on. I love the 3 I’ve tried so far! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Oh and my dad appreciates how you list all the calories, fat, etc because he’s my personal keto doctor (I tell him that because he spends all day crunching numbers for me and putting things together including all my meals, snacks, etc. I owe him a lot. When I make a recipe he weighs the whole dish then cuts it up into portion sizes and writes down how much it is per portion. He’s the best dad ever, but he thanks you too.
Laura
These were amazing I used dark chocolate just as a preference and they were the best brownies I’ve ever tasted keto or otherwise
Betty
WOW, these are delicious! I have had a favorite brownie recipe for years but this one is almost better. They taste like they are already frosted and are so easy to make. I will certainly make these again..
Rosie
Oh Wow! Very good. but then again all your recipes are.
melissa vermey
I really want to try these, but don’t have a double boiler, what can I use?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Melissa, You can melt the chocolate either in a microwave (at 15-second intervals, stirring in between until chocolate is smooth) or on the stovetop on the lowest setting. (Actively stir the chocolate until all lumps are gone, be sure not to let it get too hot and burn.) I hope this helps!
Stacey
Just a helpful tip on making a makeshift double boiler: Just simmer a little water on the stove in a metal pan, and nestle a glass or metal bowl over the pot of simmering water. I’ve done this many times to melt chocolate with indirect heat. It’s super easy and works like a charm.
Jennifer
I *absolutely* love your recipes. Love. But your website is hard to manage. I know you need revenue but the pop-up videos that I can’t close so that I Can read your recipes are kinda horrible :/ I desperately want to refer my friends to your website and share your stuff on Facebook but I can’t with those videos in the way; is there any chance you could make them easier to manage?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jennifer, Thank you for your feedback. I have recently created an ad-free version of the site. You can find out more about it here: Wholesome Yum Plus.
Maggie
Good to know! The ads are crazy.
Jo Summers
Melissa Vermey, any stainless steel bowl that can cover/sit in the top of a saucepan can be used as a double boiler. And because the bowl is round there are no corners to scrape out like the double boilers that are designed to look like an extension of your saucepan.
Kendra
Wow. Amazing!!! I had chopped pecans to use up and some Lily’s sea salt caramel chips. I sprinkled both on top before baking. My new addiction!
Shianna
At first I thought they weren’t so great….
Now, my self control is slipping away. I have been craving chocolate for so long! I don’t have the bakers chocolate to make them fudgier so mine are a little dry and cocoa powdery but they help!! They help so much!!
Keith
Holy moley these turned out amazing! I used granulated allulose.
Tina O
Thank you! I was looking for a comment where someone referred to using granulated sweetener as that is all I have on hand and I want to make these tomorrow. 🙂
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Tina, Unfortunately, granulated sweetener will result in grainy brownies. I recommend only using powdered sweetener.
Denise F.
Astounding. All the tips were right on and the fudge brownie flavor is rich, deep and satisfying. Just have to add that I never thought I would ever taste Grandma’s German chocolate cake ever again but 1 spoonful of Keto macadamia nut butter containing MCT was icing on the cake and 1 piece is all I needed. Froze the rest. Best keto desert ever. And easy to make.
Amanda
I made these this evening & realized while they were cooking that I used granulated allulose instead of the powder.
I’m hoping that doesn’t ruin them, but I’ll find out once they are fully cooled. Fingers crossed.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Amanda, They may be a bit gritty, but they should still have a great flavor.
Amanda
Not sure what I did wrong besides adding not powdered allulose, but they turned out very bitter.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Amanda, the type of cocoa powder used can change the flavors of the recipe. I recommend this brand of cocoa powder for great flavor without the bitterness.
Ellen Reynolds
I have the powdered monk fruit allulose blend, will this work?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Ellen, Yes. The blend is sweeter than pure allulose, so you’ll want to use a less. Use 1/2 cup of Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend.
Tina
Hi, I used 100% cacao , should I have used a lower %?
Amanda
Can I use oil instead of butter? I’m looking to make it dairy free
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Amanda, I have not tested this recipe without butter, but I think the best alternative would be coconut oil.
mia
Hello! I will be using Monk Fruit Erythritol mixture which I will grind first ( I accidentally got the granulated one.) Shall I use the same measurement? I am a bit confused on the conversion chart on your chart. Please help! I plan on making this tonight 🙂
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Mia, Please use a heaping 1/3 cup of monk fruit erythritol in this recipe. Allulose is not as sweet as sugar (it is roughly 70% as sweet) while monk fruit erythritol is 1:1 with sugar, so you will need to use less of it in this recipe. I hope this helps.
Eileen Mabini
Hi, could I use Lily’s sugar free chocolate chips in this recipe instead of the unsweetened baking chocolate?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Eileen, Yes, but you will want to use a little less sweetener since the chocolate is already sweetened.
Jeanette
Ohhh mannnnnn this one is the best.. so fudgy and smooth.
My daughter said it is the best Keto brownie I ever made (and believe me.. I tried a lot of different recipes) and the daughter of my sister said she likes it more than the normal one…
On the downside.. with everybody loving it.. it is gone too soon
Bernice Humphrey
Someone mentioned using cacao powder and did not like the results. But that’s what I have on hand. Is there a different measure of cacao powder that will work or do you advise using only cocoa powder?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Bernice, If you are wanting to use all cocoa powder, then I suggest using this recipe instead for Brownies with Almond Butter.
Bernice Humphrey
Actually I was asking about using cacao instead of cocoa.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Bernice, My apologies. Yes, you can use cacao powder. It generally has a stronger flavor than cocoa powder, so it is probably best to only use 1 tbsp of cacao powder instead of 2.
Janaya
Recipe was easy to follow and came out great. Baked about 13:30 minutes. I put all my ingredients in the app but mine are 9 net carbs. What ingredients are you using to get 2 per serving?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Janaya, The Unsweetened chocolate and cocoa powder have a wide variance when it comes to carb counts. Try to read the labels – even if comparing the same products- to find the lowest carb options.
Janaya
My cocoa had 2 net carbs and chocolate is 1.
Janaya
I’m new to keto and I didn’t realize you subtract erythritol. I used monk fruit and erythritol blend!!
Stella
These are unbelievably yummy! Mine were fudgy and moist and very popular. Current shortage of vanilla essence around where I live so I exchanged it for caramel flavouring which turned out to add a real depth to the sweetness. I also added a little espresso. Thank you so much for this recipe! And I encourage all to try caramel essence in their sweet recipes for a lovely change.
Tabiya
This is by far one of the BEST recipes I’ve tried from you. OMGGG. MOIST, chocolatey, and extremely rich. (I used lily’s dark chocolate chips as my baking chocolate) and Splenda as my sweetener. I used a little less sweetener than the recipe called for but only because Splenda is just very sweet and I want to avoid the aftertaste.
I kept mine in the oven for EXACTLY 12.5 minutes. Thank you so much for this !! I LOVEEEEE ITT and I can’t wait to make my family eat them, lol.
Olivia
Hi Maya, I just tried making these using the metric version of the recipe. I used all the ingredients exactly how they are listed, and the batter tasted so good! But unfortunately at 18 mins of baking my pan was still fluid in consistency, and I pulled the pan out at 20 mins (not wanting to over bake the batch) but they still didn’t set. Any tips?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Olivia, Thank you for catching this! There was a mistake in the metric version of the recipe, it has been corrected.
Viola
Tried making these and pulled at 15 minutes….used the powdered sweetener……they tasted better raw and they just dry. Will try again next time only bake them 10 minutes. I’ll use this batch for keto bombs I guess.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Viola, I am sorry these didn’t work out for you. If they were dry, then it sounds like they were overbaked. Oven temps can vary with hot and cold spots, so you may want to remove these from the oven earlier next time.
Jane Conover
We love the flavor of this recipe but for some reason both times they came out super wet even after keeping them in the oven for 5 more mins than called for. We scooped them out with a spoon! Also, they don’t really fit the pan, very thin layer. Half cup of butter right? We are using erythritol.
We will keep making them but would love advice.
Appreciate all your recipes!
Jane
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jane, Are your brownies completely cooled before removing them? If they are hot when you are scooping them, they will be loose. Are you using an 8×8″ baking pan? Brownies are generally thin (around an inch to an inch and a half thick) because they don’t rise in the oven.
Michael
I have made these twice. The first time, they were not sweet enough. Probably because I used 100% cacao powder and baking chocolate, so I doubled the sweetener. This did the trick. However, the brownies are still dry. would increasing the butter help? I did make certain that I underbaked them and they looked gooey when they came out of the oven. But once they cooled, they became very dry.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Michael, I’m sorry these didn’t turn out as planned! It sounds like the extra bulk from the sweetener may have dried out this batch of brownies. You can add an additional 2-3 tbs of butter to the next batch of brownies.
sylvia murry
Hello. I just have a question, are these recipes good for diabetics?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Sylvia, I am not a doctor and cannot give medical advice. I suggest speaking with your doctor before starting any new diet. That said, many diabetics have found success with following low carb or keto. I wish you the best!
Shirlene Kwan
Don’t have powdered allulose, does the liquid work? How many should we use in leiu of the powdered?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Shirlene, I’m sorry, I would not use liquid allulose in this recipe. I don’t believe the recipe would work.
Linda
I made these last night, I used salted butter and no salt and the rest I followed exactly. I may have made them bake 5 minutes past ready because I have a new oven, but I love them.
Brenda Macdonald
I made the blueberry muffins and they were. Great!
Erin
I tried these brownies tonight and they were wonderful. You simply have to follow the directions! The only thing I added was a teaspoon of espressos powder to the melted butter/chocolate mixture, to enhance the chocolate flavor (I thought it may also hide any strange flavor from the monk fruit sugar, as this is my first time using it!) I add this to most of my chocolate recipes. Anyway, they are awesome! Thank you!
Christine
Used your recipe with powdered erythritol. They came out bitter. Need more sweetener. Since others have had success with this recipe, I must have done something wrong, but don’t know what. Sorry.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Christine, I’m sorry these weren’t sweetened to your liking. Did you add the salt to the recipe? Salt cuts the bitterness from the chocolate, so it’s best to not leave that ingredient out. You can always adjust the sweetener to a level you prefer the next time around.
Barry Richardson
I just made this recipe, following it to the letter and I must say these brownies are to die for, just the right amount of sweetness and so fudgy very rich and the chocolate taste was spot on.
I am not much of a chef to be honest, but the easy to read recipe and instructions made it so simple,I was amazed how they turned out, I can’t wait to try more of your recipes, thank you so much for your help om my Keto journey.
Lisa
I was pleasantly surprised by the melt in your mouth taste and texture. I had no issue with butter pooling on the top. Followed the recipe to a T. Thank you! It’s definitely a keeper!
Cheryl F Gonzalez
Delicious! I made this very easy recipe with a few my life occasion’s of my own. Lol very very good!
Earl Hughes
Hi there. We are new to baking keto and are unfamiliar with the products and product names. When I click on the erythritol it comes up as Xantham Gum. Usually if you click on an item it explains what it is. I bought the xantham gum and used it, it does not make for good brownies.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Earl, Oh no, sorry to hear that – you definitely don’t want xanthan gum. Erythritol is a sweetener. I checked the erythritol link on the recipe card and it takes me to the right product, erythritol. Are you by chance based in a different country? Sometimes Amazon has strange redirects.
N
Unfortunately I have to throw them away, I followed the recipe but they were too greasy (even after they were cool) and grainy.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Sorry to hear that. It sounds like either your chocolate seized during melting (most likely based on what you described – try lower heat next time), or some of the ingredients were different. Was your sweetener powdered? Was the almond flour super fine and blanched?
Lisa
Yummy but mine were a bit crumbly. I might have baked them too long, but I will try again. Really hit the spot! Thanks!
Tracey
I cant see where the list of ingredients are and the method of how to make and cook???

Michele
This are by far my favourite keto brownies to date. I substituted the powered Erythritol for a granulated stevia/Erythritol blend and used half the amount and they were wonderful.
Brianna Rodriguez
How would I go about using coconut sugar as a sweetener instead? I know it’s not a low carb sweetener, I’m just wanting to use this recipe as a healthier version to typical brownies! I looked at your conversion chart and saw there would need to be some extra changes in order for the brownies to turn out using this sweetener..thank you much for your help!!!
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Brianna, Coconut sugar is usually fairly coarse. I would send it through a blender or spice grinder to powder it as finely as possible and prevent grittiness in your brownies. The rest of the recipe should remain the same.
Carol
These were so yummy! am just a little confused as the net carbs count here is 2g and in your book for the same recipe it says net carbs 1g. Just like to know which is correct. many thanks.
April Ernst
This is the best keto brownie recipe I’ve ever made. I absolutely love these brownies. I do suggest that you listen to the tips that she has available as well. Let the brownies sit until it cools before cutting it. It does make a difference. Also, the first time I made these I baked them all the way through. That was a mistake. Again listen to her suggestions. They were still good they just weren’t as melt in your mouth watery. The second and the third time I made these I doubled the batch. The recipe is super simple. I’m so thankful I found this recipe.
Joanna
What if I use Lily’s stevia sweetened baking chocolate instead of unsweetened baking chocolate, would I reduce the amount of Erythritol and by how much?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Joanna, You can use Lily’s if you like. I would cut the additional sweetener down by half.
Nick Fisher
Thanks for posting. Unfortunately these are not like regular brownie consistency. They crumble and don’t hold when you cut them, and they’re not chewy/gooey like regular brownies. Guess that’s why they call it a diet ;( not supposed to taste like real thing ugh
Wholesome Yum A
Nick, is it possible you overbaked them? There are tips in the post for how to avoid that.
Nancy Conlon
These brownies are so delicious!. I’ll be using this recipe again and again. Nice and chocolatey taste. Yummmm.
Annelise
These turned out great for me thanks! I used a stevia/monk fruit powdered mix.
Preston Knight
Will coconut flour work?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Preston, You may be interested in this recipe for Low Carb Brownies instead. These use coconut flour.
Julia
Would it be okay to use a little baking powder to ensure they rise and don’t turn out flat?
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Julia. This recipe is a dense textured brownie. I haven’t tried it with baking powder so I’m not sure how it would turn it. Let me know if you decide to try it.
Anita McGrew
I made these and they were very bitter, I couldn’t taste chocolate, all I could taste was bitter. I was so disappointed!
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Anita, I’m sorry these didn’t turn out as you had hoped. Did you use unsweetened baking chocolate? How about blanched finely ground almond flour? Almond flour with the skins left on tends to be very bitter.
Elena
Hi again,
I have one more question – I will be making the brownie without any sweetener because I am eating sweetener free..what should I do to keep the good consistency of the brownie?
Thanks,
Elena
Wholesome Yum A
Hi Elena, while I wouldn’t recommend doing that and haven’t tested it myself, you might be able to substitute additional almond flour or a much smaller amount of coconut flour. I’m not sure what amounts would be best, but let me know if you try doing that!
Elena
Hi, what can I substitute the baking chocolate with and in what quantity? I live in a country, where there is no such thing.
Thanks

Can you substitute the unsweetened chocolate for sugar-free chocolate chips? And would that decrease the amount of erythritol in it?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Angela, Yes, you can use sugar-free chocolate. You will probably want to decrease the amount of sweetener you add. I would start with 1/3 c of allulose and then adjust to taste.
Yette
I love your site! This is the only site I go to for my keto food rotation. 🙂
Made this brownie recipe and can’t wait for them to cool so I can already enjoy the brownies.
Connie D.
My brownies turned out to be a disappointment. They were very cake-like, not really dry, just not sticky, gooey goodness. The biggest surprise though was that they weren’t sweet enough. I’m either going to frost them or find a use for them as a crumbled topping for some other dessert.
(Your lemon bars are wonderful, but with the pecan pie bar crust.)
Wholesome Yum A
I’m sorry to hear that, Connie! Over-baking may have caused the texture you experienced. I’m glad you still found a use for them!
Donna
This is THE BEST Keto brownie recipe!! For an extra treat, my hubby and I put some natural peanut butter on top – GAME CHANGER! It tastes JUST like a Reese’s PB cup!! I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and had been struggling to find good desserts. Sooo good!
Kathryn
You weren’t kidding about fudgy!! THANK YOU for this recipe! I tried a different recipe last night (from a different site) and they were awful. These came out great!!! Also, I never knew I could easily turn granulated sugar into powdered – so smart!
Su Namii
So, I made these and the cocoa flavor was overpowering and they were very, very thin. I am not sure what I did wrong. I am hoping to maybe get some help on what to do.
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Su, these brownies are meant to be very fudgy tasting. Did you possibly use a pan that was larger than recommended resulting in thinner brownies? There’s a video included on the post that shows how to make the brownies. I hope you try them again.
Kayla
I accidentally bought granulated instead of powdered… Can I turn it into powdered some way?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kayla, Yes, if you have a powerful blender or just a coffee grinder, you can grind it into powder.
Cecile
Hi, I don’t think the metric calculations are correct. Mine were also swimming in butter, and this is probably because 1/2 cup butter = 115 g, not 170. Also, 2 tbsp cocoa powder = 12g, not 30g. These are important differences!
My brownies ended up in the bin… 🙁
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Cecile, I’m sorry you had issues with the recipe. These brownies have to be completely cooled before eating them. They will reabsorb the butter during the cooling process. I hope you try the recipe again because it really is delicious.
Katie
I made these yesterday and Oh. My. Gawd.
They surpassed any expectation I had (SO FUDGY) and now I don’t even want to try any of the other keto brownie recipes I’ve saved. Thank you! I love any recipe I’ve tried off your site
Stacey Lind
Hi Maya!
Thank you for sharing all of your delicious recipes! I’ve loved every single one that I’ve tried! I saw comments about not using almond flour and your response that coconut flour cannot be used in place of it. Is there any other type of flour that is not made of tree nuts that can be used instead of almond flour? I REALLY want to make fudgy keto brownies like these, but am allergic to tree nuts.
Thank you!
Stacey Lind
Wholesome Yum
Hi Stacey, the next best option would be sunflower seed flour. You can use it in the same amount as the almond flour.
Tara Poston
I always love your recipes. I made these brownies tonight, but I had to use swerve since I couldn’t find the other sweetener. I also crushed up some fresh raspberries and incorporated it into the batter. They aren’t like regular brownies out of the box that are super sweet and that’s okay! It feels good to indulge in a tasty treat like this and not feel guilty after the fact…
Shelby Binns
Hi. You said a glass pan is best, but the video shows a metal pan. Is it crucial to use glass?
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Shelby, you can certainly use either a glass or metal pan. The baking time in anything other than glass may vary since the recipe as written is based on using a glass pan. Let me know how you like the recipe!
Nicci
Hello Maya, let me begin by saying thank you. I actually found this recipe posted on Facebook by a lady named Mira from Mypcoskitchen (thought you were the same person). I made them yesterday and have never tasted anything more delicious in my life. I was recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and was feeling very done in and sorry for myself as my sweet tooth dominates my common sense. Anyway – I had to adjust the recipe somewhat. I used margarine instead of butter. I did not even bother cutting them. Every now and then I just walk past and break off a bite sized piece and happily carry on with my day. Thank you thank you thank you thank you! PS – I read all your tips and tricks and listened and it worked 100% 😀 😀 😀
Rachel Gagnon
Mine were not good. I did use granulated Swerve though, because I didn’t have powdered. Also, the recipe doesn’t say when to put the two eggs, but I just mixed them in after the dry ingredients. Does using granulated versus powdered really make a big difference?
Wholesome Yum
Hi Rachel, sorry to hear they didn’t work out. The eggs go in during step 4, at the same time as the almond flour. For sweeteners, granulated versus powdered can greatly alter the final texture in baked goods — next time, you can use a coffee grinder or blender to blitz your granulated sweetener into a powdered form.
Christine Freeland
Great recipe. Great taste. My go to brownie recipe.
Kayla
Would changing the powdered erythritol to monk fruit change the moisture in the brownies?
Wholesome Yum
Hi Kayla, are you referring to a Lakanto-style monk fruit sweetener that contains erythritol? If so, I think substituting that would make the brownies a little too moist, since you’ll use over 1/2 cup less in the batter.
Candy
If you just use regular erythritol not powdered? Is that okay?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Candy, No, they turn out grainy using granulated.
Karly
Yum!
Erika Castellano
Hello!! I honestly LOVE LOVE LOVE all your recipes!!! And the brownies came out delicious your page SAVED my life when l switch to keto l swear!! Thank you so much for sharing all your recipes and videos with us, every day l find something new to make and following the recipe it comes out exactly like your pictures!!
Stephanei
many trial and error with different keto brownie recipes and these are by far the best!!! thank you! followed the recipe exactly and i didnt have a problem with the butter. all in all definitely making these again!
Suzanne Cowart
My brownies were extremely dry not fudgey at all….followed recipe exactly
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Suzanne, That means they were over-baked. Did you check the tips in the post above for signs of doneness?
Tatyana
Hello, tried to make these brownies last night, and I think it has potential, but the butter separated from the batter, and was just floating on top… As a result I over baked it 🙁 Please help
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Tatyana, As mentioned in the post, some degree of this is normal, and no need to overbake to get rid of it. However, I did re-test the recipe and updated it to reduce the butter and switched sweetener to powdered erythritol, which should improve the results. This is now in the recipe card and there’s a note describing what changed. Hope you’ll try the new and improved version!
Jane
It says serving 16 but the video shows 9. I just want to make sure I know the correct carb count
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Jane, Sorry about the confusion. The nutrition info is for the brownies cut into 16.
Jane
Fit says serving 16 but the video shows 9. I just want to make sure I know the correct carb count
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Jane, Sorry about that! The recipe makes 16 brownies and nutrition info is assuming you cut it into 16. We cut it into 9 for the video only, which you could do if you wanted larger brownies.
Virginia Benavides
Just wondering if anyone has used Coconut flour instead of Almond Flour?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Virginia, No, sorry, coconut flour won’t work in this recipe. I do have these low carb brownies that use coconut flour.
Linda
Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Linda, No, sorry, they are totally different.
Mageline
Hi, I would love to make these, but the number of servings is 16? You slices look like they were for 9 servings. What would be the carb count for the larger pieces if I cut them the same way you did? I know I could do the math myself, but I’m a bit lazy. LOL! Plus the 16 servings shown in the recipe threw off. Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Mageline, I cut them into 16 pieces in the pictures, not 9. The overhead shot shows 12 brownies out of the 16 total, because 1 row isn’t shown. I don’t have the carb count off hand for cutting them differently, so you’d have to calculate that if you want to cut them differently than I did.
Linda
Will xylitol give me the same results as erythritol?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Linda, Yes, you can use xylitol. You’d need less. Check the sugar-free sweetener conversion calculator here.
John Horning
6 ingredients? I count 9.
Just wondering. Looks delicious and am planning to try it.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi John, I don’t count optional ingredients in the count since they are not required. Hope you like the brownies!
Barb
Is the amount of butter correct? 3/4 cup =12 tablespoons. Mine was very greasy. Still good
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Barb, Yes, it’s correct. The butter will absorb into the brownies once they cool.
Veronica
So much butter, it was swimming in butter, poured off so much butter. I double checked and triple checked. I measured by weight. The flavour was there, after pressing out the butter
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Veronica, Check the tips in the post above. This is normal and you should not have poured it off. The butter absorbs back into the brownies after they cool.
Kim
Can these be stored in the freezer?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kim, Yes, you can freeze keto brownies.
Crystal
I HATE almond flour so i was super nervous about making this but they turned out SO fudgy, so chocolatey and you cannot tell that there is almond flour in this. I used swerve so i converted for that, so maybe next time I will use more but other than that, this was SO perfect. I topped it with hazelnuts for extra fat and I can’t wait to remake this.
Kristen Wood
Oh my goodness, these are SO good!
Susan Braddy
I had the same problem with butter pooling …
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Susan, Totally normal – check the tips in the post above!
Stephannie Ramirez
How long should I bake if I make with cheesecake on top? One recipe calls for baking for 40-45 minutes with cheesecake on top but I don’t want to mess up your recipe for the brownies.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Stephanie, Sorry, I haven’t tried that so am not sure. Let me know how it goes for you if you try it.
Sam
Hey there! I’d love to try these, but when I put the ingredients into my nutrition tracker, I end up with 10 carbs (8 net). What am I missing here? (I generally use Swerve confectioners sugar- which is where most of the carbs are coming from). Thanks for the help!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sam, It’s just your tracker not knowing that it doesn’t need to count the carbs in Swerve. They are required to be listed on the label, but the body can’t metabolize erythritol, so you don’t need to count those carbs.
Sam
So happy I tried these! They’re a staple in our house now
Becky
If I’m going to use Swerve instead of Erythritol, should I stick with the 2/3 cup measurement?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Becky, You’d need a bit less sweetener if using Swerve. Check the conversion calculator here.
Vanessa
These are awesome!! They fix my chocolate craving. I took them to work to share with my keto and non keto colleagues ALL loved it. My son loves it.
Margaret DiMassa
I tried to make your Fudgy Keto Brownies and I’m not sure what I did wrong, unless it was just that I didn’t mix the brownies enough. The mixture looked ok in the bowl, but after I put the mix in the prepared pan to bake, all the melted butter rose to the top and then I baked them for to long and they tasted burnt so I threw them out, What did I do wrong or is the butter suppose to raise to the top???? Thanks for any help.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Margaret, That’s normal for the butter to do that – check the tips in the post above. However, if they tasted burnt then you definitely baked them too long. Again check the tips in the post to check for signs of doneness.
Lisa
I don’t need tons of sweets in my life, but this recipe had me intrigued. It started with melting baking chocolate and butter, just like when I made regular brownies in my younger days, so it had promise. When they came out of the oven, the butter pool on top was somewhat concerning, but I just put them in the fridge to cool. There was no yellow pool on top when they were cooled like I expected. I had to use regular almond flour as my store doesn’t carry blanched. The texture was somewhat more mealy than I liked, but what a wonderful deep, rich fudgy flavor – one square is quite satisfying! I’d like to top them with a strawberry cream cheese or cheesecake topping. Thanks for the recipe!
Red
Man these are perfect!! I made these just like the instructions but I melted a bit less dark chocolate chips (allowed with keto) and did not use erythritol (don’t even know what that is) but non the less just like the recipe here and they are great and fudgy! My kids loved them. I even stored some in the fridge and ate some almost a wk later and they are still good! Even ate cold!
Lucy
Hi, I live in the UK, so thank you for having the metric conversion……but, I used your metric measurements and I’m pretty sure they are wrong as it turned out swimming in butter, As the cups recipe says the same amount of butter and almond flour, unfortunately, I didn’t see this until after. Will look forward to doing it again if you won’t mind working it out please, I have no idea about these cups.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Lucy, Check the tips in the post above – it’s totally normal for there to be some butter on top during baking but it will reabsorb as they cool. Even when volume is the same, weights will differ. The metric conversion is correct, though.
Elizabeth
I made these but after 14 minutes there was still a ton of butter on top so I left them in oven about 5 or 7 minutes longer and they still had a bunch of butter on top. When I set them to cool they weren’t liquidy but they are crumbly.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Elizabeth, It’s normal for butter to pool on top and it reabsorbs after they cool. Did you drain it off? That would have made them crumbly for sure. If you didn’t and they were still crumbly, it means they baked too long.
Kristin Birkenes
Hi there – I’m new to the Keto world (2 weeks) but I’ve already tried many of your fun recipes and I appreciate your wisdom, expertise, and willingness to share! I tried these brownies and they came out with a layer of grease on top. I reviewed each ingredient prior to adding, but somewhere along the way, something went terribly wrong! The greasy, smushy bits of brownie are still okay tasting, but I can’t serve as brownies and will probably need to throw away! Do you know what could have gone wrong if I used the exact amounts as indicated in the recipe? Thank you! 😉
Take care,
Kristin
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kristin, It’s normal for some butter to be on top after baking, but it should reabsorb after cooling completely. Did you let them cool before serving?
Michelle Petty
I followed directions to the TEE. These brownies NEVER SET UP! Help!
What a waste of time and money.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Michelle, Please check the tips in the post above. It’s normal for the brownies not to set while baking. They set after cooling.
Carissa
Hi. I want to try these, however I have monk fruit. Would I use the same amount?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Carissa, You’d need less and it depends on the brand – check the low carb sweetener conversion calculator here.
Randee Estes
I followed the instruction and ingredients exactly and they looked perfect but when I tasted them they are very, very grainy.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Randee, It could be the sweetener. Did you use the same one on the recipe card?
Carol
I have a hard time replacing one unhealthy product “sugar” for a equally bad replacement like erythritol which is man-made from cornstarch? I’m trying to stay away from questionable sweeteners. What healthier choice could I use in place of erythritol? I see from the comments many have other things they’d like to substitute but to me butter is a less offensive product to something artificial.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Carol, Erythritol is a natural sweetener, not artificial. It is found in many fruits, actually. It is not made from cornstarch, it is made by a fermentation process, which is a natural process just like yogurt is a fermentation process. For erythritol, it does typically involve corn, but that is not in the final product, it’s only necessary for the fermentation. If you prefer a different sweetener, you can check the low carb sweetener guide and calculator here.
Juliana
These look amazing! Is there any way to substitute butter? Maybe with avocado?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Juliana, I have a recipe for avocado brownies here. It still has butter, but less of it, and you could substitute coconut oil for the rest.
Gail
These indeed looked like a greasy mess when they came out of the oven – I was very worried. After I allowed them time, though, most of the butter reabsorbed into the brownies and they were delicious. I used Pyure sweetener, so I cut the amount in half. I also didn’t have an 8×8 pan so I used an 8×10. They were thin but still held together. Cooking time was 13 minutes for me using the changes above. Great recipe!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you for sharing, Gail! The butter pooling may have been due to the smaller amount of sweetener, but I’m glad it still worked. Sometimes that does happen anyway even with the original recipe but should reabsorb just like you found. 🙂
Mélanie Dion
Thank you for that answer! I tried the recipe for the first time and this happened to me. I just took them out of the oven and I was wondering if I misread the butter quantity! I’m glad to know I didn’t. Looking forward tasting them, they smell AMAZING!
Sandra
Could you make these using muffin tins?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Sandra, Yes that should work fine. You will need to adjust the bake time, they won’t take as long when baked in muffin tins.
Yang
Love the added walnut! They look amazing.
Jennifer
These look amazing and that video has me drooling, thanks for sharing!
Cherissa
These brownies are awesome! They are definitely for someone who likes dark chocolate. Before going keto I was never much of a fan, so the 1/16th serving size is the perfect amount to hit the spot. I did have to make a few tweaks to the recipe however, using approximately 1/3 regular granulated Swerve and the other 2/3 in the brown “sugar” Swerve. I had purchased them a while back on Amazon and forgotten that they weren’t both the plain white version. Because of that perhaps, I did have to add in a few drops of Splenda Zero to sweeten them up a bit more for my tastes. After baking, I admit that I was VERY worried when I first took the pan out of the oven – it looked like a hot, buttered mess! Even after cooling them completely, my fingers were still covered in melted butter just from touching the top. The flavor was superb although they were too crumbly to be able to pick up and eat. I went against advice and stuck them in the fridge overnight hoping that it would help. The butter re-solidified and now they can be picked up without falling apart. I am worried that they will dry out before my family finishes them though, so I’ll probably vacuum seal half for later. Overall, this is a fantastic recipe that’s easy enough even for a novice baker like me! Thank you so much!
Cynthia
Oh yeah! I could eat a whole tray!
Linda Spiker
These look so incredible!
Renee D Kohley
That was a lot easier than I was envision! Thank you for the fun recipe to try!
Dafna
Ok this is so so so delicious!
Sharon
Perfect for a chocolate lover like me! And easy, to boot!
Kathleen Bushey
Can’t wait to try it. Looks delicious and with only 6 ingredients it’s even better.
Jean
These look so incredibly fudgy and decadent! And under 30 minutes? Sign me up!
Raia Todd
I love how chocolatey these look!
Joni Gomes
Woah these do look incredible fudgy and I’m all about that! I love using almond flour, give it such a great texture.
christina
OMG!! These are perfect! So delicious. Again, thank you for another wonderful and easy recipe! Made these last night, let sit on the counter for about an hour, they were still very soft so I put them in tupperware and left in the fridge overnight. They are so good!!
Kelly
These are so good. Thank you
Celeste
Wow these look amazing! Love how simple your recipes are and all the tips you provide along with.
Doreen
OM Goodness! I’d give these 6 stars if I could! They really hit the spot when I’ve got one of my bad heads and crave something sweet. And so easy!! Thank you Maya!!
Amruta
I substituted half of the butter with coconut oil and used monk fruit sweetener + stevia vanilla creme drops. For the chocolate, I used semi-sweet bakers chocolate bar (since I am only trying to cut down sugar, not out completely) and I also added some baking powder to it which resulted in a pound cake like texture! Baked for 14 minutes. Came out delicious!
Ros
Is it possible to show the quantities required in grams? Cups is confusing and seems to vary depending on the type of ingredients. Recipe itself looks really good.
Thanks, Ros
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Ros, Thank you for the feedback! It’s on my list to support metric conversions on the recipe card. I hope you’ll try the brownies! (Update: Metric conversions are now available on the recipe card. :))
Patti W.
Thanks for posting this recipe. I’m looking for recipes using only stevia as a sweetener, trying to avoid the other ones.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
You’re welcome, Patti! Enjoy the brownies. I have a sweetener conversion calculator if you want to use stevia instead of erythritol.
Diane
I made these the other night and used Swerve. My husband was in heaven with them.
Becca Cougill
Brownies were one of the first things I learned to make from scratch. This recipe is very close to that one. It was my brownies that won my husband over and my brownies he misses the most. I’m going to have to try these very soon.
Kelly
These look soo good! Do you think coconut flour would work? I can’t eat almonds.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Kelly, Unfortunately coconut flour wouldn’t work in this recipe. If you can’t have almond flour, you can try sunflower seed flour instead. Let me know how it goes!
Danella
Would the sunflower seed flour be the same measurement as the almond (I know coconut is different) as I can’t do any nuts either.
Thanks
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yes, it would be the same!
Cheryl
Has anyone tried Swerve or other powdered sweetener yet? Which sweetener, and what quantity? Thanks.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Cheryl, This calls for granulated sweetener, though powdered would probably also work. Use the conversion chart here if you want to use something other than erythritol as written.
Edith
How about a recipe for blonde brownies without cheese, sour cream or coconut? Hopeful. Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you for the suggestion, Edith! I’m adding blondies to my list. 🙂
Kristen
Cake over brownies would NEVER happen for me. I will take these fudgy brownies any day. Especially since they are healthier.
Diane
If I use Swerve as the sweetener, how much would I use?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Diane, Yes, you can! Use the conversion calculator here to convert pure erythritol to Swerve for this keto brownie recipe.
Sima Ruby
Can I substitute erythritol or xylitol for the liquid stevia, and how much would I use of it? Thank you so much.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sima, Yes, you can use erythritol or xylitol. This recipe uses erythritol, but you can use the conversion calculator here if you prefer to use xylitol.
