3 Ingredient Keto Brownie Recipe Ingredients

When I say these keto brownies are fool-proof, I’m not exaggerating. You only need one bowl and three ingredients-

• Homemade or store-bought chocolate spread 
• Almond Flour 
• Eggs or Flax Eggs 

Can you use almond meal instead of almond flour? 

You sure can! If you are a fan of textures, using almond meal would even be a better option- It is slightly grittier and the nutty flavor really shines through. Saying that, for uber fudgy gooey keto brownies, I’d stick with almond flour for consistencies sake. 

Can you replace the almond meal with coconut flour?

Not for this recipe, sorry! Coconut flour is very tricky to work with and cannot be replaced cup-for-cup in any recipe of mine. 

Can you use another flour? 

YES!

If you don’t follow a particular diet or have any restrictions, whole wheat flour, and white wheat flour both work. If you choose to use either of them, you’d need to check the cooking time earlier and be wary that the final result will be more cakey than fudgy.

Eggs or Flax Eggs? 

Unless you are a strict vegan, I would recommend using eggs over the flax egg option. Using a flax egg (ground flaxseed) will actually yield a super crinkly top, but the overall flavor is more gritty and somewhat oily. 

How to make a flax egg

It’s easy! 

This recipe calls for 4 eggs so you’d use the flax equivalent of that. For ONE flax egg, here are the details-

• 1 tablespoon of ground flax 
• 3 tablespoons of cold water

1. In a small bowl, combine your ground flax with your cold water and mix well. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, to form a gel-like substance. This is your egg!

As mentioned, this recipe calls for 4 eggs, so you’d do 1/4 cup ground flax and 12 tablespoons of cold water. Ensure you refrigerate it longer to compensate for it! 

How to make homemade chocolate spread

The beauty of homemade chocolate spread is that YOU are in control of how much sweetness you add in AND which nuts you want to use. I’ve tried hazelnuts, peanuts, and almonds, and have found them all to work well especially hazelnuts- It’s like a healthy homemade Nutella recipe! 

To make a homemade chocolate nut butter, you’ll just need a good quality food processor or a high speed-blender (with ice crushing capabilities) and you’ll be set!

• 2 cups nuts of choice (hazelnuts, peanuts, and almonds all work best)
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• Sweetener, to taste

1. Add the nuts of choice to the blender/food processor and pulse until crumbly. Ensure you regularly scrape down the sides! 
2. Once smooth, add your cocoa powder and sweetener and continue blending/pulsing until your desired texture is achieved
