Notes
- Remove brownies from the oven when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs sticking to it.
- Add less almond flour if you prefer fudgier brownies.
- You can substitute almond flour with coconut flour to create a nut-free version.
- Incorporating baking powder into the keto brownie batter results in a lighter bake with a slightly cakier texture.
- Monk fruit sweetener is a suitable alternative to xylitol.
- To create different low-carb brownie versions, add nuts, sugar-free chocolate chips, vanilla extract, or a little nut butter to the brownie batter.
