    Gooey fall apart homemade flourless brownies are one kitchen step away from being in your tummy! These very chocolatey fudgy treats are so rich and delicious, you will have to try them this weekend – completely sugar free and gluten free!

    What goes into low carb flourless brownies

    Butter – fudgy brownies MUST have butter and since we are doing gluten free baking, butter is a must.

    Dark cocoa powder – The key to a successful low carb brownie recipe is using dark cocoa powder (the one with alkali).

    Monk fruit extract instead of sugar is what will make your homemade brownies so guilt free to eat. Not compromising their fudginess.

    Almond Flour – The combination of these ingredients plus almond flour will deliver that perfect rich brownie without having to worry about any extra pounds.

    Melted low carb chocolate – And to make an absolute best keto brownie, melt a generous amount of low carb chocolate bar on top of the brownies.

    Vanilla – Pure Vanilla Extract is better in flavor than imitation vanilla.

    Salt – I always include salt in baking to include as a touch of salt brings out the flavor of other ingredients. It doesn’t make these brownies salty at all.

    Baking soda – Makes these beauties rise.

    Eggs – Eggs bind these gluten free brownies instead of gluten.

    Sugar free chocolate bar – amazing when melted on top of the brownies.

    Why use almond flour

    Low carb flour – Almond flour is well known as a best flour substitute on keto diets. It’s made from crushed almonds and is extremely low in carbs, containing only 3 grams of total carbs and 1 gram of net carbs per 2-tablespoon serving.

    Gluten free – Made from 100 percent almonds, almond flour is naturally gluten free, making it an easy choice for these flourless brownies.

    Texture and taste – Last but not least, using almond flour instead of wheat flour adds lovely undertones of nuttiness to the brownies as well as moisture and richness. Fudginess, here we come.Win, win!

      Monk fruit what? I’m assuming powder. Let me know if it is extract. Thanks, Shelly
