I am a total sucker for brownies. They involve my two favorite things: baked good + CHOCOLATE. Yep, sign me up!
Since I began following a ketogenic way of eating, I hadn’t enjoyed a brownie, so this recipe has been longggg overdue. Finally, after some alterations, I can say that this recipe will forever be on repeat in the Nelson household.
Fudgy, Chocolatey Goodness!
These Keto Brownies are low in carbs, but full of all of the flavor and texture you love about brownies!
Allergy- and Diet-Friendly (Dairy-Free, Vegetarian, Paleo)
I tweaked this recipe multiple times to ensure that the result tasted like traditional store-bought brownies, but could remain dairy-free. For anyone with a dairy or lactose allergy or intolerance that also loves brownies, this recipe is sure to become an instant favorite!

can you use coconut sugar in place of the monk fruit sweetener?
Yes, but they just won’t be low-carb/keto then.
Hi Sara. I have just made these. I mixed all dry n
Ingredients together to start with and I think here you said slowly mix in almond flour did you ean coconut oil? Once done my mixture was not pourable or even spreadable so I had to add about 1/3 rd cup of almond milk. It has just come out of the oven and is cooling so I’ll get back to you about how this worked. Just wanted to know if your recipe had the correct instructions? Thanks 🙂
hi, Angela! The two eggs and melted coconut oil should be enough liquid! I did just go in and rephrase step #4 so that it is more clear. Thank you for that feedback!! I hope yours worked out with the addition of the almond milk (I would think they would!).
I started Keto a few weeks ago and I’m really enjoying your recipes. But, I’m allergic to almonds so I can’t make recipes using almond flour. Is it possible to use coconut or pecan flour or do you have recipes for alternative flours? I’d appreciate it very much.
hi, Tannia! Thanks so much for your comment! So, nut flours and coconut flour are all very different, so I can’t say for sure how well they would replace one another in specific recipes. I do have a Fudge Fat Bombs recipe that uses coconut flour (you can sub the almond butter for another nut butter of your choosing). I really appreciate that feedback and am going to work hard on getting more nut-free recipes tested and developed!
