Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup erythritol
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chopped pistachios
- 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol, and baking powder until well combined and uniform in texture.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour melted butter, crack in the eggs, and add vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Stir thoroughly until you get a smooth, well-integrated batter.
- Fold in Nuts and Chocolate: Gently fold the chopped pistachios and sugar-free chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring an even distribution without overmixing.
- Pour Batter into Pan: Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula for uniform thickness.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before slicing into 16 squares. This cooling step helps the brownies set nicely for clean cuts and optimal texture.
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature eggs to help the batter blend smoothly.
- You can substitute erythritol with another keto-friendly sweetener like monk fruit if preferred.
- Store leftover brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- To enhance the Ferrero Rocher theme, drizzle melted sugar-free chocolate over the cooled brownies before serving.
- Feel free to toast the pistachios lightly before adding for extra depth of flavor.
