Brownie recipe

(Cynthia Anderson) #1

A while back I made some brownies for a diabetic friend.

I remember they had almond flour splenda and cocoa.
It did not use xatham gum
I think it had eggs.

I also think those were the only four ingredients.

Does anybody have a recipe for brownies resembling this.

They were very good. I’ve searched the internet and can’t find the recipe again.

kinda close :thinking:
Just don’t use the Lily’s
And use ur Splenda instead of erithytol?

OP was looking for something simple
So, I was shooting for that
Saving an additional purchase :grin:

Lily’s is Fine of course!
Yup
It will add 10 net carbs too
Some added sugar alcohols

So w the 12 brownies , a little less than the 1 added NC per brownie

To each their own🤣

Oh I see, got it, thanks for clarifying :slight_smile:

Why not use erythritol or Lily’s chocolate? Splenda has more carbs unless you do the liquid form.

Splenda has very little carbs and it’s what I have and like.

Attempt 1 didn’t go so well. I’ll try again tomorrow.

This (keto mama) is the recipe I use too. I halve/half everything and don’t use the chocolate chips (because I don’t have any) but it doesn’t need them anyway.

Sure…Give it at try😄

For me, I personally would not use lilys like @Clcrisler
I would also try to get away w no sweetener or stevia on the 1st batch
Then just top w a tab of butter!

Awesome WOE!
One can modify just about any KETO recipe to their liking
And for me, still be fat adapted either way🤣

Any other recipes. I don’t like this one.

I made this one he other day. I cut the butter to about 6 Tbs, and upped sweetner to a cup (ground up the erythritol in my coffee grinder) and melted the butter together with the cocoa, erythritol and vanilla in the microwave (slowly) rather than in a double boiler. It was quite easy and quick. Watch for the last couple minutes so they dont overbake. I divided into 8 muffin-size portions. They keep really well, and I like to warm them for about 15 secs and top with whipped cream =) Carb count I get when adding everything up and dividing by 8 is 2.2

Thanks for the link. I very rarely crave sweets anymore, but once in a while…

Just popped a pan in the oven- added unsweetened coconut and chopped mac nuts (I like to be extra whenever possible).

I’ll chime in later with my assessment!
