Why You'll Love This Recipe
About the Ingredients
1 1/2 cups (180g) almond flour
Almond flour is the low-carb base. Substitute with sunflower seed flour for a nut-free option, but note it may turn green due to chlorophyll.
1/2 cup (60g) coconut flour
Coconut flour absorbs moisture well. If substituting, use only 1/4 cup more almond flour, as coconut flour is highly absorbent.
1/2 cup (120g) butter, melted
Use unsalted butter for control over salt. For dairy-free, use coconut oil or ghee.
3 large eggs
Eggs provide structure. For an egg-free version, use flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water per egg).
1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
Heavy cream adds richness. Replace with full-fat coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
1/4 cup (60ml) sugar-free syrup
Use a good quality sugar-free syrup like monk fruit or erythritol-based. Adjust sweetness to taste.
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pure vanilla extract enhances flavor. Use vanilla bean paste for a more intense aroma.
1/2 tsp baking powder
Ensure it's gluten-free if needed. This helps the desserts rise.
1/4 tsp salt
Salt balances sweetness. Pink Himalayan salt adds minerals.
1/4 cup (40g) sugar-free chocolate chips
Choose chips sweetened with stevia or erythritol. Chop a dark chocolate bar (90% cacao) for a lower carb option.
Tips & Tricks
- Measure almond flour and coconut flour correctly: spoon into the cup and level off, don't pack.
- Don't overmix the batter; mix until just combined to keep the desserts tender.
- Let the desserts cool completely before removing from the pan; they set as they cool.
Pro Tips
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line with parchment paper.
2. Mix dry ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. This ensures even distribution.
3. Combine wet ingredients
In another bowl, mix melted butter, eggs, heavy cream, sugar-free syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
5. Pour and bake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Cool and serve
Allow the dessert to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve.
Delicious Variations
- Add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for a crunchy texture.
- Swap chocolate chips with fresh berries for a fruity twist.
- Add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg for a spiced version.

Frequently Asked Questions
