Ingredients
  

1/2 cup coconut flour

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup granulated erythritol (or another keto-friendly sweetener of your choice)

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal after baking.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the coconut flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Use a whisk to blend these dry ingredients thoroughly, ensuring there are no lumps for a smooth brownie texture.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk these ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well mixed, creating a rich base for your brownies.

        Incorporate the Mixtures: Gradually pour the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. Stir the combined mixture until fully integrated; you may find it thickens up. Use a spatula to make sure the batter is uniformly combined.

          Add Optional Ingredients: If you choose to enhance your brownies with sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts, gently fold them into the batter at this stage for a delightful crunch and extra chocolatey flavor.

            Transfer to Baking Pan: Carefully transfer the brownie batter into your prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly across the pan for uniform baking.

              Bake to Perfection: Place the pan in your preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, indicating your brownies are perfectly cooked.

                Cooling and Slicing: After baking, allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once fully cooled, slice them into squares for serving.

                  Storage Tips: Store any leftover brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where they will stay fresh for up to a week. For longer storage, you can freeze them, ensuring a stock of delicious treats ready to enjoy!
