How To Make The Best No Bake Brownies
Ingredients Needed
You will need only 4 ingredients to make these insanely delicious brownies. Here is a list of them:
- Almond Butter – Provides a rich, nutty flavor and creamy texture to the brownies. It adds moisture and helps bind the ingredients. You can use any smooth nut butter; just ensure it’s 100% nuts with no added sugar or ingredients.
- Sugar-Free Syrup – or keto, use sugar-free syrup; alternatively, maple syrup or honey are great options.
- Cocoa Powder – Delivers the deep chocolate flavor quintessential to brownies.
- Coconut Flour – Absorbs moisture well, helping to create a dense and fudgy texture.
To make these delicious keto no-bake brownies, follow a few simple steps. Trust me, you won’t find an easier recipe.
Making The No Bake Brownie Batter
- Measure out the desired amount of creamy natural almond butter and sugar-free syrup into the bowl.
- Place the bowl in the microwave and heat the almond butter and syrup mixture for approximately 40-45 seconds on high power to make it softer and easier to stir.
- Add the unsweetened cocoa powder to the almond butter mixture.
- Begin adding the coconut flour to the almond butter and cocoa mixture, stirring well after each addition. Continue adding coconut flour until the mixture thickens and forms a dough-like consistency.
- Transfer the thickened brownie mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly, pressing it down firmly with a spatula or your hands.
- Place the baking dish in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the brownie mixture has fully set and hardened.
Tips For The Best No Bake Brownies
- Choose High-Quality Ingredients: To ensure the best flavor and texture, opt for natural almond butter, sugar-free syrup, unsweetened cocoa powder, and coconut flour.
- Mix Thoroughly: Mix the almond butter and syrup until well combined before adding other ingredients. This ensures even sweetness throughout the brownies.
- Press Firmly: When transferring the brownie mixture to the baking dish, press it down firmly with a spatula or your hands to ensure a dense and fudgy texture.
- Chill Thoroughly: Allow the brownies to chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours or until completely set. This ensures they hold their shape when sliced.
- Use Parchment Paper: Line the baking dish with parchment paper to remove the brownies easily and prevent them from sticking.
- Experiment with Add-Ins: Feel free to get creative and add in extras like chopped nuts, sugar-free chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of sea salt for added flavor and texture.
Storing Ideas
- Fridge: Store the brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. This helps to keep them fresh and maintain their texture.
- Freezer: If you want to store the brownies for a longer period, you can freeze them. Wrap individual brownies or place them in a single layer in a freezer-safe container with parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Can I Substitute Almond Butter With Another Nut Butter?
Absolutely! You can use any nut butter as a substitute for almond butter. Just make sure it’s natural and doesn’t contain added sugars or other unwanted ingredients.
I Don’t Have Coconut Flour. Can I Use Almond Flour Instead?
While coconut flour and almond flour have different properties, you can experiment with using almond flour as a substitute. Keep in mind that almond flour is denser, so you may need to adjust the quantities accordingly to achieve the desired consistency.
