Can I Use Coconut Flour Instead of Almond Flour?

No. Coconut flour absorbs a lot more liquid, so the brownies will turn out dry and crumbly. If you must use coconut flour, use only ¼ cup and add an extra egg.

Can I Make These Dairy-Free?

Yes! Swap out the butter for coconut oil and use dairy-free cream cheese. The texture might change slightly, but they’ll still be delicious.

Will Brownies Kick Me Out of Ketosis?

Nope! Each brownie has only 2-3g net carbs, depending on the sweetener you use. As long as you keep your carb intake low for the day, these won’t affect ketosis.

Instructions

Preheat the Oven – Set your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
Make the Brownie Batter – In a bowl, whisk melted butter and sweetener until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, then mix again. In another bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Slowly stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until well combined.
Make the Matcha Swirl – In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until creamy. Add powdered sweetener, matcha powder, and egg yolk. Mix until smooth.
Assemble the Brownies – Pour the brownie batter into the baking dish and spread evenly. Drop spoonfuls of the matcha mixture on top and swirl with a toothpick or knife.
Bake – Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is slightly soft. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool & Slice – Let the brownies cool completely before slicing. For the best texture, chill in the fridge for an hour before cutting.

Notes

Use high-quality matcha for the best color and flavor.
Don’t overbake—the brownies will set more as they cool.
For extra fudginess, chill overnight before eating.
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
