Three almond flour brownies in a pile on a plate.

Almond Flour Brownies

These easy 8-ingredient recipe is so easy. They are tasty and rich, boasting vanilla and almond flavors in each bite.
Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:35 minutes
Total Time:50 minutes
Servings:16 brownies

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 eggs large
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Leave some parchment paper hanging over both ends of the pan for easy removal later. Set aside.
  • Mix the melted butter, white sugar, salt, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and eggs in a large mixing bowl until well combined. Then stir in the almond flour and baking powder.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for about 35 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean from the center.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes, and then lift out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into squares. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use unsweetened, processed cocoa powder for the best result. If you want a stronger chocolate flavor, add some mini chocolate chips to the brownie batter.
  • Use a square baking dish so you get lots of ‘edge pieces’ (these are my favorites!)
  • Add in some extra ingredients if you like. Chopped walnuts or pecans would be really nice here. Mini marshmallows could be good too.
