Keto Chocolate Chip Brownies

Craving chocolate while watching your carbs? These fudgy keto chocolate chip brownies are low in net carbs, loaded with rich flavor, and bake up in under 30 minutes, without messing your macros.

Let's be honest: sticking to a keto lifestyle doesn't mean your sweet tooth disappears. The dense, chewy bite of a classic brownie is hard to beat. But most traditional brownie recipes are packed with sugar and flour, definitely not keto-approved.

That's why I created these low-carb, sugar-free chocolate chip brownies.

They're everything you love about classic brownies, minus the carbs and gluten. Whether you're deep into keto or just trying to cut back on sugar, this recipe proves you can have your brownie and eat it too.

Why These Keto Chocolate Chip Brownies Are a Game-Changer

Most store-bought or homemade brownies contain over 20g of carbs per square. But these keto-friendly brownies come in at just 3g net carbs per serving, thanks to a few simple ingredient swaps.

You still get the indulgent, fudgy texture and rich chocolate flavor you expect, without the sugar crash.

Sugar Substitute Options

The sweetener you choose plays a big role in both taste and texture. Here's what I recommend:  

• Top Pick: Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener-Closest taste to real sugar, with no bitter aftertaste.
  
• Also Great: Swerve -An erythritol blend that measures cup-for-cup like sugar.
  
• Alternative: Pyure -A stevia and erythritol blend if you're not sensitive to stevia's aftertaste.
  
• Budget-Friendly Option: Splenda -can also work well in this recipe if natural options aren't available.

Personally, I skip pure stevia in chocolate recipes due to the aftertaste, but it's all about what works for your taste buds.

Best Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips for Keto Brownies

When it comes to sugar-free chocolate chips,Lily's semi-sweet baking chips are my top choice.

They melt beautifully, have a smooth texture, and offer just the right amount of sweetness for keto desserts.

If you prefer a bolder, more intense chocolate flavor, try Lily's dark chocolate chips, they add a deeper cocoa richness while keeping your macros in check.

Both varieties deliver consistent, delicious results in this brownie recipe.

Can't find Lily's? Hershey's sugar-free chocolate chips are a great alternative and widely available. They also melt well and have a pleasant flavor that complements the brownies perfectly.
