Keto Brownie Bites With Toasted Coconut

These keto brownie bites are not your average brownies. These are little decadent treats that feature a drizzle of chocolate ganache and toasted coconut flakes.   

And since these brownie bites are made with almond flour and sugar-free sweetener, they are also gluten-free, grain-free, low in carbs, and keto-friendly.  

What’s nice about low-carb brownie bites is that they have built-in portion control. Having brownies that are automatically small in size makes it less tempting than say a sheet of just-baked brownies with undefined portions.  

I get it, after all, it can be challenging to have the willpower to not keep having one more brownie, even if it’s keto. Unfortunately, those macros can add up quickly and before you know it, you’ve had too many carbs.   

Look, just because something is keto-friendly, doesn’t give you a license to eat unrestrained. You will still need to watch your carbs and calories.   

This recipe was inspired by our very popular brownie recipe, Michelle’s keto brownies. It’s one I created for my daughter’s need to transform her traditional favorite brownie recipe.

It’s a winner of a recipe and why it made perfect sense to make to use that recipe as the base of a new one. 

Keto Brownie Bites 

My solution is a recipe for rich keto brownie bites that will satisfy your chocolate cravings easily. The best part besides it being a delicious option is that these brownies only 1 net carb including the chocolate ganache topping and toasted coconut sprinkle.  

And if you leave the topping out, well then these brownie bites are under 1 net carb. This means you can have a couple of brownie bites and still be within your allotted macros

In order to keep these brownie bites ultra-low in carbs, I swap out the traditional white flour for almond flour, use both cocoa powder and baking chocolate to give them the richest most chocolatey flavor and of course, use a sugar substitute that has zero glycemic impact. 

How To Make Keto-Friendly Brownie Bites With Toasted Coconut

The batter for these brownies is made in over a double-boiler and I think it’s what ensures the richest flavor and best texture. 

If you do not have a double-boiler, you can make your own by placing a large glass mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water.  Just make sure you do not allow the bowl to touch the hot water. The use of a double boiler means that you are cooking with steam.

You will start off by adding your butter to the bowl and allowing it to gently melt and then adding sugar-substitute, baking chocolate, and cocoa powder.

Once that comes together you’ll need to reduce the heat before adding the eggs and vanilla extract.  Then, you can add the finely milled almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the bowl and gently stir until it’s all well combined.

At this point, you are ready to add the batter into the mini muffin tins.  You will need to bake these in a mini muffin pan to keep them bite-sized.

I recommend you use a silicone 24 mini pan or a non-stick 24 mini pan. This way you can skip the use of mini liners. I still recommend you grease the muffin pans even if you are using a silicone or non-stick pan.

I would rather be safe than sorry when it comes to baking these.  Since the recipe makes 32 minis, Below are the ingredients you’ll need.

Ingredients Needed

• Almond flour
• Cocoa powder
• Baking chocolate
• Granulated sugar substitute
• Sugar-free chocolate chips, for the ganache topping
• Unsweetened coconut flakes, for topping
• Eggs
• Butter
• Vanilla extract
• Baking powder
• Salt

Best Sugar-Substitutes For Brownie Bites

My top choice is a monk fruit/erythritol blend. My personal favorite is Lakanto’s brand. But you can also use Swerve an erythritol sugar substitute. 

You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure for most of my baked goods. However, if using Pyure you will want to use half the amount called for in this recipe since it’s a much sweeter choice. 

I will also add that I am not a fan of using stevia in chocolate-based recipes, in my opinion, it intensifies the aftertaste of stevia.

But if stevia is your preferred choice then feel free to use the Pyure brand.

My failed attempts when I first went keto are what caused me to be very intentional with my Keto Baking recipes like these brownies.

I threw away so many ingredients in the beginning and I never want anyone to be so frustrated that they give up on the diet before they can see long-lasting results. 

Even though those early days were not fun, the fact that I stayed the course has made this journey very rewarding. Besides, if I had quit at the first sign of struggle, I would not have had the opportunity to engage with you all.

I sure hope you give this recipe a try and that once you do you will take a moment to tag us on Instagram and Facebook. It’s what keeps us encouraged to keep sharing and perfecting our recipes.

Join Our Jesus And Keto Movement 

Our family came to the keto diet looking at it from a Christian perspective. As believers, we live our entire lives supported by God’s grace.

So when the Holy Spirit led us to combine our Christian faith and the keto diet, we did so in hopes of finding lasting transformation.

To say we needed God’s intervention is putting it mildly. When we followed the Holy Spirit’s prompting to we got on the path to real transformation. 

Knowing firsthand the benefits of this decision we have created a closed Christian group that is using the keto diet to transform their lives. 

I love how supportive and encouraging this group of believers is. It’s exciting to see how people are transforming their lives by combining this lifestyle with the Christian faith. 

We invite you to join our Private Facebook Group and see if it’s not the key you have been missing.
