Miracle Brownies - 1g Effective Carbs, 3g Fiber
From Laura Dolson, Your Guide to Low Carb Diets
My daughter considers these brownies a miracle because they so
nutritious at the same time as being delicious. I don’t mind if
she eats more than usual. They are exactly the texture of
"regular" brownies, with none of the glycemic effect. You do
need erythritol (though xylitol would probably work, it’s sweeter).
If you like a more bittersweet brownie, cut down on the artificial
sweetener (but not the erythritol).
1/4 lb butter (1 stick)
2 cup erythritol
1 Tbsp vanilla
4 eggs (room temp is best)
1/2 cup cocoa
1 tsp salt
4 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted
2 cup flax seed meal
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/3 cup cream
2/3 cup water
1 cup sweetening power from artificial sweetener
1 cup walnuts (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 F. and butter a 9X13 pan.
1) Cream the butter until fluffy.
2) Add the erythritol, and cream together until fully combined and
fluffy-ish.
3) Add the vanilla and the eggs, one at a time, beating between
each one.
4) Add salt and cocoa, beat well.
5) Add chocolate, beat until fluffy.
6) Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well to combine.
Pour into pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, until top springs back
and/or toothpick comes out clean or almost-so.
Cut when cool into 32 brownies.
If you cheat and eat one warm, know that the texture is going to
keep changing until they are completely cool. That’s when they
become fully brownies. (They are even better the next day.)
