Steps by step instructions

How to make these low carb pumpkin brownies?

STEP 1: Preheat the Oven - Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8 x 8-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper. This will ensure easy removal of the brownies.

STEP 2: Mix Dry Ingredients and Add Wet for the Base - In a single mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and powdered sweetener. Mix these dry components together until well incorporated.

Then, add the large eggs, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix everything together with a rubber spatula until you achieve a uniform base for your brownie batter.

STEP 3: Divide and Flavor - Using two medium-sized bowls, divide the base mixture in half. To one-half, add the pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice, mixing until well combined.

In the other half, add the cocoa powder and espresso powder, again mixing thoroughly. Finally, fold the sugar-free chocolate chips into the cocoa mixture.

STEP 4: Layer and Swirl - Begin by spreading the chocolate base mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Next, carefully spoon the pumpkin base mixture on top of the chocolate base. Use a butter knife to create a swirling pattern by gently running it through the two layers. This will create a beautiful marbled effect.

STEP 5: Bake to Perfection - Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Be sure to keep an eye on the brownies to avoid overbaking. Once done, remove them from the oven and let them cool in the baking dish for a bit before slicing and enjoying your delicious and healthy pumpkin brownies!

Recipe tips

Here are two recipe tips for making your these sugar free pumpkin chocolate brownies:

• Use High-Quality Cocoa Powder: To achieve the best chocolate flavor in your brownies, opt for high-quality cocoa powder. Premium cocoa powder will provide a richer and more intense chocolate taste, enhancing the overall quality of your brownies.
• Let Them Cool Completely: For the perfect texture and flavor, allow your brownies to cool completely in the baking dish before cutting and serving. This resting period allows them to set and develop their fudgy consistency. If you can resist the temptation, the wait will be worth it for a superior brownie experience.

Storage

To store your diabetic friendly pumpkin brownies:

• Room Temperature: If you plan to consume the brownies within a day or two, you can store them at room temperature in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic wrap. Make sure they are fully cooled before storing.
• Refrigeration: For longer storage, it's advisable to keep the brownies in the refrigerator. Place them in an airtight container to prevent them from drying out or absorbing any odors from the fridge. They can typically stay fresh for up to a week when refrigerated.
• Freezing: To store brownies for an extended period, consider freezing them. Wrap individual brownie squares tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place them in an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag. Properly stored, brownies can remain good in the freezer for up to 2-3 months. Thaw them at room temperature or in the refrigerator before enjoying.

Remember to separate layers with parchment paper or wax paper to prevent sticking when stacking brownies in containers or bags.
