Keto Brownies Recipe (with avocado)

For the most part, I don’t find myself craving sweets too often on a low carb diet, and certainly far less when I was in ketosis. But sometimes you do want a sweet treat. Thankfully, there are ways to to enjoy a treat without swaying from your diet and without eating something that has little to no nutritional value. This keto brownies recipe is a great option when you are craving a low carb treat.

Double chocolately fudge keto goodness, yes please!

This recipe is not nut free, it uses almond butter, but you can substitute a nut-free butter without any issues. It also uses a small amount of erythritol. I do think you could leave the sweetener out and they would still taste great, but I haven’t tried it.
