These are the best low-carb brownies you'll ever taste! I think they taste just like the real thing. You just might fool the biggest chocoholic with this one!

This brownie recipe is amazing, the original recipe can be found here, I can't take credit for it. I did make some edits, but this one belongs to the incredible Laura Dolson over at VerywellFit.com. She's fantastic and I love her stuff, you should check her out!

These are just like the real thing. Texture, taste, everything is fantastic about these. My favorite part of brownies is that crispy crust on top of the brownie and the gooey fudgy center. This recipe delivers exactly that perfect combination and it's so awesome. I highly recommend a cold glass of your favorite milk (I prefer cashew milk) with these. They are rich!

I was definitely pleased with the outcome of this recipe and I'll definitely make them again. I think I'll use only almond flour and skip the flax in the future just to make them completely grain-free. I might also try them in a brownie pan that is all edges. I love those chewy corner pieces!

Shop Brownie Pans on Amazon!

For those of you that are dairy-free, I have a dairy-free version of this recipe in the works, but for now, you can try these ultimate fudge keto brownies.

Delicious, definitely a must-try recipe! Just don't eat too many of these low-carb brownies at once, they are very high in fiber due to the flax meal!
