>> I'm going to demonstrate how to make our Keto Fudge Brownie.
It's an excellent dessert option for the kids, and they actually taste like fudge.
For this recipe we'll need: oil, eggs, Walden Farms chocolate syrup, butter, soy flour,
erythritol, which is a sweetener, and unsweetened cocoa powder.
The first step for the brownies, you mix together the oil, the egg; we have the Walden Farms
chocolate syrup, mix that in.
This is actually what gives it the fudgy taste and texture, so I definitely recommend using
this in the recipe.
If you don't have it at home, it's available in most grocery stores or online.
Now, we have the melted butter.
You want to be sure that it's melted, either that or very soft at room temperature.
Now, we have all of our wet ingredients in the bowl.
Just going to give that a stir.
Alright, now that that's one mixture, we're going to mix together the soy flour into it.
If you did want to substitute for a different flour, I would possibly recommend almond flour
or hazelnut flour.
The only thing to be aware of though is that soy flour has a consistency just as regular
flour would.
It's very fine and very smooth.
However, other flours, such as almond or hazelnut, they have a gritty texture to them, so the
brownies won't exactly be the same, but they still will taste OK.
We have the erythritol.
Erythritol is a sweetener.
It's allowed on the keto diet, and it's the only sweetener we have that is in powder form.
It actually resembles sugar to the T.
If you would look at it, it's powdery, it has a sugar consistency.
If you sprinkle it on top of cookies, it actually has a bite to it, which is definitely great
for this diet.
And then we have unsweetened cocoa powder.
We use this as the carbohydrate in this recipe.
If you would like to use a different carbohydrate, maybe you want to use something on the side,
you can definitely do that; just note that it won't be as chocolaty.
Of course we have the Walden Farms chocolate sauce, but their cocoa powder lends a natural
chocolate flavor to the brownie.
We're going to give that all a stir.
Now keep in mind, all of these ingredients have already been weighed ahead of time.
When you're calculating this to your own personal meal plan, you might have more batter; you
might have less, but typically it'll be around maybe like two to six brownies, depending
on also which mold you use.
Here, we're going to be using a mini muffin pan.
As you can see, it's a silicone mold.
You can, however, use a metal or steel or whatever you use in your home kitchen.
So, I've already greased this ahead of time using nonstick cooking spray.
You definitely want to use that no matter what pan you use.
This batter will stick to the sides, so you want to ensure that when you're removing the
brownies, they don't stick.
So now, you scoop the batter into the muffin molds.
You want to evenly distribute it into each muffin mold.
The reason why is because when you're baking something, you want to be sure that all of
the ingredients are baking at the exact same time.
So, if I put less in this one and more in that one, the one with less would finish baking
first before the larger one.
So you want to ensure they're all the same size.
Now, I'll place them in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes until they're firm.
The brownies are all done baking.
I'll carefully remove it and set it down.
Gently remove the brownies from the silicone mold or the muffin pan.
They should pop out very easily though.
As you can see, they're very dark in color.
They look chocolaty.
There you go.
And that is the recipe for our Keto Fudge Brownies.
I hope your keto kid enjoys this.
>>If you do not have erythritol or you're not accustomed to cooking with it, you can
use other artificial sweeteners like liquid stevia or liquid saccharin.
