Ingredients
5 | ounces Callebaut unsweetened chocolate (available in blocks from Whole Foods), chopped fine |
---|---|
1 | cup melted butter |
3 | large eggs |
2.67 | cups granular Swerve (sifted) |
2.67 | cups sour cream |
2.67 | cups almond flour |
1.33 | cups powdered [Drost] 100% Cocoa |
1 | tablespoon culinary gelatin (Great Lakes Wellness, unflavored beef gelatin; I assume any will work) |
1⁄2 | tablespoon baking powder |
1 | teaspoon vanilla |
2 | tablespoons Black Walnut extract |
3 | cups chopped Black Walnuts |
Instructions
1. | Prepare an 8x8 metal baking pan by lining it with parchment paper and spraying it for better non-stick. |
---|---|
2. | Divide the ingredients into 3 bowls: (1) finely chopped Callebaut unsweetened chocolate; (2) eggs and granular Swerve sweetener; (3) almond flour, cocoa powder, and culinary gelatin sifted together. |
3. | In a bowl, beat the egg and Swerve mixture until it turns into a light yellow froth. Add vanilla, Black Walnut extract, sour cream, and mix until it reaches a light consistency. |
4. | Combine the melted butter with the chopped chocolate, ensuring it is relatively cool. Add this chocolate-butter mixture to the egg mixture and beat well. |
5. | Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, ensuring to mix well while retaining as much air as possible. |
6. | Carefully fold in the chopped Black Walnuts and pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. |
7. | Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 45 minutes. The brownie will rise as it bakes and firm up well. |
8. | Once baked, remove the brownie from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan on a wire rack. Then, lift the brownie using the parchment paper and let it cool completely before cutting into squares. |
