Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 °C/ 350 °F.
- Break the chocolate in pieces.
- Place a bowl over a pot of water and bring to boil.
- Keep on low heat and make sure the water doesn't touch the bowl (or use a double boiler).
- Add the butter and let it melt, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, place the eggs in a mixer like this one from Kenwood.
- You can use a hand whisk too.
- Add the stevia drops (if used), ...
- ...
- and Erythritol and process until well combined.
- Halve the avocado and remove the seed.
- Use a spoon and scoop the avocado flesh into a blender.
- Add coconut milk and pulse until smooth and creamy.
- Add the blended avocado into the egg mixture and process until well combined.
- Pour in the melted chocolate & butter and mix until creamy.
- Mix all the remaining dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, cacao powder, baking powder and salt.
- Add the dry mixture into the mixer and process until well combined.
- Place the dough in a baking dish (I used a silicone square baking dish like this one).
- Flatten with a spatula and transfer into the oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until set.
- Keep an eye on the brownie to prevent the top from burning.
- When done, remove from the oven and let it cool down on a cooling rack.
- When the brownie is hot, it will be crumbly.
- It will be easy to cut after it cools down.
- Enjoy with whipped cream or creamed coconut milk and cacao powder or cinnamon on top!
