If you’re on a quest for brownies that don’t come with the guilt of sugar and processed ingredients, then you’re in the right place. These Sugar-Free Brownies with Walnuts are just as fudgy, rich, and delicious as the traditional kind, but with a much healthier twist. Whether you’re keto, low-carb, or just looking for a better way to enjoy sweets, these brownies will satisfy your chocolate cravings without the sugar spike.
Traditional brownies often get their signature fudginess from butter and sugar, but we’re changing things up with Earth Balance instead of dairy butter and Monksweet+ with Stevia for the sweetener. Earth Balance provides the richness you’d expect from butter while keeping the brownies dairy-free and heart-healthy.
As for sweetness, Monksweet+ with Stevia is the perfect alternative to sugar. It blends monk fruit with stevia, both natural sweeteners that bring sweetness without any of the negative health impacts associated with sugar. This allows you to indulge in these brownies without worrying about blood sugar spikes, making them great for anyone following a low-sugar or keto lifestyle.
One of the standout ingredients in these brownies is Einkorn flour. If you’re unfamiliar, Einkorn is an ancient grain that’s easier to digest than modern wheat and is known for its high protein and lower gluten content. While it’s not gluten-free, it’s often better tolerated by those who are sensitive to modern wheat.
Using Einkorn flour in these brownies gives them a beautifully soft texture while keeping things light. It’s also full of essential nutrients like magnesium, B vitamins, and antioxidants, adding a nutritional boost that’s hard to find in traditional baked goods.
No brownie is complete without a bit of crunch, and the addition of walnuts in this recipe brings a perfect balance of textures. Not only do they add a satisfying crunch to each bite, but walnuts are also incredibly nutrient-dense, loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and heart-healthy fats.
These nuts also complement the deep chocolate flavor of the brownies beautifully. Their mild bitterness adds complexity to the sweetness of the Monksweet+ and the richness of the chocolate, making each bite more exciting than the last.
What’s great about these Sugar-Free Brownies with Walnuts is how customizable they are. If you prefer a nut-free version, simply leave out the walnuts, or replace them with a different mix-in like pecans, sugar-free chocolate chips, or shredded coconut.
Want to kick up the chocolate factor? A sprinkle of cocoa nibs or a drizzle of melted sugar-free chocolate on top will take these brownies to the next level. For an extra layer of flavor, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a touch of cinnamon to the batter.
These brownies aren’t just a dessert—they can be enjoyed anytime you need a snack or a treat. The low sugar content and wholesome ingredients make them suitable for a quick pick-me-up in the afternoon, a post-workout snack, or even a light dessert after dinner. Pair one with a cup of your favorite tea or coffee, and you’ve got a satisfying, guilt-free treat.
What sets this recipe apart is that it doesn’t compromise on flavor or texture while still keeping things healthy. They’re rich and fudgy, with a perfectly dense crumb that melts in your mouth, all while providing a boost of nutrients from the Einkorn flour and walnuts. Plus, they’re completely free from refined sugars, meaning you can indulge without worry.
Throughout my weight loss journey, I’ve tried many types of flour and flour substitutes depending on the diet I was following at the time. Out of all the flours I’ve tried, the one I keep returning to time and time again is einkorn flour. Read more
To be perfectly honest, I’m not a fan of drinking my calories/meals because I prefer eating real food. Chewing and tasting food adds to the pleasure of eating, but I recognize that sometimes we just don’t have enough time to prepare healthy, nutritious meals. Read more
If you’ve been looking for grain-free, Paleo-friendly bread that’s both versatile and easy to make, look no further than this Paleo Flatbread. Made with coconut flour and psyllium husk powder, this flatbread comes together quickly with just a few ingredients and is cooked on the stovetop for a quick and easy bread substitute. Whether you’re avoiding gluten, grains, or eggs, this recipe is a winner.
What makes this flatbread unique is that it doesn’t rely on eggs for structure, unlike many other Paleo breads. Instead, psyllium husk powder works as a binder, giving the flatbread its chewy texture and helping it hold together without falling apart. Psyllium husk is high in fiber, making it a great addition for those looking to add more fiber to their diet while keeping things grain-free.
Coconut flour provides a light, yet sturdy base for this flatbread. It’s low in carbs and high in fiber, making it a popular choice for anyone following a Paleo or keto lifestyle. Its natural sweetness goes well with both savory and sweet toppings, making this flatbread incredibly versatile.
Making this Paleo Flatbread is surprisingly simple. All you need is a combination of coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, warm water, and a pinch of salt to get started. The warm water is key—it activates the psyllium husk, giving the dough its elasticity and ensuring that the flatbread stays pliable and soft.
To prepare the dough, you simply mix the dry ingredients together, then slowly add the warm water. Once the dough forms, you let it rest for a few minutes, allowing the psyllium husk to absorb the moisture and thicken the mixture. After resting, the dough is ready to be shaped and cooked in a skillet.
Unlike traditional breads that require baking in the oven, this Paleo Flatbread is cooked on the stovetop, making it quick to prepare. You can use a regular skillet or a cast iron pan to cook the flatbreads. Simply heat your pan over medium heat, lightly oil it if necessary, and cook the flatbread for a few minutes on each side until it’s golden brown and cooked through.
The beauty of cooking the flatbread in a skillet is that it gives the bread a nice, crispy exterior while keeping the inside soft and chewy. You’ll know it’s ready when you see those lovely golden-brown spots on both sides.
This flatbread’s versatility is one of its best qualities. You can enjoy it as a sandwich wrap, taco shell, or even as a pizza base. It’s sturdy enough to hold all your favorite toppings, yet soft enough to enjoy on its own with a little bit of ghee, butter, or olive oil.
For breakfast, try topping the flatbread with scrambled eggs, avocado, or nut butter for a hearty, satisfying meal. For lunch or dinner, use it as a wrap for grilled chicken, roasted veggies, or even curry. And if you’re craving something sweet, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup over the warm flatbread is a simple but delicious treat.
Both coconut flour and psyllium husk powder are stars when it comes to nutrition. Coconut flour is full of healthy fats, fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and potassium. It’s also naturally low in carbs, making it a great choice for those following a low-carb or keto diet.
Psyllium husk powder, on the other hand, is an excellent source of soluble fiber. It helps promote healthy digestion, supports gut health, and can help regulate blood sugar levels. Plus, because psyllium husk acts as a natural binder, it eliminates the need for eggs in this recipe, making the flatbread not only grain-free but also egg-free—a rare find in the Paleo world!
This Paleo Flatbread is more than just a bread substitute—it’s a meal prep staple that you’ll want to have on hand all the time. It stores well in the fridge or freezer, making it easy to prepare ahead of time. You can batch-cook several flatbreads and store them for later use, so they’re always ready whenever you need them.
They’re also incredibly portable, which makes them great for on-the-go lunches, picnics, or snacks. Just warm them up in a skillet or microwave, and they’ll be as good as fresh.
If you’re missing the comfort and versatility of bread while following a Paleo or grain-free lifestyle, this Paleo Flatbread will quickly become one of your go-to recipes. It’s easy to make, nutrient-dense, and incredibly flexible. Whether you’re making savory wraps, quick pizzas, or simple snacks, this flatbread can do it all.
And the best part? It’s completely free from grains, gluten, eggs, and dairy, meaning it fits into almost any diet. So next time you’re craving something bread-like but want to keep things healthy, whip up a batch of this Paleo Flatbread—your taste buds (and your gut) will thank you!
