High-Protein Low-Carb Brownies image

These are fudgy, if unusual brownies. Not super sweet, but sweet enough. Feel free to substitute any kind of nuts for the almonds -- the original recipe called for walnuts. Loosely based on a recipe from "What Every Pregnant Woman Should Know" by Gail Sforza Brewer, modified for a somewhat diabetic diet.

I'm not a big fan of protein powder, but I couldn't taste it at all in these brownies. They just tasted like delicious chocolate brownies.

I love that these brownies are made with almond flour. It gives them a nice nutty flavor and makes them extra moist.

I was so excited to try these brownies, but I was disappointed. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't taste very good. I wouldn't recommend them.
