Blueberries in brownies? Yes, yes, yes! Adding blueberries to your brownies makes moist, decadent, super delicious brownies. Blueberries and dark chocolate hold powerful properties, as they are both antioxidants, and the strength in these two foods together is nothing but impressive.
These brownies are studded with fresh blueberries and then topped with more fresh blueberries, which is where you will get the most blueberry taste. The chocolate is the dominant flavor here and when you get a bite with a blueberry it is heavenly.
The best part - these are gluten-free, nut-free (no almond flour), lowcarb, keto and diabetic friendly. Made with SunFlour (sunflower seed flour), dark cocoa, blueberries, and a combination of sweeteners (monkfruit and allulose). The allulose sweetener plays important part here for the chewy texture.
