In reply to George. I anticipated it would be too much for me too, so I put just over one TBSP instead. Perfect! Had to make a second for 2 of my kids to share.

My husband asked for this mug cake for a treat. He really enjoyed it. My daughter liked it a lot too. Topped with keto whipped cream. It’s a keeper recipe. Thank you for sharing this.

In reply to LesleySA. I actually did this by mistake (I used two tablespoons, instead of teaspoon), but to fix it I had to double the egg, the baking soda, the sugar and the time... as the author said you don't need much coconut flour. It turned out quite well after the adjustment :)

Too much chocolate for me.

In reply to LesleySA. I have made it the way it's listed for years without an issue. A serving of cocoa powder is 1 tablespoon so 2 teaspoons might not be enough. Some cocoa powder is more bitter than others.

Fair enough, I understand that coconut flour is super absorbent and that it is your recipe but, I still think the proportion of BP to flour incorrect.
I made this today with the changes (I mentioned) in flour to BP.
The results were impressive but, sadly I didn't pick up on the 2 TABLESPOONS of cocoa powder which made the brownie very bitter and inedible.
"2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons coconut flour
½ teaspoon baking powder"

I think the Gremlins took over and it should read
2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 Tablespoons coconut flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
I intend making these again (correcting ingredient amounts I mentioned) as the recipe has potential for being absolutely divine.
All the best.

In reply to LesleySA. You actually need only about a fourth to a third of coconut flour compared to all-purpose flour and almond flour. It soaks up the liquid and egg to expand so you don't need as much of it.

Hi Lisa
"2 teaspoons coconut flour"
"½ teaspoon baking powder"
I think this is a typo?
Should the recipe not be 2 TABLESPOONS coconut flour?
(BP ratio to flour is totally disproportionate as it stands)
I am about to make this with the adjustment suggested but, cannot rate until then. Looking forward to your response 🙂

In reply to Marie. I haven't tried it with this recipe, but it should work.

If I "undercooked" this brownie, would I have a "molton" brownie?
