These no-bake keto brownie bites are not only super fast and easy, but they are perfect for snacks, desserts, lunchboxes, or anytime really!
No-Bake Keto Brownie Bites
I’ve decided that no-bake desserts – such as these no-bake keto brownie bites and my peanut butter bites – are going to be my new jam. They are A-Mazing!
While I love my baked treats as much as the next girl, when you’re a busy mom no-bake treats are a lifesaver. And I have tons of ideas for different energy bite flavors so just get ready!
Not only are these brownie bites super fast and easy, but they will satisfy the fiercest of chocolate cravings and are perfect for snacks, desserts, lunchboxes, or anytime your kids say they’re hungry. Even if they just had a snack and dinner is almost ready.
Kids – at least mine anyways – are ALWAYS hungry and these are perfect to keep around the house for them (and mom!) to munch on.
Plus, they are full of fat and protein and low in sugar so they will keep your kiddos full for longer, hopefully until dinner 🙂
can these no-bake keto brownie bites be made paleo?
can these no-bake keto brownie bites be made paleo?Yes! The only ingredient that’s not Paleo compliant is the erythritol. So to make these grain-free and Paleo simply replace the erythritol with Coconut Palm Sugar – however then they will not be Keto.
How many carbs do they have?
As written, these have about 4.6 carbs per ball. However, a reader kindly pointed out that if you exchange the walnuts for pecans the carb count is only 1.68 per ball – YAY! I’ve included the complete nutritional information for both versions below 🙂

Keto No-Bake Brownie Bites
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Whole Walnuts
- 1/8 tsp. Sea Salt
- 1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
- 1/2 Cup Almond or Peanut Butter
- 1/4 C Erythritol or Swerve or granulated sweetener of choice
- 2 Tbsp. Coconut Flour or as needed
- 1/4 Cup Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Chips or chocolate chips of choice
- 1/2 tsp. Pure Vanilla
Instructions
- In the bowl of a food processor add the walnuts and sea salt. Process on high for 5 to 10 seconds, or until the nuts are broken up into small pieces.
- Add the cocoa powder, nut butter, vanilla, and Swerve (or sweetener of choice) and process until well combined and batter starts coming together.
- Depending on the thickness of your nut butter you may need to add coconut flour to help bind everything together. If so, add the coconut flour 1 Tbsp. at a time, and process until well combined until you achieve the right consistency. (if you add too much flour, just add in a splash of non-dairy milk). You can also add a bit more nut butter to help bind everything together if needed.
- Pulse in the chocolate chips.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough between the palms of your hand to form small balls and place them on the parchment paper.
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10-20 minutes or until firm.
- Store in a sealed baggie or container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- A reader commented that to make these lower carb you can sub the walnuts for pecans and the nutritional info will be as follows: kcal: 98.3 net carbs: 1.68 ( 7.65g carbs – 2.29g fiber – 3.68 sugar alcohols = 1.68 net carbs each) fat: 9.14g.
- Do you prefer Paleo, date sweetened desserts? If so, you can replace the nut butter, coconut flour, and powdered erythritol with 1 1/2 Cups (around 15) medjool dates. This makes a perfect date-sweetened paleo brownie bite!
Nutritional information is approximate and may vary.
I followed the recipe exactly, but there was no way I could form this into balls. Way too moist. The recipe said 2 T coconut flour, or as needed. I added about 8 T flour and it will still very wet. Finally put them in small ramekins and froze them. What did I do wrong to not be able to form balls? It was thin and moist, more like a pudding
HI New Baker! I made these again tonight and I think I figured it out! When I process the nuts I only process them for about 5 to 10 seconds, or until they are broken up into small pieces. If you ground them into more of a flour, it would definitely cause them to be too wet! I can see how you could easily do that when making the recipe so I clarified the instructions on the recipe card. I hope this helps!!!

Made the no-bake brownies for a party. They were a hit even for those who are not following a keto diet. Thanks so much for this delicious treat recipe!
Thanks Karen! These brownie bites are one of my go-recipes for parties too – no one notices they’re gluten-free and keto 🙂
