Low carb Christmas tree brownies! They are YUMBALLS.

christmas-tree-brownies-feature

So we made low carb Christmas tree brownies and they are everything. You NEED to make these for Christmas day, whack them on your dessert table and YAY everyone will seriously love you (they already do, but they will love you more because brownies win).

This amazing recipe is brought to you by Supabarn. They have everything you need to stock up your healthy kitchen! You will definitely enjoy getting lost in their health food section (they have EVERYTHING!). We love going back to Canberra to visit, stocking up on all our pantry supplies and filling a suitcase to bring back up to the Gold Coast (seriously… we do this!).

We LOVE that these brownies are low carb as well as gluten free, dairy free and grain free. Yeah, we know, how good is that? It’s like you could ACTUALLY eat these for breakfast and that would be totally ok.

But the best place for these brownies is smack, bang in the middle of your dessert table, along with a guilt-free gingerbread house

Perfect combo if you ask us!

We do admit, the icing is next level goodness because we used Xylitol Icing Sugar from our faves Naturally Sweet (if you can’t find this you could make our other cupcake icing).

AND it’s green, so it actually looks like Christmas trees! You really could make any cake or slice into Christmas trees just cut them into triangles! Simple really!

Ok let’s get onto the recipe because that’s really why you’re here! We’ve also popped this baby on the Get Merry app (where all of our other recipes live at the touch of a button plus we add app only exclusive recipes every darn week… it’s currently #5 in the app store in food and drink! YAY! Celebrate!). 

If you do make these cute low carb Christmas tree brownies, take a photo and share it on social media, use #GetMerry so we don’t miss out on seeing it!

Always merrymaking,

Emma + Carla
