Tips for how to make this healthy brownie brittle
- Whisk the egg whites and the sweetener in a separate bowl before adding to dry ingredients!
I know, I know. I hate to use an extra bowl but I've tried skipping this step and doesn't come out the same.
2. Grease a sheet pan and spread an even thin line of batter all around.
Don't worry about making a perfect rectangle, you can cut the edges later.
3. Check on the brittle after 15 minutes, just in case your over is too hot and since they are spread so thin.
4. Allow the brownies to cool before cutting in to them. They crisp a little after coming out of the oven.
