I wanted these lamington sugar free brownies to be easy and delicious. Well, I think I delivered, and hope you think the same.
How gorgeous do they look? Honestly, this recipe is pretty quick to whip up and tastes amazing too!
The ingredients
All the ingredients for our lamington brownie recipe are easy to source. Grab all of them at your local Woolworths or favourite online keto store. Sometimes I find it better to bump up my orders online with everyday products I use as well so I get free shipping.
Anyway here is what you will need, plus some possible substitutes.
- 100 g dark chocolate, I use Well Naturally. There are a few different brands of sugar free chocolate now available but this is still my favourite one.
- 1 teaspoon salt flakes
- 200 g butter, I use salted butter
- 100 g sweetener I use Natvia. When using any sweetener I like to start off low with my measures and add more if needed.
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder I love Bob’s Red Mill Double Acting Baking Powder
- 30 g coconut flour or 70g almond meal
- 40 g unsweetened cacao, always check the nutritional and look for unsweetened cacao or cocoa. Trust me some are very high in carbs.
- 1 tablespoon collagen This can be omitted but I like to add collagen to add a bit of extra “chew” to my brownies.
CHEESECAKE LAYER
- 250 g cream cheese, softened
- 70 g thickened cream
- 1 egg
- 30 g sweetener, I use Natvia or Sukrin Melis
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
JAM LAYER
- 240 g Sugar Free Raspberry Jam I use Natvia (this jam is sooooo good!)
- 1 teaspoon red food colouring, this is optional I use it purely for aesthetics. I use Queen Fine Foods Red Food Colouring.
How To Make Them
Trust me these sugar-free brownies are easier and less fiddly to make than the original. I just mix each layers’ ingredients and pour one on top of the other. Yes, you do have to be a little gentle when spreading the mixture but honestly, it is a quick and painless recipe.

- Whisk or mix cheesecake layer ingredients until smooth and lump free. Pour over the top of brownie batter. Spread gently to layer.
- Combine jam and food colouring (if using). Gently pour and spread over the the cheesecake layer. Top with reserved brownie batter.
- Smooth over top of brownie and bake 25-30 minutes. Brownie should still be soft and fudgy when cooked.
- Serve with double cream, coconut flakes and freeze-dried or fresh raspberries.

Kill me now! This is a truly amazing dessert. Try it and you will be ready to die too, its devine.The tip for cooling each layer in the freezer between them was spot on and made my finished product look like something special. My second fav dessert (first is the easy keto custard tart). Thanks Megan this is the bomb!
