Description
Enjoy rich, fudgy brownies without any added sugar! These brownies use Greek yogurt for moisture and protein, making them a healthier treat that’s still deeply chocolatey and satisfying. Perfect for guilt-free dessert or snacks.
Ingredients
-
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (preferably non-fat or low-fat)
-
2 large eggs
-
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-
1/4 cup almond flour (or whole wheat flour)
-
1/2 tsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp salt
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1/3 cup sugar substitute (like erythritol, monk fruit sweetener, or stevia blend)
-
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and sugar substitute until smooth.
3️⃣ Add dry ingredients: Sift in cocoa powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold until fully combined, being careful not to overmix.
4️⃣ Add chocolate chips (optional): Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips for extra fudginess.
5️⃣ Bake: Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
6️⃣ Cool: Let brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing.
Notes
-
Almond flour keeps these brownies moist and gluten-free; you can substitute with whole wheat flour if preferred.
-
Adjust sweetness based on your sugar substitute’s potency.
-
For a dairy-free version, try using a plant-based yogurt, though texture may vary.
-
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
