Deliciously rich and fudgy low calorie Greek yogurt brownies made with wholesome ingredients like cocoa powder, monk fruit sweetener, and Greek yogurt. These brownies offer a healthier twist without sacrificing flavor, perfect for a guilt-free dessert or snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup almond milk

Other

  • 90 g dark chocolate chips (approximately 1/2 cup)
  • Optional: additional chocolate chips for topping
  • Nonstick cooking spray for greasing the baking dish

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch glass baking dish with nonstick spray to prevent sticking and set aside.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, monk fruit sweetener, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the Greek yogurt and almond milk to the dry mixture. Stir gently just until everything is fully incorporated to avoid over mixing, which can make the brownies tough. The batter should be thick; if too thick, add a small splash more almond milk.
  4. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips. You can add a small amount of coconut oil if needed to help it melt smoothly. Pour the melted chocolate into the brownie batter and fold it in gently to combine.
  5. Bake: Transfer the batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Optionally, sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the dish before cutting into squares. Enjoy your healthier, low calorie Greek yogurt brownies!

Notes

  • Do not over mix the batter to keep the brownies tender and fudgy.
  • You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based or dairy milk.
  • Adding additional chocolate chips on top enhances the chocolate flavor and adds a nice texture contrast.
  • If you prefer a sweeter brownie, you can increase the monk fruit sweetener slightly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
