Ingredients
Scale
For the Brownies
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt (Can substitute with firm soy or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
- 1 Egg (Essential for maintaining brownie texture)
- ½ cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- ⅓ cup Granular Sweetener (Erythritol; can be swapped with stevia or monk fruit for lower-carb)
Optional Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Coffee Powder (Enhances chocolate flavor)
- 1 pinch Salt (Balances sweetness)
- ½ cup Chocolate Chips (Optional topping for extra sweetness)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 7×7 inch brownie pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy removal.
- Make the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, egg, unsweetened cocoa powder, and granular sweetener (erythritol). Stir gently but thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well blended. If using, add coffee powder and a pinch of salt to enhance flavor.
- Pour and Add Toppings: Pour the prepared brownie batter into your lined pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Optionally, sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top for an extra chocolatey touch.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 22 to 30 minutes. Check for doneness around 25 minutes by inserting a toothpick in the center—it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely at room temperature in the pan before slicing into 9 squares. This cooling step helps the brownies set properly for easier cutting and better texture.
Notes
- Serve warm or at room temperature; they can also be enjoyed chilled for a denser texture.
- Experiment with additional toppings such as nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt to suit your taste.
- You can substitute the Greek yogurt with firm soy or coconut-based yogurt for a dairy-free version.
- Adjust the sweetener according to your preference, using stevia or monk fruit for a lower-carb option.
