Introduction

These indulgent flourless Greek yogurt brownies are rich, moist, and satisfyingly chocolatey without any flour. They’re a perfect treat for anyone looking for a gluten-free, lower-carb dessert that doesn’t sacrifice on flavor.

The image shows a close-up of a thick, square chocolate brownie placed on a white plate with a smooth surface. The brownie has two distinct layers: the bottom layer is dense and dark brown, almost black, with a fudgy texture, while the top layer is slightly lighter brown and has a soft and crumbly texture. The top surface is decorated with thin, wavy lines of glossy dark chocolate running across in parallel. In the background, blurred pieces of the same brownies are visible on the white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

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 (like erythritol; can swap with stevia or monk fruit for lower-carb)
1 teaspoon coffee powder (optional, enhances chocolate flavor)
1 pinch salt (optional, balances sweetness)
½ cup chocolate chips (optional topping for extra sweetness)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 7×7 inch brownie pan with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, egg, cocoa powder, and granular sweetener. Stir gently until you have a smooth, well-mixed batter.
Step 3: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips on top for extra sweetness.
Step 4: Bake for 22 to 30 minutes, checking for doneness around 25 minutes. The brownies should be set but moist in the center.
Step 5: Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely at room temperature before slicing to ensure clean cuts.

Tips & Variations

Adding a teaspoon of coffee powder enhances the depth of the chocolate flavor without tasting like coffee.
For a dairy-free version, use firm soy or coconut yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
If you prefer sweeter brownies, adjust the sweetener or sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top before baking.

Storage

Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. To reheat, warm gently in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or enjoy them chilled for a fudgier texture.

How to Serve

The image shows a close-up of several thick chocolate brownies placed on a white plate with a white marbled background. Each brownie features two main layers: a dense, moist, and dark chocolate base that looks rich and fudgy, and a thinner top layer that is slightly lighter brown and more cake-like, with glossy, dark chocolate drizzle lines running horizontally across the top. The edges of the brownies are crumbly, adding texture contrast. The focus is on one brownie in the front, highlighting its smooth top and textured sides, with other brownies slightly blurred in the background. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Greek yogurt is thicker and provides structure, so regular yogurt may make the batter too runny and affect the texture. If you only have regular yogurt, consider draining it first to remove excess liquid.

Are these brownies gluten-free?

Yes, these brownies are naturally gluten-free since they contain no flour. Just ensure your cocoa powder and other ingredients are certified gluten-free if you have strict dietary requirements.
