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 Cocoa Powder (use unsweetened for best results)
- ⅓ cup Granular Sweetener (Erythritol; can be swapped 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
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 7×7 inch brownie pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, egg, cocoa powder, and erythritol. Stir gently until the batter is smooth and well blended. If desired, add coffee powder and salt to enhance flavor.
- Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly. Optionally, sprinkle chocolate chips on top for extra sweetness and texture.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 22 to 30 minutes. Check the brownies around the 25-minute mark by inserting a toothpick to ensure they are set but still moist.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely at room temperature in the pan before slicing. Cooling helps the brownies set properly and improves texture.
Notes
- Greek yogurt can be substituted with chilled firm soy or coconut yogurt for a dairy-free option.
- The egg is crucial for texture; it binds the ingredients and provides structure.
- Use unsweetened cocoa powder for the best rich chocolate flavor without added sugars.
- Sweetener can be adjusted based on preference; erythritol works well for low-carb baking.
- Adding coffee powder intensifies the chocolate flavor but is optional.
- Chocolate chips on top add extra sweetness and texture but can be omitted.
- Ensure brownies cool completely before slicing to avoid crumbling.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
