Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup almond flour
- ¼ cup sugar-free sweetener (such as erythritol or monk fruit)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, applesauce, vanilla extract, and sugar-free sweetener until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, almond flour, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Incorporate Chocolate Chips: If using, fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter for added texture and chocolate bursts.
- Bake the Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 9 squares to ensure clean cuts and optimal texture.
Notes
- For extra fudgy brownies, slightly underbake them and chill in the fridge before serving.
- You can substitute coconut flour, but reduce the amount to 3 tablespoons and add an extra egg to maintain texture.
- Store brownies in the refrigerator for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
