# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides. This preparation ensures your Low Calorie Greek Yogurt Brownies won't stick and are easy to remove.
02 -
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa powder, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp instant espresso powder. Set aside this fudgy foundation.
03 -
In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup granulated erythritol blend, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 large egg, 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, and 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
04 -
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips. This forms the delicious batter for your Low Calorie Greek Yogurt Brownies.
05 -
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared 8x8 inch pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 22-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs, not wet batter. For the best Low Calorie Greek Yogurt Brownies, avoid overbaking.
06 -
Let the Low Calorie Greek Yogurt Brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing. This allows them to set properly. Optionally, sprinkle with a pinch of flaky sea salt before serving for an enhanced flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
Storage Tip: Store these brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week for extended freshness.
02 -
Sweetener Swap: Feel free to adjust the amount of erythritol blend to your preferred sweetness level, or substitute with another low-calorie granulated sweetener like monk fruit blend.
03 -
Flavor Boost: The instant espresso powder is crucial for deepening the chocolate flavor without adding a coffee taste. Don't skip it for truly rich brownies!
04 -
Serving Suggestion: For an extra treat, serve these brownies slightly warm with a dollop of extra non-fat Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of additional sugar-free chocolate chips.
