Low Calorie Greek Yogurt Brownies
These Protein-Packed Greek Yogurt Brownies are a healthier twist on classic brownies, offering a rich, chocolatey flavor with a boost of protein. Made with oat and almond flours, Greek yogurt, and dark chocolate chips, they’re low in calories and high in nutrients, making them the perfect guilt-free treat for satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
- Flour: 1/2 cup oat flour (for a gluten-free option) + 1/4 cup almond flour (adds more moisture and flavor)
- Baking Powder: 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt: 1/4 teaspoon
- Cocoa Powder: 1/4 cup organic unsweetened cacao powder
- Protein Powder: 1/4 cup chocolate or vanilla protein powder (optional, for extra protein)
- Sweetener: 1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener (or sweetener of choice)
- Greek Yogurt: 3/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
- Almond Milk: 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk alternative)
- Eggs: 2 large eggs (for structure and richness)
- Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon
- Chocolate Chips: 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (choose a high-quality, sugar-free variety if possible)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with non-stick spray.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder, and protein powder (if using).
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, almond milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and sweetener until smooth.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. The batter should be thick, but if it’s too thick, add a tiny splash of almond milk to loosen it up.
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/3 cup of chocolate chips, adding a small bit of coconut oil if needed for smoothness.
- Fold in melted chocolate: Gently fold the melted chocolate into the batter. Be careful not to overmix.
- Bake: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Top with remaining chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with just a few moist crumbs (not wet). Let the brownies cool for about 10 minutes before cutting.
- Serve and enjoy! You’ll get a rich, chocolatey treat with added protein and a slight boost of healthy fats from the almond flour.
