Easy Zero Sugar Greek Yogurt Brownies Recipe

Introduction

These easy zero sugar brownies use Greek yogurt for a moist, fudgy texture without the extra sweetness. Perfect for those watching their sugar intake, they still deliver rich chocolate flavor with optional chocolate chips for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chopped chocolate pieces
• 1 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup sweetener of choice (sugar-free, white or brown sugar)
• 3/4 cup regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup preferred milk (like unsweetened almond milk)
• 1 cup optional chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal. Set the pan aside.
2. Step 2: Place chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in short bursts, stirring until smooth. Let it cool slightly, then whisk in the yogurt and sweetener until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
3. Step 3: Add flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda to the chocolate mixture and stir until just combined. Pour in the milk and mix until fully incorporated. If using, fold in the chocolate chips gently.
4. Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.
5. Step 5: Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Using the parchment overhang, lift them out and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

FAQs

Can I use regular yogurt instead of non-dairy Greek yogurt?

Yes, regular Greek yogurt works well and will give the brownies a similar texture, just with dairy.

How do I know when the brownies are done?

Insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter, the brownies are perfectly baked.
