Wet 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)
- 1/2 cup preferred milk (like unsweetened almond milk)
Dry Ingredients
- 3/4 cup regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Optional
- Prepare the Baking Pan and Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing paper to extend over edges for easy removal, then set aside.
- Melt Chocolate and Combine Wet Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup chopped chocolate in short bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool for 1-2 minutes, then whisk in 1 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt and 1/2 cup sweetener until smooth. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Mix Dry Ingredients and Combine with Wet Ingredients: Add 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to the chocolate mixture and stir gently until just combined. Pour in 1/2 cup milk and mix until fully incorporated. Fold in optional 1 cup chocolate chips evenly.
- Bake the Brownies: Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool the Brownies: Remove pan from oven, cool in pan for 10 minutes, then lift brownies out with parchment overhang and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting.
Notes
- You can use any non-dairy Greek yogurt or regular Greek yogurt if not dairy-free.
- Sweetener choice can be tailored to dietary needs: erythritol, stevia blends, or regular sugar if preferred.
- Gluten-free flour can be substituted to make this recipe gluten-free.
- Optional chocolate chips add extra texture and chocolate richness.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep brownies tender.
- Brownies are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
