Ingredients
Chocolate Mixture
- 2/3 cup Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips (divided)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1 large Egg
- 1/4 cup Almond Milk (or soy milk, or any milk of choice)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla paste
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sweetener (sugar-free brown erythritol, coconut sugar, or brown sugar)
- 1/2 cup Oat Flour (or all-purpose flour, lightly packed, swept)
- 1/2 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) to ensure it’s ready when the batter is prepared.
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8-inch by 8-inch brownie pan with parchment paper and lightly oil it to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Melt Chocolate Mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/3 cup of the sugar-free chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Microwave until melted and smooth. Allow it to cool at room temperature for a few minutes.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the oat flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, egg, vanilla paste, almond milk, and the cooled melted chocolate mixture until smooth.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Gently stir with a silicone spatula just until combined to avoid overmixing and to keep the brownies tender.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the remaining 1/3 cup of sugar-free chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter for bursts of chocolaty goodness.
- Pour Batter: Pour the prepared batter into the lined brownie pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-23 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, signaling the brownies are done.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and cool immediately on a cooling rack for about one hour before cutting into 16 servings. This cooling time ensures the brownies set perfectly.
Notes
- You can substitute oat flour with all-purpose flour if preferred.
- Use any milk of choice such as soy, cow, or almond milk based on dietary preferences.
- Ensure the chocolate chips and sweetener are sugar-free or low in sugar to maintain the health benefits.
- Allowing the brownies to cool completely helps achieve the right texture and easier slicing.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate to extend freshness.
