Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt plain, full-fat preferred
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour or whole wheat
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks optional but recommended
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and both sugars until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and Greek yoghurt. Whisk until fully combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and flour. Gently fold everything together with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Optional Add-Ins: Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips or chunks, or other preferred mix-ins like nuts or berries.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes before cutting into 12 squares. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
