Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large egg whites
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, pure vanilla extract, and egg whites. Whisk until smooth and well integrated.
In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Make sure there are no clumps remaining for an even texture.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, which can result in denser brownie bites.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Evenly spoon the brownie batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a brownie bite comes out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs attached.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these delicious, low-fat brownie bites, perfect for a guilt-free treat!
