Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar substitute (baking-approved, e.g., erythritol or stevia blend)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt (plain)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Low-calorie almond milk or skim milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar substitute, unsweetened applesauce, non-fat Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing as this can result in dense cupcakes.

Step 5

Gradually stir in the almond milk, incorporating it into the batter until smooth and pourable.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once cooled, enjoy your 'Oh My Goodness Yummy Very Low Cal Chocolate Cupcakes' as-is or garnish with a light dusting of cocoa powder or a dollop of low-fat whipped topping.
