Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or full-fat)
- 0.25 cup Melted coconut oil (or unsalted butter)
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir together until evenly mixed.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: yogurt, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture of the brownies.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently using a spatula.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking).
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, cut into 12 equal pieces and serve. Enjoy your rich, fudgy yogurt brownies!
