Ingredients & Substitutions

• Greek yogurt – Use plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt for the best texture. You can substitute with regular yogurt or dairy-free alternatives like coconut yogurt.
• Almond milk – Any milk works, but almond milk keeps it low-carb. Feel free to use cow’s milk or coconut milk as substitutes.
• Egg – The egg helps bind the ingredients together. If you’re vegan, use a flax egg instead (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water).
• Almond flour – A low-carb option for flour. You can use oat flour for a higher-carb version or even coconut flour if preferred (use 1/4 cup coconut flour instead of almond flour).
• Unsweetened cocoa powder – This adds the rich chocolate flavor. Use another type of unsweetened cocoa or cacao powder if needed.
• Granulated sweetener – Erythritol, stevia, or monk fruit sweetener are great low-calorie options. You can swap with your preferred sweetener.
• Vanilla extract – This enhances the flavor. A teaspoon of almond extract can also be a good substitution.
• Baking powder – Helps the brownies rise slightly, making them fluffy.
• Salt – A pinch of salt helps bring out the flavors.
• Optional – Add ¼ cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Step-by-Step Guide: Bring Your Recipe to Life

1. Prep Your Baking Pan
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
   In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, almond milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
3. Combine the Dry Ingredients
   In another bowl, sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
4. Combine and Fold
   Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix! If you’d like, add in chocolate chips or nuts at this stage for an extra treat.
5. Bake
   Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. (A few moist crumbs are perfect for a fudgy brownie!)
6. Cool and Slice
   Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing into squares.

Pro Tips for Perfect Results

• Extra Fudgy? For an even richer texture, chill the brownies in the fridge for an hour after baking.
• Swaps and Add-ins: Try adding a few drops of peppermint extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a flavor twist.

Storage Tips: Keep Your Recipe Fresh for Longer

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. You can also freeze them for up to a month—just thaw before enjoying!
