Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the brownies after baking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. This creates the moist base of the brownie batter.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into the wet mixture. Stir thoroughly until the batter is evenly combined and free of lumps.
- Transfer Batter to Pan: Pour the prepared batter into the lined baking pan, spreading it out evenly and smoothing the top with a spatula for uniform baking.
- Bake the Brownies: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, cut into nine equal squares and enjoy.
Notes
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a different sweetness profile.
- Be careful not to overbake; the brownies should remain fudgy inside.
- Using full-fat Greek yogurt will yield richer brownies, but low-fat versions can also be used.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
