Easy Zero Sugar Greek Yogurt Brownies Recipe

Introduction

These easy zero sugar brownies are rich, fudgy, and made moist with Greek yogurt. Perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a chocolate treat without added sugar, they’re simple to prepare and taste indulgent.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chopped chocolate pieces
• 1 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup sweetener of choice (sugar-free, white or brown sugar)
• 3/4 cup regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup preferred milk (like unsweetened almond milk)
• 1 cup optional chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to overhang the edges for easy removal. Set the pan aside.
2. Step 2: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped chocolate in short bursts, stirring until smooth. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes. Add the non-dairy Greek yogurt and sweetener, then whisk until smooth and well combined. Transfer this mixture to a large mixing bowl.
3. Step 3: Add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda to the chocolate mixture. Stir gently until just combined to avoid overmixing. Pour in the milk and mix until the batter is smooth. Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
4. Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Step 5: Remove the brownies from the oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Use the parchment paper edges to lift them out onto a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Tips & Variations

• For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the brownies and allow them to set as they cool.
• Swap non-dairy Greek yogurt for regular Greek yogurt if preferred.
• Use your favorite sugar substitute to keep the brownies zero sugar and adjust sweetness to taste.
• Add nuts such as walnuts or pecans for a crunchy texture.

Storage

Store cooled brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week. Reheat gently in the microwave for a few seconds if desired, though they taste great cold as well.

FAQs

Can I use regular dairy yogurt instead of non-dairy Greek yogurt?

Yes, regular Greek yogurt works well and will keep the brownies moist, though the flavor may be slightly different.

Are these brownies truly sugar-free?

They have no added sugar if you choose a sugar-free sweetener. Using white or brown sugar will add sugar but can be substituted to keep them zero sugar.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Wet Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chopped chocolate pieces
• 1 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup sweetener of choice (sugar-free, white or brown sugar)
• 1/2 cup preferred milk (like unsweetened almond milk)

Dry Ingredients

• 3/4 cup regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Optional

• 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Prepare the Baking Pan and Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to overhang the edges for easy removal of the brownies later. Set aside the prepared pan.
2. Melt Chocolate and Combine Wet Ingredients: Place the chopped chocolate pieces in a microwave-safe bowl and melt them in short bursts, stirring frequently until smooth. Let the melted chocolate cool for 1-2 minutes. Then add the non-dairy Greek yogurt and sweetener to the melted chocolate. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Transfer this mixture to a large mixing bowl.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients and Combine with Wet Ingredients: Add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda to the chocolate mixture. Stir gently until just combined, avoiding overmixing to preserve a tender texture. Pour in the preferred milk and stir well until the batter is fully incorporated. If desired, fold in the optional chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
4. Bake the Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top evenly with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, indicating the brownies are baked but remain fudgy.
5. Cool the Brownies: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then carefully lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into squares. Serve and enjoy your healthy, zero sugar brownies!

Notes

• Use non-dairy Greek yogurt to keep the brownies vegan and dairy-free.
• Choose your preferred sweetener based on dietary needs: sugar-free options for keto or diabetic-friendly baking, or regular sugar for more traditional flavor.
• Gluten-free all-purpose flour can be substituted to make the recipe gluten-free.
• Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense brownies; stir until just combined.
• Check doneness with a toothpick; the brownies should be fudgy and moist, not dry.
• Allow cooling completely for cleaner cuts and better texture.
