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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: yogurt, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently using a spatula.

Step 6

Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

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).

Step 8

Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 9

Once cooled, cut into 12 equal pieces and serve. Enjoy your rich, fudgy yogurt brownies!
