These Flourless Greek Yogurt Brownies are a rich, fudgy, and healthier alternative to traditional brownies. Made without flour, they rely on Greek yogurt and cocoa powder for a dense, moist texture and a deep chocolate flavor. Sweetened with honey and enhanced with vanilla, these brownies are easy to prepare, naturally gluten-free, and perfect for a guilt-free dessert or snack.

Ingredients

Brownie Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring an even texture.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Sift in the cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into the wet mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are fully incorporated, creating a consistent batter.
  4. Prepare for baking: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth the top evenly so the brownies bake uniformly.
  5. Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares. Cooling fully helps them set and enhances their fudgy texture.

Notes

  • Ensure the Greek yogurt is plain and unsweetened for the best flavor balance.
  • Do not overbake to keep the brownies moist and fudgy; check around 20 minutes.
  • These brownies are naturally gluten-free, but always check your cocoa powder and other ingredients for gluten-free certification if needed.
  • Honey adds natural sweetness and moisture; you can substitute with maple syrup if preferred.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
