Brownies are a universal favorite, and today there are countless variations, each more delicious than the last. We are excited to share our yogurt brownie recipe with you—bake it, taste it, and be amazed. Let’s get to the recipe!
Ingredients for your yogurt brownies:
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder;
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar;
- 1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt;
- 1 cup all-purpose flour;
- 1 large egg;
- 1 pinch of salt.
How to make yogurt brownies:
- In a blender, combine the egg, yogurt, flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt;
- Blend all the ingredients until you reach a smooth and homogeneous batter;
- Pour the batter into a greased baking pan (use coconut oil and dust with a little cocoa powder);
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20 minutes. It is important that it forms a delicate crust on the outside while staying moist and soft on the inside;
- Let it cool slightly before slicing into even squares;
- Enjoy!
Kitchen Tip:
The yogurt helps keep the brownie incredibly moist and soft, while adding a subtle tanginess that pairs perfectly with the chocolate. For an even richer, fudgier texture, try using Greek yogurt—its thicker consistency adds even more moisture.
Did you know?
The brownie was created in the United States in the late 19th century. However, the yogurt version is a modern, lesser-known twist. Adding yogurt makes the brownie a healthier option as it reduces saturated fat, increases protein content, and provides beneficial probiotics. Additionally, yogurt can help lower the glycemic index of the recipe, making it a better choice for those managing blood sugar levels.
