Ingredients You’ll Need for Chewy No Sugar Greek Yogurt Brownies – moanaskitchen

  • 3/4 cup chocolate (melted and cooled to room temperature)
  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (I prefer FAGE Total 5% for a richer texture)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup flour (I always use King Arthur all-purpose flour)
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (sifted to remove lumps)
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional but recommended for extra richness)

How to Make Chewy No Sugar Greek Yogurt Brownies – moanaskitchen

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the melted chocolate and Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the vanilla extract and sugar to the chocolate mixture. Stir until well blended.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk until everything is combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  6. If you’re feeling indulgent, fold in the chocolate chips for that extra rich flavor.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter!).
  9. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before cutting them into squares. Enjoy the delicious aroma while you wait!

Fun Ways to Customize It

  • Nutty Delight: Fold in some chopped walnuts or pecans for added crunch and flavor.
  • Fruity Twist: Mix in some dried cherries or raspberries for a fresh and zesty bite.
  • Swirl it Up: Create a creamy marbled effect by swirling in some peanut butter or Nutella before baking.
  • Epic Toppings: Drizzle melted dark chocolate or a dusting of powdered sugar on top to make them extra special.

Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips

  • Make-Ahead Magic: These brownies can be made a day in advance. Just store them in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh.
  • Ingredient Swaps: If you’re out of Greek yogurt, you can use plain yogurt or a dairy-free alternative, like coconut yogurt.
  • Slicing Tricks: For clean cuts, use a warm knife and wipe it with a paper towel between slices.
  • Storage Suggestions: These brownies will keep well for up to a week. You can also freeze them for a future indulgence—just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap!
