Ingredients
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 large egg
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup protein powder (chocolate, vanilla, or unflavored)
1/3 cup coconut sugar or granulated sweetener of choice
Optional: chocolate chips for topping
Optional: flaky sea salt for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Add chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the brownies are set and slightly risen.
- Allow to cool completely before slicing.
- Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve.
Notes
- Do not overbake; brownies continue setting while cooling.
- Use thick Greek yogurt for best texture.
- If batter seems too thick, add 1–2 teaspoons milk or water.
- For cleaner slices, chill brownies for 30 minutes before cutting.
- Flavor improves after resting overnight in the refrigerator.
