GREEK YOGURT BROWNIES

Rich and fudgy brownies speckled with chocolate chips, walnuts and fat-free Greek yogurt instead of butter. They have all the decadence of their full-fat counterparts without the pudge.

Greek yogurt is a miracle worker making these dense and fudgy almost in the same way butter works. The yogurt gives them a slightly different texture that I like even more than the buttery version. The fudgy centers are smooth and creamy – almost silky – while still retaining the denseness I enjoy in a brownie. They have great chocolate flavor with a subtle tanginess from the yogurt.

I should tell you I’m a die-hard brownie fan. They’re my dessert of choice and they have to be fudgy. I won’t touch a cakey brownie with a ten-foot pole. So when I say I don’t see a reason to ever go back to butter-laden brownies because these were just as satisfying to my raging sweet tooth. . . that’s pretty serious stuff.

I’ll be reaching for the Greek yogurt every time I make brownies. From now until eternity.

No-pudge Greek yogurt brownies? I love you.

How can Greek yogurt be used to make brownies healthier?

Greek yogurt can be used as a healthier alternative to fats like oil or butter in brownie recipes. It not only reduces the overall fat content but also adds a source of protein. Additionally, Greek yogurt helps to keep brownies moist and dense. It’s a great way to make brownies a bit more nutritious without sacrificing texture or taste.
