Ingredients

3 tbsp. (42g) miniature chocolate chips, divided
2 tbsp. (30mL) nonfat milk
3/4 tsp. vanilla crème stevia
1/2 cup (120g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 cup (195g) mashed banana (about 2 large)
1 1/2 tbsp. (21g) coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 cups (150g) white whole wheat flour or gluten-free* flour

Method

01

Preheat the oven to 300°F, and lightly coat a 9”-square pan with nonstick cooking spray.
02

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, stir together the coconut oil, mashed banana, and vanilla. Mix in the Greek yogurt, stirring until no large lumps remain.* Mix in the stevia and milk. Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Fold in 2 ½ tablespoons of chocolate chips.
03

Spread the batter into the prepared pan, and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top. Bake at 300°F for 17-20 minutes. Cool completely to room temperature in the pan, and let the brownies rest for an additional 3 hours before slicing for the fudgiest texture.
04

For the gluten-free flour, use as follows: ¾ cup (90g) millet flour, ¼ cup (30g) tapioca flour, ¼ cup (30g) brown rice flour, and ¾ teaspoon xanthan gum. Most store-bought gluten-free flour blends should work as well if measured like this.
