Low-calorie chocolate brownies

If you're looking for a guilt-free chocolate treat, these low-calorie chocolate brownies are perfect for you! Made with wholesome ingredients like Greek yogurt, oats, and cocoa powder, they offer a rich, indulgent taste without the excess calories. Plus, they're sweetened with stevia to keep your sugar intake in check. Let's get started on creating these delicious, healthier brownies.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
2. Prepare Baking Pan: Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of brownies.
3. Blend Oats: If your oats are whole, place them in a blender or food processor and blend until they reach a fine flour-like consistency. If your oats are already ground, you can skip this step.
4. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, milk, and the egg. Whisk together until fully blended.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa powder, ground oats, stevia, baking powder, and a dash of salt. Stir until well combined.
6. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring continuously until you have a smooth, thick batter.
7. Pour Batter into Pan: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
8. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for around 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Oven times may vary, so keep an eye on your brownies.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve: Once cooled, cut into squares and enjoy your delicious, low-calorie chocolate brownies!
