- 1/2 cup creamy almond butter
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup oat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons mini semisweet chocolate chips, for topping
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond butter, applesauce, Greek yogurt, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add the cocoa powder, oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until fully combined and no dry streaks remain.
- Fold in the 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips.
- Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips over the top.
- Bake for 20 to 24 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center still looks slightly soft for a fudgy texture.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing. For extra fudgy brownies, chill them for 30 minutes before cutting.
- Slice into 16 squares and serve.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- For a nut-free version, replace almond butter with sunflower seed butter.
