The Guilt-Free Chocolate Brownies

Ingredients
½ cup Greek yogurt
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
½ cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup cocoa powder
½ cup oat flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Add the dry ingredients: Stir in the cocoa powder, oat flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until everything is just combined—don’t overmix.

Fold in the chocolate chips: Save a few for topping if you like.

Bake it up: Pour the batter into your prepared dish and smooth out the top. Sprinkle any reserved chocolate chips over the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are perfect).

Cool and slice: Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before cutting into squares.
