Instructions

Oven 175°C / 350°F · 8x8 inch (20cm) square pan, parchment lined

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 175°C / 350°F and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment, leaving an overhang.

  2. 2

    Melt half the dark chocolate with the butter, then whisk in the cocoa powder until glossy.

  3. 3

    Whisk the eggs, allulose and vanilla for 2 minutes until pale and slightly thickened — this builds the crackly top.

  4. 4

    Fold in the chocolate mixture, then the Greek yogurt.

  5. 5

    Add the almond flour, baking powder and salt and fold just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in the remaining chopped chocolate.

  6. 6

    Spread into the pan and bake 20-24 minutes.

  7. 7

    Cool completely in the pan before slicing — allulose batters set as they cool.

Doneness test

Edges look set and a skewer 2cm from the centre comes out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.

Cooling

Chill for 30 minutes after cooling for clean, bakery-sharp slices.

Smart substitutions

  • Almond flour instead of white flour

    Adds protein and fat while cutting net carbs.

    Texture: Softer, more fudgy crumb — brownies need a full cool to firm up.

  • Allulose instead of sugar

    Nearly zero calories and no blood-sugar spike, but it still caramelises.

    Texture: Bakes moister and browns faster, so watch the last 5 minutes.

  • Greek yogurt for half the butter

    Cuts fat and adds protein.

    Texture: Keeps the centre dense without greasiness.

Pro baking tips

  • Underbake slightly; the residual heat finishes the centre.
  • A pinch of espresso powder deepens the chocolate without adding sweetness.

Make it even lighter

Swap an ingredient for a lower-calorie one, use less of it, or skip it altogether — with an honest note on what it does to the taste.
