How to Make Our High-Protein Keto Greek Yogurt Brownies
1. Prepare the Oven

5. Bake
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.

Tips & FAQs
Can I make these brownies dairy-free?
Yes. Replace the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free Greek-style yogurt and use coconut oil or vegan butter instead of regular butter.
Can I substitute almond flour?
Yes. Sunflower seed flour works as a 1:1 substitute. Coconut flour can also be used, but reduce the amount to about ¼ cup, as it absorbs much more moisture.
Why are my brownies too soft?
They may be slightly underbaked or still warm. Let them cool completely before slicing for the best texture.
Can I add nuts?
Absolutely. Chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds add a delicious crunch.
Are these brownies freezer-friendly?
Yes. Wrap each brownie individually and freeze for up to 2 months.
Can I use raw cacao powder?
Yes. Raw cacao powder works well and gives an even deeper chocolate flavor.
How do I keep them extra fudgy?
Avoid overbaking. Remove the brownies from the oven when the center is just set, as they’ll continue to firm up while cooling.
