Instructions

Preheat the oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
Mix the wet ingredients: Add Greek yogurt, eggs, maple syrup, peanut butter, and vanilla to a bowl. Whisk until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients: Stir in the oat flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Adjust the batter: Add milk a little at a time if the batter feels too thick. It should be thick but easy to spread.
Add chocolate chips: Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
Fill the pan: Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
Bake: Bake for 20–25 minutes. The center should look set but still slightly soft.
Cool: Let the brownies cool completely before slicing. This helps them become more fudgy.
Slice and serve: Cut into 12 squares and enjoy.

Notes

Storage

Store the brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. Wrap individual brownies before freezing so they are easy to grab later.

Recipe Tips

Don’t overbake the brownies if you want a fudgy center.
Let them cool completely before cutting for cleaner slices.
Use chocolate protein powder for a richer chocolate flavor.
Add walnuts or chopped almonds for some crunch.
For extra chocolate flavor, add a few more chocolate chips on top before baking.
Serve with Greek yogurt, berries, or a little peanut butter for an easy dessert.
