Use unsweetened apple sauce instead, pear baby food is also a good substitution.
HAPPY COOKING!
any other option to use in place of the yogurt? I am no vegan by any means, but i have lactose intolerance, I know there are some lactose free yogurt, but any other option?
I just baked these and the house smells great! Super easy to make too 🙂
I’m going to try these! They sound really good- although i’m a very picky brownie lover (i only like corner pieces and they have to be chewy but with a slightly overdone edge…yeah, i might be a little silly but that’s how i like mine! Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
I’m not going to lie, I was slightly skeptical when trying out this recipe. I made a batch of these brownies this morning and just had my first one; They are awesome! They are super moist and satisfied my chocolate craving.
Thanks!
Skinny brownies mean I can eat more than one right!? These look great!
