Preparation of fit brownies
To prepare the fit brownies, start by melting the dark chocolate in a double boiler.
In a bowl, combine the oat flour, baking powder, and cocoa. Add the yogurt and mix with a hand whisk. Incorporate the egg and then the milk, mixing well. Finally, add the melted chocolate and mix until you get a smooth batter.
Line a rectangular baking pan of about 8×10 inches with parchment paper and pour in the batter, leveling it with a spatula.
Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F for about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before cutting the brownies into squares of the desired size and serving.
Unlike the classic ones, these fit treats have a moister consistency.
Tips and Storage
For a more indulgent yet still light version, before baking, you can add a few drops or shavings of dark chocolate on top of the batter.
Chopped nuts, almonds, or hazelnuts added to the batter or on top will provide extra crunch and flavor.
To make a protein version, you can replace half of the oat flour with cocoa-flavored protein powder for an extra protein boost.
