  • ⅓ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons melted chocolate

Tools You’ll Need:

Substitutions & Additions:

How to Make Healthy Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Cinnamon Roll Brownie Squares with Fudge Drizzle

  1. Preheat & Prep – Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 pan with parchment.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and egg until smooth.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients – Stir in cocoa powder, oat flour, and baking powder. Mix until just combined—don’t over-mix!
  4. Spread & Swirl – Pour batter into the pan and smooth the top. If you want extra cinnamon roll vibes, sprinkle cinnamon over the top and swirl with a knife.
  5. Bake – Bake for 18–22 minutes until set but still fudgy in the center.
  6. Drizzle & Serve – Once cooled, melt chocolate and drizzle over the top. Slice into squares and enjoy.

What to Serve with These Brownie Squares

These little beauties pair beautifully with:

  • A cold glass of milk (classic combo).
  • A cozy mug of chai or coffee.
  • A scoop of vanilla Greek yogurt for extra protein.

Tips for Making It Perfect

  • Don’t over-bake! They’re meant to be fudgy, not cakey.
  • Let them cool before drizzling chocolate, or it’ll melt right in.
  • Use runny peanut butter for the best texture. If yours is thick, warm it slightly.

Storage Instructions

  • Room Temp: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Fridge: Keep for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze squares (without drizzle) for up to 2 months. Add drizzle after thawing.

No, almond flour works too, but the texture will be slightly denser.

You can, but honestly—it takes them from “yum” to “WOW.”
