Silky 100 Calorie Fudge Brownies made healthy with rich dark chocolate and no added sugar or refined oil. The perfect chocolatey treat to satisfy a sweet tooth! Low Calorie + Gluten Free recipe!
Oh hey! Happy Labor Day! Hold the phone. How is it Labor Day already? I mean I must be getting old. I remember when I was a kid it felt like the days, weeks, months, years dragged on F-O-R-E-V-E-R. Now I blink and it's Christmas. I'm definitely not ready for Christmas.
In fact, I'm not sure I'm really ready for pumpkin. I've got some fun pumpkin recipes I've been working on, but I can't say I've been that into making them seeing as it's still a thousand degrees in Arizona. Age + heat + hormones. The struggle is real.
But I tell you what. Chocolate brownies loaded with antioxidants help. Like really help. Think silky, fudgy, melt-in-your-mouth brownies made with rich dark chocolate, and loaded with oat flour to make them dense and give them a boost of whole grains.
I like pairing gluten free oats with chocolate since they're a cholesterol shoveler (<- highly technical term). Oats are a good way to nutritionally balance sweets.
But I'm sure you could substitute Gluten Free baking flour, almond flour or even coconut flour to make these. If you use coconut flour, I recommend cutting the measurement to 1/2 cup though since it's ultra absorbent and this batter is already very thick and gooey. But oh yum! That's what makes it so good.
To make the fudge in these 100 Calorie Fudge Brownies, I added Greek yogurt in place of the oil which is what you would generally find in brownies. But not these babies! They're made healthy and have added protein thanks to that Greek yogurt. For my Paleo friends, try using coconut yogurt. I'm sure it would work as a replacement in these.
The best part is they're only 95 calories each and low fat! YEAH!!! Wait, what? YEAH! You heard that. Fudge Brownies less than 100 calories that are low in fat, decadent, gooey and irresistible tasting!
Now these 100 Calorie Fudge Brownies are small, but they're extremely rich and heavenly. They're not overly sweet where you'll want to eat the entire whole batch.
One is definitely enough! I don't know about you, but that's a plus for someone like me who has a tendency to overeat especially when something's really sweet. It's important to know your boundaries. But with these, there's not a problem whatsoever.
I am 100% positive you will love these little 100 Calorie Fudge Brownies! They're perfect as a low calorie, gluten free treat or healthy dessert that will have your guests oohing and ahhing over!
100 Calorie Fudge Brownies
Ingredients
- 2 egg whites
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup Gluten Free Oat Flour
- 1 tablespoon Gluten Free Oat Flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips dairy free
Instructions
- Preheat oven 325 F. Prepare a square 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper, allowing for the ends to hang over the sides for easy removal.
- In mixing bowl, whisk together egg whites with vanilla, Greek yogurt, coconut oil and maple syrup.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder and Gluten Free oat flour with baking powder.
- Add 1/4 of the dry mixture to the wet and fold into the batter. Continue doing this until all the dry mixture is folded into the wet batter. This will get thick and cake-y so be careful to not over mix.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared baking sheet and spread into a thin, evenly layer.
- Evenly disperse the chocolate chips to the top then push them into the batter.
- Bake 12 minutes until the brownies have set up and a toothpick can be inserted clean from the center.
- Remove from the oven and cool in pan 1 hour prior to removing and slicing into 12 bars.

What I Used For The Recipe
Can I substitute oat flour as can’t eat oats. Also I am gluten free.
I have not tried any other flours in the recipe so I don't know how it will turn out. I am GF as well and use GF oats. I would try regular GF flour.
Brownies came out amazing, delicious and quite easy to make. It's always a party hit.
Oh, so glad you liked them!
This is awesome recipe for 95 calories! I have been craving something that I can bake that has simple ingredients. Thanks!
I think that must mean they're meant for you!
These look amazing! It's hard to believe that they are only 95 cals <3
Greek yogurt for the win!
Sign me up! I've Ben having the craziest sweet cravings lately. I think it has something to do with painting for 8 hours a day days and days in a row but I can't get enough of the sweets. These might just do the trick!
Hard work is no different than hard exercise and brings on intense cravings. These are perfect because they're so rich that you won't feel that need for more than one.
I've been craving chocolate like crazy. Looks delicious Megan.
They're meant for you Jill!
