Brownies are one of my favorite desserts! However, on my quest of healthy eating I've been trying to make delicious, guilt free bakes! This one turned out pretty awesome! Everyone in my family loved these mini slices of deliciousness! 
For this recipe, I used:
- 68 g light spelt flour
- 34 g cacao powder
- 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder
- A pinch of sea salt
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melt beforehand in microwave)
- 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 200 ml Greek vanilla yogurt (2% fat)
- 2 large eggs
- 15 g milk chocolate chips
- 15 g roughly chopped dark chocolate
- 20 g roughly chopped walnuts
Method:
- Line a 8'' square tin with baking paper and spray using light cooking spray.
- Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
- Mix the dry ingredients together (flour, baking powder, coffee granules, salt)
- In a separate container, mix the wet ingredients together (oil, maple syrup, eggs, yogurt)
- Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and combine until homogeneous
- Add the chocolate chips, chopped dark chocolate and walnuts and mix until well combined with the batter
- Spread the batter inside the lined cake tin and bake for roughly 25 minutes (this may vary according to your oven - to check if the cake is baked through, insert a kebab stick and if it comes out clean, your cake is ready)
- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and chopped walnuts for a Sunday afternoon treat!
