πŸ›’ Ingredients

  • βœ“ 75g Greek yogurt (0% fat)
  • βœ“ 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • βœ“ 1 whole large egg
  • βœ“ 2 large egg whites
  • βœ“ 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • βœ“ 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • βœ“ 1/4 cup almond flour
  • βœ“ 1/3 cup caster sugar
  • βœ“ 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • βœ“ 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • βœ“ 3 tbsp tahini paste (unsweetened)
  • βœ“ 1/2 tbsp honey
  • βœ“ 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • βœ“ 1 tbsp hot water (to loosen tahini)

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

1. Prep your tin: Preheat oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F). Line a small loaf tin or 4-inch square brownie tin with parchment, leaving overhang for easy removal.
2. Blend wet base: In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, melted coconut oil, whole egg, and egg whites until smooth and pale. This takes 1–2 minutes.
3. Mix dry ingredients: Sift cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt into a separate bowl. Whisk to break up lumps.

4. Combine wet & dry: Pour wet mix into dry ingredients. Fold gently with a spatula until just combinedβ€”don't overmix. Batter should be thick and fudgy.
5. Prepare tahini swirl: In a small bowl, whisk tahini paste with honey, sea salt, and hot water until you have a drizzleable consistency (like loose peanut butter).
6. Layer & swirl: Spread half the brownie batter into your tin. Drizzle half the tahini mixture in thin lines across the top. Add remaining batter, then marble with remaining tahini using a skewer or knife.
7. Bake: Bake 22–25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter). Brownies continue cooking as they cool.
8. Cool & set: Let cool in tin for 10 minutes, then lift onto a wire rack using parchment overhang. Cool to room temperature before slicing into 2 large brownies.
