Ingredients
  

Wet

  • 170 gram Greek Yogurt Plain 0% Fat
  • 33 gram Egg white
  • 30 gram Unsweetened Applesauce
  • 50 gram Water

Dry

  • 40 gram Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 30 gram Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 20 gram All Purpose Flour
  • 4 gram Baking powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 F.
  • Add all wet ingredients into a bowl and mix until combined.
  • Add and combine all dry ingredients into another bowl. I like to sift the cacao and flour through a colander to make sure there are no lumps.
  • Make a hole in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.
  • Fold in the dry ingredients, do not over mix. It is better that there are some lumps in the batter than over mixing it.
  • Pour into a 8 inch oven safe pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let cool before eating! The cocoa powder needs to cool before eating. If you eat it right out of the oven it has more of a bitter flavor.

Helpful hints:
If you are sensitive to sugar substitutes or want it extra sweet add some real sugar to the recipe. Try adding 30 grams of real sugar, it only adds 60 calories to the whole recipe.

Try a different cocoa powder. ‘Natural’ cocoa powder is highly acidic and would increase the bitter flavor. When baking, use Dutch-processed cocoa powder (sometimes called “alkalized,” “European style,” or “Dutched”) because it is milder and smoother. Here is some from Amazon:
