I love brownies, but unfortunately the traditional recipe, full of sugar and butter is really very caloric and not recommended for both those on a diet and for those who want to keep an eye on the line.

A normal brownie has 129/140 calories depending on the size. With this diet brownie recipe, you save more than 40.
Each brownie has only 85 calories.

The recipe for these dietary brownies is the closest I know to the traditional version and also lighter than those found on the net because it does not include butter or traditional sugar.

Another feature of this recipe is that these dietary brownies are low on the glycemic index. Seeing is believing!

DIET BROWNIES: 85 CALORIES EACH

Ingredients for 16 brownies. 

80 gr. wholemeal flour
40 gr. bitter cocoa
1/2 sachet vanilla yeast
a teaspoon of coffee
a pinch of salt
160 grams of milk chocolate with whole hazelnuts 
100 grams of puree or apple compote (brand Melinda or similar)
2 medium eggs
60 gr. of erythrol or 50 grams of truvia.

Method. 

In a saucepan, melt the milk chocolate, mix it well until it is lukewarm and then add one whole egg at a time, the coffee and the apple puree.

In a bowl put flour, cocoa, salt, yeast, truvia: mix the powders and add the chocolate cream. The dough should be very creamy (neither liquid nor slow) but if it is too thick, add a spoonful of water. Take a rectangular oven dish, with the longest side of about 25 cm and the shortest of at least 15.

Line it with parchment paper and pour the mixture, leveling it well

Bake the brownies in the oven at 180 degrees for at least 30 minutes, do the toothpick test, and possibly extend the cooking for another 8 minutes. When the mixture is out of the oven and cold, cut it into four rows for four cubes in a row, to obtain sixteen brownies.

• Suggestions: for an extra dark result, use dark chocolate instead of milk hazelnut chocolate. You can make blondies using 200 grams of white chocolate with hazelnuts instead of milk and totally eliminating the bitter cocoa. In this case, do not add water.
