Ingredients for 88 Calorie Brownies

  • Unsweetened Applesauce
  • Vanilla Extract
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • Unbleached All Purpose Flour
  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • Instant Espresso Powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Semisweet Mini Chocolate Chips

How to Make 88 Calorie Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 large egg whites, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Sprinkle 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the batter.
  7. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (slightly wet is okay).
  8. Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Cut into 12 equal squares and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
