My First Time Making These Breakfast Brownies
My first time making these breakfast brownies was amazing! I’ve been seeing this recipe for some time now, and I knew I had to try it. I was kinda sceptical about the crackly top and fudginess that each recipe claimed. Like, I didn’t think breakfast brownies could look and have the same texture as regular brownies.
However, I tried it anyway. I adjusted the recipe to make my own version because of the ingredients I had at the time. I mixed Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Was that all? No. I decided to add espresso powder because I’ve observed that it makes chocolate things taste ten times better without making them taste like coffee. And that was a good decision! I baked this all in an 8×8 baking dish for 30 minutes. I was so pleasantly surprised! I’m not joking, I made them in the evening, and they were gone the next day. Everyone in my family loved them!
One Mistake I Made 😬
When I made these breakfast brownies for the first time, I made one mistake. I sliced and served them way too soon! They didn’t cool for long enough! Basically, I let them cool for about ten minutes. When I sliced them, they turned into chocolate pudding instead of fudgy brownies. Thankfully, they firmed up in about one hour, and everyone loved them. They were saved! I made these brownies again the next day and made sure to leave them in the fridge for a few hours. They were so much better! Since then, I’ve always kept them in the fridge for a few hours to make them set up properly. So, when you make these brownies, you must let them cool for at least an hour to avoid chocolate pudding!
FAQs (You’re Welcome)
Here are some FAQs for this recipe (you’re welcome):
Can I use honey instead? You can, but you will have to add a scant 3/4 cup of cocoa powder instead of a full one.
What should the consistency of the brownie batter be? It should be like runny pudding. It shouldn’t be thick.
Should I add chocolate chips on top? You absolutely can for a more authentic brownie taste. But remember that this recipe has 1/2 cup of maple syrup! That amount makes these brownies so sweet! They aren’t as bitter as some other chocolate breakfast recipes. Also, I didn’t add chocolate because I didn’t want it to affect the crackly top. But if you don’t care about the crackly top and love chocolate, add chocolate chips.
How do I store/freeze these? Store these in the fridge for I’d say no longer than a week. If you’re planning to eat these in one day (like me 🤪), then you can leave them out. And for freezing these, just freeze them in a Ziploc bag and microwave in a microwave-safe dish when you’re ready to eat!
