Why this remake works

  • Oat flour replaces much of the refined white flour.
  • Greek yogurt and a little oil stand in for a large butter block.
  • Cocoa delivers chocolate flavour without needing a huge sugar load.
  • Portioned into nine squares for clearer serving sizes.

Ingredients

Dry ingredients

Fine oat flour
120 g
Cocoa powder, unsweetened
40 g
Baking powder
1 tsp
Salt
pinch

Wet ingredients

Greek yogurt (0–2%)
150 g
Eggs
2
Light brown sugar
80 g
Olive oil or rapeseed oil
2 tbsp
Vanilla extract
1 tsp
Dark chocolate chips (70%)
40 g

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C). Line an 18–20 cm square tin with baking parchment.
  2. Whisk oat flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
  3. In a second bowl, whisk yogurt, eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mix until just combined. Stir in most of the chocolate chips, reserving a few for the top.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the tin, scatter the remaining chips, and bake for 20–24 minutes. The centre should be set but still slightly soft — a skewer should come out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter.
  6. Cool in the tin for 15 minutes, then lift out and cool fully before cutting into 9 squares.

Chef tips

  • Pull them early for a fudgier centre; overbaking dries yogurt-based batters.
  • Blend rolled oats to a fine flour if you do not have oat flour.

Substitutions

  • Light brown sugar → Coconut sugar (same weight)
  • Chocolate chips → Chopped dark chocolate
