Ingredients
  

Brownie batter:

  • 1 egg
  • 50 g stevia*
  • 80 g 0% fat greek yogurt
  • 30 ml unsweetened almond milk*
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 50 g plain/all-purpose flour
  • 33 g unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 20 g dark chocolate chips

Banana bread:

  • 2 large (250g) ripe bananas
  • 1 egg
  • 75 g 0% fat greek yogurt
  • 75 g stevia*
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 130 g self-raising flour*
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 30 g dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 180ºC (350ºF). Line a 1lb loaf tin with parchment paper and set aside.

Brownie batter:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and stevia until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the yogurt, milk and vanilla and whisk to combine.
  • Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt and whisk until smooth and well combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and set aside.

Banana bread:

  • In a medium bowl, mash the bananas until very few lumps remain. Add the egg, yogurt, stevia and vanilla and whisk until well combined.
  • Add the flour, baking powder and ground cinnamon and whisk to combine.
  • Fold in 20g of the chocolate chips.

Assemble:

  • Pour half the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf tin.
  • Pour the brownie batter directly into the centre of the banana bread batter and cover with the remaining banana bread batter.
  • Smooth over to cover the brownie batter. Top with the remaining 10g of dark chocolate chips.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean or with very few crumbs. The top should be golden brown - if it's browning too quickly, then cover with foil to finish baking.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*Stevia - Can be subbed for any 0 calorie sweetener but be mindful of the conversion. The stevia I used is a 1:2 ratio of stevia to sugar so for the brownie batter you would need 100g of sugar and for the banana bread batter you'd need 150g sugar. 
*Unsweetened almond milk (brownie) - Can be subbed for any milk of your choice but the calories will differ. 
*Self-raising flour (banana bread) - Can be subbed for an equal amount of plain/all-purpose flour with the addition 1 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp baking soda.
