Marble Greek Yogurt Brownie
Healthy Marble Greek Yogurt Brownie recipe. Easy to make, this dessert idea is nut free and kid friendly.
I have suddenly gone on a Greek yogurt kick. You can do so much with it: Greek yogurt cheesecake, Greek yogurt strawberry cranberry smoothie, and now I present you the marble Greek yogurt brownie.
Seriously, everywhere I use cream cheese I now use Greek yogurt. Heck, I may even start putting it on my bagels!
Hmmm.. too far? No, I think I'll just stick to replacing it in my baking. For now..
The Greek yogurt swirl in these brownies is more chewy than fudgy, giving it a very interesting texture when mixed with the brownies. I was afraid it wouldn't go well together, but my husband thought otherwise. He gobbled the entire batch in under 2 days!
Now that's what I would call a success!
What do you need to make these Marble Greek Yogurt Brownie?
This recipe surprisingly doesn't use too many ingredients. All you need is:
- butter
- dark chocolate
- eggs
- banana
- white sugar
- vanilla
- flour

Storing this Marble Greek Yogurt Brownie
Since this brownie recipe is made with yogurt, you will need to store these brownies in an airtight container in the fridge. They will be good in the fridge for up to 1 week, but good luck keeping them in there that long!
You can also freeze the cooled brownies for up to 3 months. To defrost, place in the fridge!

Love greek yogurt in recipes! So creamy and delicious. Nice swirls!
Cathleen, this looks glorious! Love the beautiful swirls.
I love to use Greek Yoghurt in my bakes as well. This looks delicious and rich, but lightened by the use of yoghurt.
Looks delicious! Have a great day!
That swirl looks so nice and so tempting! Lovely brownie.. Oh God, another brownie on my list 🙂
I love the swirls!
Greek yogurt really is good stuff - I love it! And these brownies look exceptional. Not to mention pretty. I'll be right over - save some for me! 😉
This is so beautiful! And yes, Greek yogurt on everything is wonderful!
These brownies look very cool! Love Greek yogurt as well but find it expensive. A couple years back I learned it's just plain yogurt with less water content. Now I make my own...it's really easy. I've posted the steps on my blog. Here's the link if you're interested: http://www.cookapalooza.org/2011/12/make-your-own-greek-yogurt-on-cheap.html
Brownies look cute with the marbled effect!
