I served it with a dollop of plain greek yogurt. It did not pass the toothpick test right out of the oven but I put it back in the over after turning it off and waited 5 minutes and it did. Thank you for the idea and to any one who likes realy moist brownies try the tofu addition. If you love nutty flavors, try unfiltered roasted penut oil in place of vegitable oil in this dish.

I am a diabetic and this is a great organic liquid sweetener. I have been replacing sugar with this and wanted to do the same with your brownie recipe. Please let me know if anyone has tried this.

Replaced the oil with 3 tablespoons fruit puree (Sunsweet "Lighter Bake", basically a Prune puree). 2. Added 3 Tbl wheat germ 3. Added 1 Tbl instant espresso (for flavor). 4. Reduced the water to a "scant" 1/4 cup. Viola! FAT FREE! Although I probably should have let the brownies bake for 35-40 minutes, I took them out @ 30 mins. The center was a bit undercooked. Just a warning! Otherwise - delicious!!! Thanks- love your site. Linda Here’s my adaptations…

Though, I would find it ever so difficult to say goodbye to Nigel's Brownies, I would certainly like to try these. It’s great to see a healthier version to a Brownie recipe!

They have everything I want in a brownie, and less of what I don't want--too much sugar and butter. I've been trying to use more whole wheat flour in baking, too, so these go to the top of the list!
