100 Calorie Brownie
I’m obsessed with this 100 Calorie Single Serving Brownie! If you’re like me then when you make brownies, it’s a batch. There’s 2 of us who live here and the cats can’t eat chocolate, so what do I have to do? Ok, I have to eat them all. Remember these black bean brownies? Yeah, I would eat them all if they were nearby!
I mean if not, they go bad and we wouldn’t want that. I mean, ok, I could share with friends, but I could also not share with friends and just eat them all myself. This is great, but also very bad.
Healthy Brownie Recipe
So what do you do when you want a brownie but you don’t want to make a entire batch to prevent the guilt? You make single serving 100 calorie brownies! You microwave them and they’re done in a minute.
These will hit your chocolate craving without the guilt – isn’t that the best?
A few more facts on these brownies:
They are really good. Last winter these were our post dinner, dessert favorites.
These are made with applesauce, no oil. I recommend my home applesauce recipe here. Yum!
If you want to make your brownie slightly more creamy, then add a teaspoon of Nutella. Yes the calories will go up a bit, but it’s still much healthier than the usual brownie.
You can easily freeze them. Directions are at the bottom of this post!
Did you guys know how easy powdered sugar is to make? I had no idea! I always like to sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top of my sweets. For 1 cup of powdered confectioners sugar: 1 cup regular sugar + 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Just blend it up until it’s powdery. Boom! Powdered Sugar!

Kafs says
This recipe is amazing! Some low-calorie mug cakes call for artificial sweetener, and to me, that is all you can taste. This recipe uses normal ingredients and tastes so good! I can have one anytime I want and feel like I’m cheating. Thank you!
Pamela says
Hey Kafs, I’m glad you found this recipe and like it! Keep on enjoying, it’s almost guilt free. 😉 Thanks for commenting!
Roland says
This was DELICIOUS! I did only 1/2 tbsp sugar, and added a tsp Nutella as suggested.
Only needed 45 seconds in the microwave.
Stunning, bookmarked, will make this again! Thanks for sharing!
Pamela says
Hey Roland, I’m SO happy to hear you liked this brownie! Thanks for commenting! 🙂
Nadia says
Can I replace applesauce with yogurt. We don’t get applesauce where I’m from 😍love the idea of a single serving and 100 cal. Cal counting here
Pamela says
Yes, you absolutely can use yogurt instead! It will create a creamy brownie! Enjoy!
Roland says
Here neither, we make our own applesauce 🙂
Diane O'Rourke says
Can you tell me how many carbs are in the brownie?
Thank you.
Beth says
This is a really yummy desert and so filling we put a little cream on it. I wonder if you could do a small tin in the oven. Anyway thanks so much
Daniel says
if you want to bake this in the oven, what temperature should you use and how long should you bake it for?
Pamela says
Hey Daniel, I’ve never baked it in the oven but if you scroll up there are so comments that people have successfully!
Daniel says
do you use sweetened or unsweetened applesauce?
Pamela says
Hey Daniel, in general I prefer unsweetened applesauce – plus it’s less calories.
Dee says
Have you ever cooked these in the oven? If so, what temperature and how long?
Maureen Jasovsky says
This looks really good. What size is the cup that you put the brownie mixture in?
Pamela says
Hey Maureen, mine are about 3.75-4 inches. Enjoy the brownies!
Sia says
What can I replace apple sauce with?
Pamela says
Hey Sia, you could use banana puree or oil but the calories will slightly change. Enjoy!
Orange says
Can you use caramel syrup instead of apple sauce?
Pamela says
I wouldn’t recommend using caramel syrup instead of applesauce. It will raise the calories, and the liquid won’t bake the same.
Tory says
I have to say, I was skeptical about this since I’ve tried so many single serving desserts, but this one “takes the cake” ? I did add a dash of maple syrup since my applesauce was unsweetened. So good!
Pamela says
Hey Tory – that makes me so happy to hear! Glad you enjoyed this brownie – thanks for letting me know!
Alyssa says
I find that adding a splash of vanilla takes this recipe to the next level!
Pamela says
Yum, I will try that Alyssa!
