One-Bowl Lemon Brownies | Easy Recipe for Lemon Lovers 🍋

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving handles for easy removal.

Grate the lemon zest, ensuring to only grate the yellow part.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda. Optionally whisk the dry ingredients together.

Add 2 eggs at room temperature to the bowl.

Add 1/4 cup of low-fat Greek yogurt to the bowl.

Add 3 tablespoons of oil (vegetable, canola, or extra virgin olive oil) to the bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice to the bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of lemon zest to the bowl.

Mix all the ingredients together with a spatula until combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into the corners and removing air bubbles.

Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for 18-20 minutes (18 minutes if using convection bake).

Let the brownies cool in the dish for 5-10 minutes before removing them.

Prepare the lemon glaze by combining 1 heaping cup of icing sugar with the remaining lemon zest.

Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the icing sugar and mix, adjusting with 2-5 tablespoons of lemon juice to achieve the desired consistency.

Pour the glaze over the brownies once they have cooled slightly.
