I’m sharing SPLENDA® Sweetener Products in my life as part of a sponsored series for Socialstars™ #SplendaSweeties #SweetSwaps
Peanut Butter Pieces Brownies, a low sugar fudgy brownie with no flour. They sure don’t taste skinny with all that chocolate & those peanut butter pieces.
Who loves a good, fudgy brownie? I sure do & so I’m always coming up with new & creative brownie recipes around here. I don’t think I have ever made a brownie recipe that I didn’t absolutely fall in love with. One of our favorites though is mixing peanut butter goodies into our brownies. It’s so good! The perfect combo if you ask me. So when it came time to whip of the dessert of the day for our Labor Day celebrations I just had to make these super fudgy brownies loaded with peanut butter pieces that are a huge hit!
Peanut Butter Pieces Brownies
Since I am also on a quest to make all the recipes I love a little better for me, I made these brownies with less sugar using NEW SPLENDA® Naturals Sugar & Stevia Blend. It’s a great replacement for granulated sugar it because it acts like sugar but with only half the calories. Pretty great, right? Same sweetness & delicious flavor.
Did I mention that these brownies are also made without flour? YEP!! This is why you have to make them. I was pretty excited to share that part with you too because the fact that I can make a baked treat with less sugar & no flour that still tastes just as decadent as ever is a huge win for me.
Peanut Butter Pieces Brownies
Just 1/2 a teaspoon of SPLENDA® Naturals Sugar & Stevia Blend gives you the same sweetness of a full teaspoon of traditional sugar. Anytime I can cut sugar, that’s a good thing.

Hi Gina, oh my! These do look good and I’m loving the ingredients. I’ve never baked with Stevia before, but I think I’m going to have to give it a go. I’ve never seen peanut butter candies, but I’m sure I could find a substitute. I do like a good brownie!
