Put the three eggs, the yogurt and the avocado in a mixer and mix until the avocado disappears.
In a cup or small bowl, pour the two tablespoons of hot water and the cocoa powder. We will end up getting a kind of pasta, which we will add to the previous mixture while continuing to beat.
When you have well mixed avocado, eggs, yogurt and cocoa; add the flour little by little, the stevia and the vanilla extract. Beat everything very well.
In a mold previously greased with a little olive oil, pour the mixture and bake for 30 minutes.
After about half an hour, take the brownie out of the oven and let it cool to room temperature for 10 minutes. Then put them in the fridge for 20 minutes for consistency.
