📝 Ingredients (1 Serving)
- 1 scoop (30g) chocolate whey protein powder – (24g protein)
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp oat flour or almond flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (or any milk)
- 1 tbsp Greek yogurt – (4g protein)
- 1 tsp peanut butter – (3g protein)
- 1–2 tsp sweetener of choice (stevia, monk fruit, etc.)
- A pinch of salt
- Optional: Sugar-free chocolate chips or walnuts
👩🍳 How to Make (Step-by-Step)
- Mix dry ingredients:
In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, combine protein powder, cocoa powder, oat/almond flour, baking powder, sweetener, and a pinch of salt. - Add wet ingredients:
Stir in almond milk, Greek yogurt, and peanut butter. Mix until you have a thick brownie batter (add 1 tsp more milk if too dry). - Microwave:
Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds. Keep an eye on it—don’t overcook, or it will become dry. - Rest & serve:
Let it cool for 1 minute (brownie firms up as it cools). Top with sugar-free chocolate chips, Greek yogurt, or fresh berries if desired.
📝 Notes
- Adjust sweetness based on your taste.
- Different protein powders absorb liquid differently. If the batter feels too dry, add 1–2 tsp extra milk.
- For extra richness, drizzle sugar-free chocolate syrup on top.
- Best enjoyed warm, right after cooking.
