These healthy protein brownies are rich, fudgy and come together quickly in one bowl!
Ingredients
1 cup
Almond butter
(creamy or nut butter of choice)
2 large
Egg
1/2 cup
Maple syrup
(pure)
1/4 cup
Almond milk, unsweetened
1 tsp
Vanilla extract, pure
1/2 cup
Protein powder, Sun Warrior, chocolate
1/4 cup
Cocoa powder, unsweetened
1/4 tsp
Himalayan sea salt
1 tsp
Baking powder
171 gm
Lily’s Dark Chocolate Baking Chips
(plus more for topping))
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line with parchment.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together nut butter, eggs, maple syrup, almond milk and vanilla extract.
Add protein powder, cocoa powder, sea salt and baking powder into the mixing bowl and stir until combined. If you notice your batter is on the drier side (which could happen depending on what almond butter or protein powder you use), add a splash more milk!
Gently fold in chocolate chips.
Transfer mixture to the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until brownies are set in the center and a toothpick comes out clean. Let brownies cool completely (trust me, they test better cool, plus you won’t burn your mouth). Cut into squares and enjoy!
