Protein Brownies

These healthy protein brownies are ultra rich and fudgy, with up to 15 grams of protein each.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/3 cup protein powder
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder ((I like Dutch))
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup melted coconut oil (or butter)
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 cup sugar (or granulated erythritol)
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips ((optional))

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. 2Grease an 8-inch pan with oil or fat-free spray, or line it with parchment paper, and set aside.
3. 3In a large mixing bowl, stir all of the brownie ingredients well.
4. 4Spread the chocolate brownie batter evenly into the pan. You can add a second sheet of parchment paper over the top to help smooth and press the mix down evenly, then remove this second sheet before cooking.
5. 5Bake on the oven's middle rack for 20 minutes, then carefully remove from the oven.
6. 6Let the brownie pan cool on the counter. They will firm up as they cool and continue to firm up even more if you very loosely cover and refrigerate overnight.
