Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp sweetener of choice
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder (or cacao)
- 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder
- Chocolate chips (add as many as you like!)
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a bowl, mix the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, and chocolate protein powder until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Then fold in your desired amount of chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
- Grease the dish: Lightly grease a small microwave-safe dish to ensure the brownie doesn’t stick.
- Microwave: Pour the batter into the prepared dish. Microwave on high for 90 seconds if you prefer a lava cake consistency, or up to 120 seconds for a firmer brownie texture.
- Serve: Add any toppings you like such as more chocolate chips, nuts, or a drizzle of syrup, then enjoy your quick, single-serve protein brownie warm.
Notes
- Adjust cooking time based on your microwave’s wattage and preferred brownie texture.
- Use a sweetener compatible with microwaving, like stevia or erythritol, for best results.
- For a vegan option, substitute the egg and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives and adjust protein powder accordingly.
- Adding chocolate chips before microwaving creates melty pockets of chocolate; adding after will give a different texture.
- This recipe is perfect for those looking for a quick, gluten-free, protein-rich dessert.
