Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp sweetener of choice (such as stevia, erythritol, or honey)
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
  • 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder
  • Chocolate chips (add as many as you like!)

Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, and chocolate protein powder. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips, mixing gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  3. Prepare Dish: Lightly grease a small microwave-safe dish or ramekin to prevent sticking.
  4. Microwave Cooking: Pour the batter into the prepared dish and microwave on high for 90 seconds if you prefer a lava cake-like consistency, or up to 120 seconds for a denser, firmer brownie texture.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove carefully from microwave, add any toppings you desire such as nuts or a drizzle of nut butter, and enjoy your warm, protein-packed brownie immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt with a dairy-free yogurt for a dairy-free option.
  • Adjust sweetener amount depending on your preference and the type of sweetener used.
  • Microwave wattages vary; start with shorter time if unsure to avoid overcooking.
  • Feel free to add nuts, berries, or a spoonful of peanut butter on top for extra flavor and texture.
  • This recipe is best eaten fresh as microwaved protein brownies can harden when cooled.
