Delicious Gains

Our Protein Brownies offer a delightful twist to the classic treat. Packed with protein powder, almond flour, and Greek yogurt, these brownies are a delicious way to reward yourself without straying from your fitness journey. Of course, just like anything, don't overdo it.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup chocolate-flavored protein powder
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup of milk of your choice
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free syrup or artificial sweetener
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a square baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate-flavored protein powder, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Ensure a homogeneous mixture.

3. Combine Wet Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, blend the Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until you achieve a smooth consistency.

4. Create the Batter:

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture forms a thick, fudgy batter.

5. Add Chocolate Chips:

Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter for those delightful pockets of chocolate.

6. Transfer to Baking Pan:

Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly to maintain a uniform thickness.

7. Bake:

Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on them, and perform the toothpick test—insert a toothpick into the center, and it should come out with a few moist crumbs.

8. Cool and Cut:

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for approximately 15 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares or desired shapes.

9. Enjoy (the most important step):

Indulge in these Protein Brownies as a delightful treat that combines the best of both worlds – decadent flavor and protein-packed nutrition.
