Scale
Brownie Mixture
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp sweetener of choice (e.g., honey, stevia, maple syrup)
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
- 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder
- Chocolate chips (as many as you like!)
Instructions
- Mix: Combine the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, and chocolate protein powder in a bowl. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated. Then fold in the desired amount of chocolate chips to add extra chocolaty bursts.
- Prepare: Lightly grease a small microwave-safe dish (like a ramekin or mug) to prevent sticking. Pour the batter evenly into the dish.
- Microwave: Cook in the microwave on high for 90 seconds if you prefer a gooey lava cake texture, or 120 seconds if you want a firmer, more traditional brownie consistency.
- Enjoy: Let it cool slightly, then add your favorite toppings such as nuts, berries, or a drizzle of nut butter, and dig in for a quick, delicious protein-packed treat.
Notes
- Adjust sweetener quantity based on your preferred sweetness level and type used.
- Use a microwave-safe dish to avoid any accidents.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use a vegan protein powder.
- Adding chocolate chips is optional but highly recommended for extra texture and flavor.
- The cooking time may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave, so monitor closely to avoid overcooking.
