Description

Rich, fudgy, and packed with protein—these brownies satisfy your chocolate cravings and fuel your day!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup chocolate protein powder

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/2 cup almond flour

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or unsweetened applesauce)

  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup granulated sweetener (erythritol, coconut sugar, or regular sugar)

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (162°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, melted oil/butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla.

  3. Add dry ingredients: Stir in protein powder, cocoa powder, almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, and salt until just combined.

  4. Fold in extras: Gently fold in chocolate chips or nuts if using.

  5. Bake: Spread batter evenly in the pan. Bake 20–25 minutes, until edges are set and the center is just slightly underdone.

  6. Cool: Let brownies cool completely before slicing for the fudgiest texture.

Notes

  • For extra fudgy brownies, slightly underbake and chill before slicing.

  • Swap Greek yogurt for applesauce for a dairy-free version.

  • Adjust sweetness to taste or use your favorite sweetener.

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for longer freshness.
