Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 scoop (about 30g) chocolate protein powder
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon almond flour or oat flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
Optional
- 1 teaspoon chocolate chips
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Combine the chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, almond flour, and baking powder in a microwave-safe mug or small bowl. Stir thoroughly so all dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the milk and maple syrup (or honey) into the dry mixture until a thick batter forms. If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Optional Add-In: Sprinkle chocolate chips on top or fold them gently into the batter to add extra chocolate flavor and texture.
- Cook: Microwave the mixture on high for 30 to 40 seconds. The brownie should be cooked but still moist in the center for a gooey texture. Adjust microwaving time slightly based on the power of your microwave.
Notes
- Use any plant-based or dairy milk according to your preference.
- For a vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey and plant-based milk.
- Adjust cooking time depending on your microwave strength to avoid overcooking.
- Optional chocolate chips add texture and extra sweetness but can be omitted to reduce sugar.
- This recipe is perfect for a quick high-protein snack or dessert.
