Peanut butter cup protein brownies, yum! Despite their calorific appearance these brownies actually live on the healthier side of life. They're super fudgy, peanut butter heaven and chocolate indulgence. This is one recipe that I have totally fallen in love with.
- 2 scoops of chocolate protein powder (60ml scoop)
- 2 tbsps unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp peanut butter (I used Meridian crunchy peanut butter)
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp baking powder
- dark chocolate chips for decoration
-
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and prepare a brownie tin for baking.
-
Measure out the protein powder, cocoa powder and baking powder and place in a bowl. Mix in the eggs, vanilla extract and almond milk and stir until well combined.
-
Stir well before pouring into a prepared tin.
-
Add dollops of peanut butter randomly to the mix and swirl with a spoon then sprinkle over some dark chocolate chips for decoration.
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting - devour and enjoy!
