Macros are for one serving as written. Make gives you more servings of the same size; Portion resizes one serving and moves the macros with it.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs (100g)
  • 120g (1/2 cup) Greek yogurt, 0%
  • 60g (2 scoops) whey protein, chocolate
  • 60g (1/2 cup) almond flour
  • 30g (5 tbsp) cocoa powder
  • 50g (2.5 tbsp) honey
  • 30g (1 oz) dark chocolate, 85%, chopped
  • 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp salt

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 175C / 350F and line a 12-hole muffin tin with cases.
  2. Whisk the eggs, yogurt, honey and vanilla together first.
  3. Sift the whey, almond flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt over the top and fold until just combined.
  4. Stop folding the moment there are no dry streaks. Whey toughens dramatically when overworked - this is the main way protein brownies go rubbery.
  5. Fold in two thirds of the chopped chocolate and divide between the cases.
  6. Press the remaining chocolate into the tops.
  7. Bake 14-16 min ONLY. They must come out looking slightly underdone in the middle.
  8. Whey continues cooking in the residual heat, so a brownie baked until it looks right in the oven is dry by the time it cools. Leave them in the tin 10 min, then move to a rack.

Tip: pull them out early and trust the carry-over. A protein brownie that looks done in the oven is a protein biscuit on the plate.
