Fudgy, rich, and packed with protein — this high-protein brownie takes just two minutes to make and is the perfect quick treat for chocolate lovers on the go!
Ingredients
¼ cup whey protein powder (chocolate or vanilla flavor)
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp almond butter or peanut butter
2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (or 1 tbsp powdered erythritol for low-carb)
2–3 tbsp water or milk (adjust for consistency)
Pinch of salt
½ tsp vanilla extract
Optional: sugar-free chocolate chips or crushed nuts for topping
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, mix protein powder, cocoa powder, almond butter, syrup, water/milk, salt, and vanilla until smooth and thick.
Microwave for 60–90 seconds, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.
Let cool slightly, then slice in half or enjoy straight from the mug!
