Instructions

How to Make Flourless Almond Butter Protein Brownies

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8×8-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper. Lightly grease the paper for easy removal later.
  • Combine the creamy natural almond butter, maple syrup (or honey), eggs, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  • Add the protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking soda to the wet mixture. Mix gently, ensuring that all your dry ingredients are incorporated without overmixing.
  • Fold the chocolate chips into the batter if you're using them to add an extra layer of chocolatey goodness.
  • Spoon the thick brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, testing for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center.
  • Cool the brownies completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

Optional: Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before serving for a delightful contrast in flavors.
