Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp sweetener of choice (e.g., stevia, erythritol, or honey)
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder or cacao powder
- 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder
Optional Add-ins
- Chocolate chips (as many as you like!)
Instructions
- Mix – In a bowl, combine the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, and chocolate protein powder. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well blended. Then fold in the chocolate chips according to your preference.
- Prepare – Lightly grease a small microwave-safe dish or ramekin to prevent sticking. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared dish to ensure even cooking.
- Microwave – Cook the batter in the microwave for 90 seconds for a soft, lava cake-like texture, or for 120 seconds if you prefer a firmer, more traditional brownie consistency.
- Enjoy! – Carefully remove the dish from the microwave. Add your favorite toppings such as nuts, berries, or a drizzle of nut butter, and dig into your warm, protein-packed brownie.
Notes
- Adjust cooking time slightly depending on your microwave’s power.
- For vegan modifications, substitute the egg with a flax or chia egg and use a plant-based yogurt and protein powder.
- Add spices like cinnamon or a pinch of salt for enhanced flavor.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and taste.
- Use natural sweeteners like honey or stevia based on dietary preference.
