Ingredients
Scale
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp sweetener of choice (monk fruit, stevia, or coconut sugar)
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder (or cacao)
- 1 tbsp chocolate protein powder (whey, casein, or plant-based)
- Chocolate chips (as desired)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, sweetener, cocoa powder, and protein powder until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Transfer to Dish: Lightly grease a microwave-safe dish and pour the batter in, spreading it evenly.
- Microwave: Cook for 90 seconds for a soft, lava-like texture or 120 seconds for a firmer brownie.
- Serve: Let cool slightly, add toppings if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
- For a gooier texture: Reduce cooking time to 90 seconds.
- For added crunch: Stir in chopped nuts like walnuts or almonds.
- For a vegan version: Replace egg with a flax egg and use dairy-free Greek yogurt.
- For extra sweetness: Use mashed banana instead of sweetener.
