Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup Whey protein powder, chocolate flavor
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt, plain
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In another large bowl, combine unsweetened applesauce and Greek yogurt. Stir in the eggs, one at a time, until well incorporated. Add maple syrup and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula until a thick batter forms.

Step 5

Fold in the dark chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using, until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out into an even layer.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your protein-rich treat!
