Healthy Chocolate Brownies
Cook Time: 45 Mins
Ingredients:
1.5 cup mashed overripe banana
¾ cup nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew)
⅓ cup cocoa powder
⅓ cup ProCare Health Chocolate Protein Powder
1–2 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
½ cup chocolate chips (or 5.3 ProCare Calcium Dark Chocolate Bars for 33 less calories + added Calcium & Vitamin D)
Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a square brownie pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
-
Add mashed banana, nut butter, cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, vanilla extract, and salt to a large bowl. Mix until evenly combined. Then, mix in the chocolate chips.
-
Pour brownie batter into the square pan. Spread across the pan in an even layer.
-
Bake brownies for 35-40 minutes. After, remove from the oven and allow brownies to cool completely. Finally, slice and enjoy!
Tips & Notes:
- Use a 7×7-inch or 8×8-inch baking pan.
- Be sure you let the brownies cool completely before slicing them. They are super moist and, therefore, quite delicate when warm.
- The nutrition information reflects ½ cup chocolate chips. For a low sugar option, use stevia-sweetened chocolate chips.
