Single-Serve Chocolate Protein Brownie

ALL YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS RECIPE

Coconut flour: Add flour for more of a cake-like taste and texture.
AstroFlav Chocolate IsoMix: Chocolate works best for brownie taste, but you can any flavor protein!
Cocoa powder: Unsweetened and sifted to ensure there are no clumps.
Zero-calorie sweetener I used Stevia brown sugar but you can use SF maple syrup or honey to add sweetness.
Almond milk: I used unsweetened almond milk, but coconut or soy are both great.
Egg white: Can use the whole egg, but just the white works well.
Vanilla extract
Chocolate chips

KITCHEN EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR THIS RECIPE

Ramekin single-serve bowl

TIPS FOR CREATING CHOCOLATE PROTEIN BROWNIE

Don’t overcook: Mug cakes, especially protein powder mug cakes, cook quickly in the microwave, so be mindful not to overcook them. Start by cooking it for a minute and if it is still under-done, microwave in 20-second bursts until done.
Use a microwave-safe mug: Ensure that the mug you use is microwave-safe and that is a little larger than expected. This will prevent any of the cake batter from overflowing.
Mix well: Be very thorough when making the protein mug cake batter to prevent clumps. Protein powder tends to clump together.
Experiment with toppings: Transform your high protein mug cake into something decedant by adding a scoop of protein ice cream, yogurt, or pudding on top.
