Ingredients
- 180mls olive oil
- 2 scoops Chocolate protein powder
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C. Grease a 20cm square baking tin with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chocolate protein powder, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Whisk again until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the batter.
- Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
- Place the baking tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake as the brownies can dry out.
- Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan on a wire rack before adding the peanut butter topping.
Peanut Butter Topping
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup good quality peanut butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener
- 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- In a microwave-safe bowl or on a stovetop, melt the butter and peanut butter together until smooth and well combined.
- Add the vanilla extract and gradually whisk in the monk fruit sweetener a little at a time until the mixture is creamy and well incorporated.
- Once the brownies have cooled, pour the peanut butter topping over the top, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the sugar-free chocolate chips over the peanut butter layer, pressing them gently into the topping.
- Place the brownies in the refrigerator for at least an hour to allow the topping to set.
