Recipe: Protein Chocolate Brownies

No one ever said that eating healthy had to be bland and boring. Using the right ingredients, you can create the most flavoursome dishes.
I am a massive fan of cakes, buns and anything baking with chocolate, however the wheat content of cakes, pastries and other yummy bakes, leaves me feeling very bloated and ill. This is a very common trait amoung people these days, and it is becoming more known about the alternatives we can use to still enjoy those sweet treats we love.
The recipe below is for a clean eating chocolate and salted caramel protein brownie. I have used ground almonds as my alternative to wheat based flour.

Ingredients

Brownie
2 medium Bananas mashed
2 eggs
Half cup ground almonds / almond flour
Half cup cacao powder
1 scoop of chocolate/vanilla/caramel protein powder
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1/3 cup runny honey
1/4 tbsp rock salt
1/3 cup greek yoghurt

Chocolate Topping
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
1 tbsp Cacao Powder
1 tbsp MyProtein Maple Syrup
Pinch of salt

What to do:

Brownie
Pre-heat oven at 180c. Line a small baking tray with a baking sheet and grease it.
With all the ingredients for the brownie simply add them all into a large mixing bowl.
Mix until it is a smooth consistency. Pour the mixture into the lined baking tray and bake on the middle shelf for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.

Topping
Chuck all the ingredients into a new mixing bowl until all lumps have gone. Wait for the brownies too cool and then pour the chocolate over the top of the brownies and place in the fridge for 20 minuts or until chocolate hardens.

Then Enjoy!
