Dark Chocolate Chip Protein Brownie Bites







Gooey. Fudgey. Chocolatey. Perfection. These brownie bites will definitely impress you. The pictures really don't do them justice. They are so soft and gooey with a decadent chocolate flavor that will have you addicted! If you like your brownies more chewy, increase the cooking time by 2 minutes. If you like them gooey, check them around 6 minutes. I liked these gooey ~ they practically melt in your mouth. Let's not forget that they are "healthyfied"! Although they taste really naughty, I don't feel as guilty putting down a few of these since there are only 70 calories/brownie bite. Enjoy!

Ingredients

3 tablespoons plain greek yogurt
3 egg whites
¼ cup coconut flour(or 1/3 cup oat flour)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ cup xylitol (or sweetener of choice)
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar-free chocolate chips

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray. 

2. Add almond butter, greek yogurt, and egg whites to a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.

3. Add protein powder, coconut flour, almond meal flour, cocoa powder, xylitol, and baking powder to the mixing bowl and stir together.

4. Stir in chocolate chips.

5. Make 18 brownie bites, using either your hands or a small ice-cream scooper, and place them on the baking sheet.

6. Bake in the oven for 6-8 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes. Enjoy!

  2. I have made these twice already! Thank you so much for this awesome recipe. Tastes just like brownies!! I did try with oat flour but the batter came out much thinner, so I would definitely stick with the coconut flour. I also tried with peanut butter and almond butter and they were both delicious!

    1. That is awesome to hear! I'm thrilled you like them :) They are some of my favorite. Yes, oat flour definitely doesn't absorb as much liquid as the coconut flour. Thanks for your feedback. Happy baking!

  3. Loved your chocolate brownie recipe! Brownie is one of my favorites which I love to make with clarified butter or ghee. Instead of using butter, it is better to use a spoonful of pure cow ghee. Is ghee good for you? It is one of the most common questions for food enthusiasts. Besides being healthy, ghee is delicious at the same time.
