Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup (90g) almond flour
  • 3/4 cup (90g) chocolate protein powder
  • 1/4 cup (25g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1/3 cup (60g) dark chocolate chips, plus extra for topping

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment. Whisk almond flour, protein powder, cocoa, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
  2. In another bowl, whisk eggs, yogurt, maple syrup, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Fold the wet mixture into the dry until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Spread batter into the prepared pan, top with extra chips, and bake 18 to 22 minutes until edges are set and a toothpick has moist crumbs.
  5. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then lift out, slice into 9 squares, and serve.

Notes

Letting the brownies cool completely on a rack before slicing really matters for clean cuts. If you want a deeper chocolate hit, use dark cocoa powder and extra-dark chocolate chips.
