I had a ripe banana sitting around and decided to throw a few things together. I just love when something turns out just like I wanted. It's super satisfying. Today, it was
Chocolate Zucchini Protein Brownies. Yes, Zucchini. Zucchinis are great for baking because they are a low carb vegetable, help keep things moist, and they blend very well with other flavors.
What you'll need:
- 1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder
- 1/3 grated zucchini, about 2/3 of a cup
- 2 egg whites
- 2 packets of raw stevia
- 1/2 a teaspoon baking powder
- 5 drops of chocolate SweetLeaf liquid stevia
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
First, I mashed up the banana in a bowl and thew in the grated zucchini. Then, I added the protein powder, stevia, and coconut flour. After it was well mixed I added the 2 egg whites and finally the liquid stevia.
Preheat oven to 370 degrees and pour batter into a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, until you can stick a toothpick in the middle and have it come out clean.
I can not provide nutritional information, as this recipe may vary with your particular protein powder.
Enjoy!
