Published 1/9/2024 • Updated 8/6/2024 I don’t know about you, but when we have a brownie, we want the brownie to be fudgy, moist, and still warm when we eat it. These flourless peanut butter protein brownies use cocoa powder and protein powder in place of flour and have pockets of fudgy melted chocolate in every bite.
What is in protein brownies?
Make sure to scroll all the way down to the recipe card to get the full ingredient list and written recipe. These flourless peanut butter protein brownies get their added protein from protein powder and peanut butter. Each brownie has 12g of added protein per brownie. The high protein ingredients are accompanied by classic brownie ingredients like brown sugar, eggs, chocolate chips, and baking powder.
Substitues & Variations
The bake time may vary depending on the oven, what pan is used, and whether or not you are baking at altitude. If you know one side of your oven bakes hotter than the other, turn the baking pan in the oven halfway through the baking time. Feel free to add other delicious brownie mix-ins. We highly recommend serving these brownies warm with a scoop of ice cream or protein ice cream.
Storage
Let these brownies cool completely before slicing them into squares and storing them in an air-tight container for 3-5 days. If you don’t let the brownies cool before storing them, they will become moist.
