Flourless Protein Brownies
 

A guilt-free treat that's rich in flavor and packed with protein. To create these delectable brownies, start with the wholesome goodness of sweet potato or canned pumpkin. Add natural almond or peanut butter for a creamy texture and nutty flavor. Crack an egg into the mix for binding and richness, then pour in water or milk to bring the batter together.

For a burst of sweetness, add vanilla extract and granulated monk fruit sweetener. Incorporate cacao or unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla or chocolate protein powder, baking soda, and a shake of salt for that perfect brownie consistency.

Stir in dark chocolate chips for an extra layer of decadence. Bake until set, and you'll have Flourless Protein Brownies that are not only delicious but also a nutritious treat. Enjoy the guilt-free indulgence in every fudgy and protein-packed bite!
