Ingredients for Half Baked Peppermint Protein Brownie for One

This single serve pepperint protein brownie is made with a few simple and healthy ingredients, and has no butter or oil and no sugar either! 

• Chocolate Protein Powder for high protein brownie that’s also sugar free.
  I used ProteinWorld Whey, but the ProteinWorld Slender Blend is another great option. Code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount on both.
  A third alternative would be Quest. You might need to add more milk here.
• Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Cacao Powder
• Coconut Flour
• Egg Whites for extra protein
• Unsweetened Almond Milk
• Baking Powder

And then of course.. Crushed Peppermint Candy Canes

If you need to add more sweetness, Stevia Powder or Zero Calorie Sugar Substitute; I use Lakanto, to keep this raw protein brownie batter recipe sugar free; (code HAYLSKITCHEN for a discount here too)

Tips to make Single Serve Peppermint Protein Powder

This fudgy peppermint protein powder brownie really is an easy one and made in a mug or ramekin, but make sure you do all of this stuff to get is perfect.

• Grease the ramekin! You want the single serve brownie to come off easily.
  Use an oven-safe mug if you need.

• Don’t over-mix the batter!
  Make sure you gently fold the dry mix into the wet to combine them.
  If you over-mix it, protein powder will make your protein brownie tough, dense and gummy.

• Taste the batter and see if you need some extra sweetener. I’d recommend using stevia powder to maintain the consistency of the batter.

• Don’t overbake the brownie. The top will should be just cooked. It might look soft, but will harden when it cools a bit.
  It will continue to cook when out, and you want the proper fudgy brownie center.
