By Courtney Pruce
Ingredients
- 2 Scoops of Muscle Food Chocolate Milk Whey 80 protein powder
- 1 egg
- 30g Muscle Food Liquid Egg Whites
- 40g nut butter
- 175g boiled and mashed sweet potato
- 50g Fage 0% Greek yoghurt
- 2 tbsp. MF coconut flour
- 2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably dark)
- 40g dark chocolate chips (or you can chop up a dark chocolate bar)
- 60g hazelnuts
- 2 tbsp. of stevia
- 50g melted dark chocolate
- 1 tbsp. coconut oil (for greasing)
Method:
- Pre heat your oven to 175 degrees Celsius.
- Using a knife or a food processor, chop your 40g hazelnuts for the brownie into small pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients first; boiled mashed sweet potato, greek yoghurt, stevia (if using liquid form) nut butter and eggs and stir until a smooth consistency is reached.
- Then add the dry ingredients; hazelnuts, coconut flour, stevia (if using dry sweetener) and chocolate chips and stir thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- Grease a square baking tin with your coconut oil covering evenly to avoid the brownies sticking (or you can using baking/parchment paper).
- Pour in the brownie mixture and spread evenly (you want to aim for 9 brownie squares). Place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes (until cooked through but still slightly moist to touch)
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely for around 15 minutes. In the meantime, melt your 50g dark chocolate.
- Once the brownie has cooled, spread the dark chocolate evenly over the brownie using a spatula until its completely covered. Whilst the chocolate topping is still wet, sprinkle over the 20g finely chopped hazelnuts for topping.
- Slice into squares and enjoy!
