Hey everybody!
Lately i've been trying and perfectioning this recipe of a microwavable brownie that's easy, low in calories and also another one a little bit higher in calories but higher in protein!
So, for the first recipe i used these ingredients (you can use only half of the recipe if you want)
30 grams HErshey's unsweetened cocoa powder
122 grams Natural applesauce
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp Splenda
Nutrition:
Calories: 122
Carbs: 34
Fat: 4
Protein: 3
Fiber: 14
Directions: Mix dry ingredients in a medium-large bowl so you have enough space to mix everything, add applesauce and mix until well combined.
Grease with spray a ramekin or microwave safe bowl (the one i use is 6 oz. capacity and it fits perfectly) and microwave on high in lapses of 40 seconds to 1 minute until the center is set (it takes like 4-5 minutes in my microwave).
Let cool in the ramekin then flip and it will easily come out, and that's it! a rich, satisfying and delicious brownie is ready to be served.
Wether if you wanna eat it alone or topped with some ice cream and other toppings like i do!
Now for the high protein recipe i used these ingredients:
30 grams Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder
1 container (150grams) Dannon 80 calories 2x protein greek yogurt
1 scoop (7 grams) Dr. Frank whey protein powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp Splenda
Nutrition:
Calories: 165
Carbs: 28
Fat: 3
Protein: 23
Fiber: 12
Directions: Same as the other normal one
Note: A difference i've noticed between both recipes was that the high protein one has a more moist texture than the one made with applesauce, i don`t know why but the applesauce one is a bit more dense and chewy, the high protein one was more moist but both are very rich and flavorful and will satisfy those late night cravings!

You can still substitute for another sweetener, maybe Truvia or maple syrup but calories may increase of course0 -
Am going to try this for sure.
It looks delish.
I;m going to try and replaced a tablespoon full of the apple sauce with crunchy peanut butter [PB2]
Let you know how it turns out
Thanks again

I'm definitely going to try them both! Thanks for the recipes.0

That looks much tastier than the one I attempted to make the other day with soya protein powder, splenda and an egg.
It looked and tasted like vaguely chocolatey scrambled egg :noway:0 -

Great idea! Please let me know when u try it!
And im glad u all liked it! Ive tried many mug cake recipes and this has been the best so far
You can also try adding a piece of dark chocolate or caramel in the center of the brownie in the last minutes of cooking and then u got a type of molten lava cake!0 -
Bump. Sounds good0

Maybe substituting it with a TBSP of powdered peanut butter or 2 but the calories will add up0 -
