Zucchini Protein Brownies(flourless)

1.5 cup of almond butter. You can make your own if you want to save a few bucks.

2.25 cup of grated or chopped zucchini. I used a cheese shredder
1/3 cup of raw honey
3 egg whites
1.5 tsp of vanilla
1.5 tsp of baking soda
1.5 tsp of cinnamon
1 tsp of nutmeg
3 scoops chocolate protein powder

350 degrees until the center is how you like it

ive also experimented by adding walnuts and dark chocolate chips
added cocao nibs several times
subbed flax meal for eggs(doubles as a pudding my daughter loves)
pumpkin seeds
i have also cut the amount honey of honey

i find it works really well if you mix everything in the base recipe and use a stick blender, it doesn't look like it will be a brownie but it definitely is one of my favorites
hope you enjoy

    Any idea on serving size and calories?

    If you cut 24 brownies using large baking pan its about 125 calories each... 12 grams fat, 12 grams carbs, 7 grams protein...
    These are using generic ingredients.
    i use less honey and chips and more protein(isopure) and it lowers carbs and fat while raising protein values

    ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
