Ingredients
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp almond flour (or oat flour)
1 tbsp sweetener (stevia, monk fruit, or honey)
2 tbsp milk (or non-dairy alternative)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional: 1 tbsp chocolate chips for extra indulgence
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: Combine all ingredients in a microwave-safe mug or bowl. Stir until smooth and well combined. Fold in chocolate chips if desired.
- Microwave: Microwave on high for 1–2 minutes. Start checking at the 1-minute mark to avoid overcooking. The brownie is ready when it has risen and is set in the center.
- Cool and Serve: Let it cool for 1–2 minutes. Serve as is, or top with Greek yogurt, peanut butter, or extra chocolate chips for added flavor.
Notes
To make it keto-friendly, use almond flour and a keto-approved sweetener.
For a vegan option, substitute plant-based protein powder, non-dairy milk, and a vegan sweetener.
This brownie is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day.
