Description

Chocolaty, tasty and naturally sweetened, these brownie bites are fiber-filled treats!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Cup Oat Flour or Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1/4 cup Vanilla Protein Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 tbsp Ground Flax Seed
  • 1/4 cup Honey
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
  • 1/2 cup Almond Butter
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 cup Dried Cranberries
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350° F
  2. Set a nonstick sheet tray out for baking. Or line a sheet tray with parchment paper or silpat. Set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse 1 cup old fashioned oats until finely ground. Alternatively, if you purchased oat flour, skip this step.
  4. In a large mixing bowl add the oat flour, cocoa powder, protein powder, salt, baking powder and flax seed. Whisk to combine the dry ingredients.
  5. To the dry ingredients add the honey, maple syrup and almond butter. Using a spatula stir the batter together. It will be quite thick!
  6. *Tip, spray your measuring cup with nonstick spray before you measure the honey and it will slide out easily!
  7. Add the dried cranberries and chocolate chips to the batter. Stir to combine.
  8. Using a 1 1/2″ scoop, spoon batter onto sheet tray, leaving about 1″ between each brownie bite. The cookies will not spread very much. Continue until all the batter as been scooped onto your baking trays.
  9. Bake at 350° F for 8-9 minutes. Be sure not to overcook, you want them slightly soft and gooey.
  10. Let the brownie bites cool slightly and enjoy!
