Two Protein Brownie Muffin Recipes

Since my sister and I have the BIGGEST sweet tooth ever, were constantly looking low calorie and protein recipes. However, most protein recipes are too dry or high sugar to substitute for taste. I found two brownie muffin recipes that are delicious and are less than 150 calories.

Protein Red Velvet Brownie Muffin This amazing recipe is from Ripped Recipes

• 2 scoops (70g) of chocolate, vanilla or red velvet whey protein
• 1/2 cup (40g) of unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 Tbsp (16g) of sugar free & fat free chocolate pudding mix
• 3 Tbsp of sweetener
• 1/2 cup (113g) of plain non-fat Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup (120g) of pumpkin puree
• 3 Tbsp (46g) of liquid egg whites
• 1/2 cup almond milk

Frosting:

• 150g of Greek yogurt
• 90g of fat free cream cheese
• 1 tsp of vanilla extract (I added more)
• sweetener

Directions: Preheat oven for 150F degree. Begin mixing dry ingredients in a bowl before adding the liquids. Next spray cooking oil to baking pan or muffin tin and add batter. Bake the brownies for 18-20 minutes. Then allow them cool off in the fridge before adding the frosting. A tip for frosting,  once mixed, let it sit in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to thicken.
