quick single serving chocolate brownie (mug) cake

ingredients:

1 1/2 tbsp cacao (can be substituted with raw baking cocoa)

1 tsp spelt or wholemeal flour

1 scoop protein powder (I used cookies'n'cream flavor) 

2 tbsp lowfat greek yoghurt (or SKYR)

2 tbsp milk (I used unsweetened almond milk) 

1 small egg

2 tsp maple syrup

a pinch of salt

some freshly grated vanilla or vanilla flav drops

some melted coconut oil

optional: grated almonds as topping

directions: 

lightly coat a 1-cup ramekin or a mug with coconut oil. set aside.

in a small bowl, whisk together the cacao, protein powder, flour and salt.

in a separate bowl, combine yoghurt with milk, the egg, maple syrup and vanilla.

now incorporate the dry ingredients and stir well.

pour the batter into the prepared ramekin or mug.

optional: before baking, add the almonds as a topping. 

now you've got two options:

1. bake in a convection oven for about 10-15 mins at approx. 180° celcius.

2. microwave on medium for 2:30 mins. let sit for a few minutes and check if you need to microwave it for another 1-2 minutes!

when removed from the oven or microwave a toothpick should come out clean but the brownie cake should still feel soft and fluffy at a touch.

let sit for at least 3 mins afterwards. 

serve warm and ENJOY!
