HEALTHY 1 MINUTE LOW CARB BROWNIE

A brownie-like chocolate cake in a mug, made without flour, eggs, dairy, or oil. It will completely solve all of your chocolate cravings… in less than 1 minute!

Ever since I posted my original Vegan Mug Cake Recipe –which is one of the biggest reader favorite recipes from this blog—people have been asking me to come up with a low carb or flourless version.
Over the years, I’ve experimented with coconut flour, peanut flour, and almond meal; and finally I’m happy with the results. This chocolate healthy mug cake is everything I’d hoped it would be. You won’t miss the flour one bit!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 egg white OR whole egg *
• 1 scoop chocolate protein powder 32-34 grams
• 1 tbsp chocolate chunks of choice Optional
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1 tbsp coconut flour can substitute for gluten free oat flour
• 1 tbsp granulated sweetener Optional- I used a stevia blend
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup milk of choice **

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lightly grease a small microwave safe cereal bowl or oven safe ramekin with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a small mixing bowl, combine all your dry ingredients and mix well. Add your egg white, milk of choice and chocolate chunks and mix until a thick batter is formed. If the mixture is too thick (it will most likely be), continue to add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until a thick batter remains. 
3. If using a microwave, microwave in 30-second intervals until desired texture is achieved (I usually get the best texture at 55 seconds). If using an oven, bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-15 minutes, or until a skewer comes out 'just clean' from the center.
