I posted this protein brownie recipe on Honey We’re Healthy awhile ago and it’s been such a hit, that I wanted to share it here too. I make these all the time and eat them as snacks and my son loves them too. The consistency is actually more like a cake, but you don’t have to feel guilty about eating this cake. The recipe comes from Jamie Eason and I put in italics how I tweaked it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oat Flour (I ground oats finely in a food processor)
- 2 scoops Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (I used chocolate protein powder)
- ½ tsp Baking Soda
- ¼ tsp Salt
- 3 tbsp Baking Cocoa
- 4 Egg Whites
- ½ cup Splenda (I leave out the sugar and add 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips)
- 8oz Berry flavored Baby Food (I used 8oz applesauce)
- 4oz Water
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix dry ingredients (oat flour, vanilla whey protein, baking soda, salt, baking cocoa) together in a large bowl.
- Mix wet ingredients (egg whites, applesauce, water) together in a medium sized bowl.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix together.
- Spray cooking dish (I used an 8×8 glass pan) with a non stick butter spray or olive oil spray and add batter to dish.
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes

These look amazing! Do you think coconut flour would work okay instead of the oat flour?
These sound absolutely awesome. Gotta try 'em. Thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂

They sound super yummy. I would love to make them, but would hate to tempt our youngest who cannot have chocolate or whey. Thinking I might try tweaking this and see how it turns out.
I see 2 bars=96 calories but what is the serving size for your bars?
I love this recipe! I got all excited when I saw that you were going to be at Home Goods again, but then I realized that it was from the one in April. My friend, who had never been to a Home Goods, is hooked on them since I brought her that morning. Good times!!
