Ingredients

- ½ cup melted unsalted butter
- ⅓ cup brown sugar Truvia
- ¼ cup erythritol or white sugar alternative
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup low carb vanilla protein powder
- ¼ cup almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- pinch sea salt optional
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ¾ cup sugar free chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper.

- Then, add in all remaining ingredients except chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
