Notes
- If you’re using a straight pea protein powder or a fermented protein powder, you’ll need to add 1-2 tablespoons more of dairy-free milk to the vegan mug brownie as it absorbs so much liquid.
- Try to use a short mug or a ramekin, this helps the mug brownie cook better.
- You need to love your protein powder for the recipe as that affects the flavor. If your protein powder isn’t overly sweet you’ll want to add a bit more maple syrup.
- The mug brownie batter is a bit dense, shape it into the mug you’re using so that it looks more even after it’s cooked.
- Let the brownie cool for a solid 30-60 seconds after microwaving. This is so that the flavors settle together and the texture becomes perfect.
- The mug brownie tastes best freshly made. Leftovers will become crunchy and hard in the fridge.
