High Protein Edible Brownie Batter
Description
This edible brownie batter mixes vegan protein powder with gluten-free baking flour and cacao powder, creating a base that gently thickens when combined with melted vegan butter, maple syrup, dairy-free yogurt, and vanilla extract. The mixture comes together as a sticky, dense batter that resembles traditional brownie batter in flavor and texture, enriched with cocoa's chocolate notes and sweetness from maple syrup.
Unlike conventional baked brownies, this batter is intended for immediate consumption without cooking, providing a protein-packed option suitable for those avoiding raw eggs or baking. The flavor depends on the protein powder type; vegan protein powder tends to absorb more liquid and produce a thicker mixture. Optional fixings can be added for texture and variation.
This recipe serves about one dip-sized portion or three small servings and pairs well with apples or pretzels as a spread. It is not recommended for refrigeration as it will harden and becomes unpleasant to eat once chilled.
Ingredients
- 3 tbs vegan protein powder
- 1 tbs 1:1 gluten-free baking flour
- 1.5 tbs cacao powder
- 1.5 tbs vegan butter melted
- 2 tbs maple syrup
- 1.5 tbs dairy-free yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the protein powder, baking flour, and cacao powder.
- One by one add in the liquid ingredients and mix until thick and sticky.
- Add in any optional fixings (see blog post).
- Serve immediately as is or with pretzels or apples to spread.
Notes
- The type of vegan protein powder affects batter thickness and flavor; swapping to whey protein results in a less thick batter.
- Ensure vegan butter is melted before mixing to combine evenly.
- Any non-dairy yogurt works except Greek-style, which is too thick for this batter.
- To increase sweetness, add ½ tablespoon cane sugar if desired.
- Consume immediately; do not refrigerate as batter hardens and becomes crusty.
- This quantity makes approximately one small dip serving or three small servings.
