Keto Chewy and Gooey Chocolate Brownies
Loaded with protein and organic cacao these gooey brownies are the perfect high-protein snack for when you're on the go, with just over 1g net carbs per brownie, nearly 20g fat, and just over 8 grams of protein.
These brownies are made with Keto-Pro Chocolate flavoured protein powder (although it will also work with our Vanilla and Strawberry protein powders if you fancy something different!) and uses Erythritol as its sweetener. We used agar agar rather than gelatine, as it helps with the gooey texture.
Ingredients for 9 brownies
