Guilt-Free Brownies featuring PlantFusion!
For the chocolate-lovers out there, these brownies are not only the guilt-free treat we all look for but they’re also gluten-free! The fun thing about making brownies is that you can change up the recipe to include some other fun treats; like fruit, nuts, candy, cookies, or even your favorite supplements! In this recipe, we used two PlantFusion supplements for an added health benefit. The Chocolate PlantFusion Complete Protein not only is packed with 21g of plant-based proteins but it keeps you energized while building and repairing muscle (this would be the perfect treat for after your daily workout)! The Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder should be your go-to for building, hydrating, and protecting collagen. BONUS- the Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder is also featured in our Smoothie of the Month for July- our Strawberry-A-Go-Go!
Ingredients
1 Cup Almond Butter (we used our fresh almond butter from our bulk section!)
1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
1 Egg
1 Tablespoon melted butter (you can also use MCT oil or liquid coconut oil)
1 Scoop Chocolate PlantFusion Complete Protein
1 Scoop Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
Pinch of Salt
1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and spray a 9×11-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or olive oil.
2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients together and whisk until smooth.
3. Spread batter into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked around the edges.
