MAKE-AHEAD PROTEIN BROWNIES: 100-CALORIE MASON JAR BROWNIES

MAKE-AHEAD PROTEIN BROWNIES: 100-CALORIE MASON JAR BROWNIES
One of my most popular recipes, the one-minute protein brownie, is easy enough with only 3 ingredients. But I want to make it even easier with these make-ahead mason jar brownies. Why take the time to make a 60-second brownie in advance?
Because I totally understand the occasional feeling of not wanting to dirty dishes or do any cooking. These brownies may only call for 3 ingredients and a few minutes of your time, but you may have to open and store a new can of pumpkin or a new tub of protein powder. These may seem like tiny things, but the tiny things are what lead to some of the poor eating choices.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 C (60g) Pumpkin canned
  • 1/2 scoop (15g) Protein Powder vanilla
  • 1 Tbsp (5g) Unsweetened Cocoa
  • 1/2 Tbsp Stevia or Low-Cal Sweetener optional
Instructions
  1. Mix ingredients in a bowl and microwave for 1-1.5 minutes. Depending on the size of your bowl, watch for overflow.
Recipe Notes
If you're not a fan of pumpkin, you can sub unsweetened apple sauce or even go half and half with apple sauce and pumpkin to reduce the pumpkin flavor.
