Why You Should Add Protein

Protein helps your body repair muscles. It keeps you satisfied for a long time. After exercise, protein helps fix the muscles you have built. The fiber in these treats also keeps the gut well. Now, here is the recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup Chocolate Protein Mix
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey)
• 2 large eggs

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch pan or use parchment paper.
