Ingredients

    or sugar free maple syrup

  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder or cacao powder

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.

  3. In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa/cacao, almond flour, baking powder and salt.

  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.

  5. If using protein powder, fold it through the mixture at this stage.

  6. Pour the mixture into a lined or lightly greased baking tin.

  7. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a skewer or knife inserted into the centre comes out clean.

  8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before storing.
