The Original Beltsander Brownie

So across the internet there are images of bowls of delicious looking brownie going around. I kept seeing people refer to them as the beltsander brownie…all I had in my head was sanding paper. Totally didn’t get it. Plus I have tried ‘protein brownies’ in the past that weren’t all that great. However, this brownie totally wasn’t like those, just like my bean brownies, it rocked.

The Original Beltsander Brownie recipe:

  • Scoop of protein.
  • 10g Cocoa Powder.
  • Tspn Baking Powder.
  • 60ml Milk.

You mix all the above into a thick paste and then microwave for around 30 seconds.

I went ahead with the above, but me being me I wanted to try and jazz it up. I knew egg whites had worked wonders in recipes like this before, and so I added in 25g.

My Pimped Beltsander Brownie recipe:

  • 25g of MyProtein Total Protein (mixed blend).
  • 10g Cocoa Powder or MyProtein’s Chocolate Smooth Flavouring.
  • Tspn Baking Powder.
  • 60ml Skimmed Milk.
  • 25g Egg Whites.

In my 700W microwave it took 60s, let it cool off a little, plate it, and you got yourself a sweet brownie. If the simplicity wasn’t enough for you, the taste for the calories is insane:
