🍫 Peanut Butter Protein Swirl Brownies

Unlike traditional brownies loaded with butter and refined flour, this recipe replaces the base with fiber-rich garbanzo beans, giving the brownies a fudgy texture while keeping them gluten-free and high in protein.

💪 Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• Protein-packed – Each brownie provides about 12g of protein to support muscle recovery.
• Refined-sugar light – Sweetened with just a touch of coconut sugar and honey.
• Meal-prep friendly – These store perfectly in an airtight container, making them ideal for post-workout snacks or weekday treats.
• Kid-approved – Even the little ones won’t taste the garbanzo beans!

👩‍🍳 How It’s Made

You’ll start by blending together the brownie base ingredients until smooth and creamy. Then, melt your dark chocolate and fold it in for that decadent, fudgy finish 🍫.
Once the batter is spread into your pan, mix up the Greek yogurt peanut butter topping, swirl it through the batter, and bake until just set.

⏱️ Pro Tips for the Best Brownies

• Don’t overbake! Slightly underbaking keeps the center moist and fudgy.
• For deeper peanut butter flavor, use natural peanut butter (just peanuts + salt).
• Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for an extra flavor boost.
• Let them cool completely before slicing for clean, picture-perfect pieces.
