INGREDIENTS
1 scoop Whey Protein Powder (30g)
1 Large Egg
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1/2 cup grated Zucchini (75g)
1/4 cup Almond Flour (28g)
1 tablespoon Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (5g)
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a small baking dish or loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, sift together the whey protein powder, almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
In another bowl, whisk the egg and then mix in the nonfat Greek yogurt until well combined.
Fold in the grated zucchini into the wet mixture.
Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake light and tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
