INGREDIENTS
1 oz Dark Chocolate (divided for batter and center)
1/4 cup Almond Flour
1/2 cup Egg Whites
1 scoop Whey Protein Isolate
1/4 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small ramekin or oven-safe mug.
Melt half of the dark chocolate (approximately 0.5 oz) either in a microwave in 20-second bursts or over a double boiler until smooth. Set aside for the lava center.
In a bowl, whisk together the almond flour, whey protein isolate, and salt.
Add the egg whites, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined into a smooth batter.
Fold in the remaining chopped dark chocolate pieces (from the remaining 0.5 oz) into the batter.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared ramekin. Drizzle the melted dark chocolate into the center, then gently cover with the rest of the batter, trying not to disturb the center too much.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft. Do not overbake to maintain the lava effect.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before enjoying your high-protein, indulgent dark chocolate lava cake.
