Prep 5 min · Cook 2 min

In a large microwave-safe mug, whisk together the protein powder, cocoa powder, oat flour, baking powder, and a small pinch of salt until no large clumps remain.
Add the egg whites, applesauce, almond milk, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the batter is completely smooth and the peanut butter is fully incorporated. Fold in most of the chocolate chips.
Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top. Cook in the microwave on high for 60 seconds. Check the center: the top should look dry and spring back when touched, while remaining slightly moist in the middle. If it is still wet, continue cooking in 10-second intervals. Let the cake rest for 1 minute before eating. Done when top is dry and springs back, 160°F in the thickest part.
