IMG_3738Here’s another of Daz’s favourite recipes from Joe Wicks’ Lean in 15. These brownies tick lots of boxes: they are free from gluten and dairy*, have plenty of vitamins and fibre thanks to the beetroot, and the addition of protein powder means they will stave off the hunger pangs for longer than a regular brownie. What’s more, they are really quick to whip up – you simply bung all the ingredients in the blender and blitz. The end result is a brownie that is surprisingly light and chocolatey.

Takes: 30 minutes

Serves: about 12

Ingredients:

  • 2 cooked and peeled beetroots, roughly chopped
  • 175g ground almonds
  • 120g chestnut puree
  • 30g cocoa powder
  • 45g honey
  • 1 scoop (30g) vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C/fan 160°C/gas mark 4 and line a tin (28cm x 15cm or thereabouts)
  2. Place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth
  3. Tip the batter into the prepared tin and bake for around 18 minutes
  4. Leave to cool for 10 minutes or so before cutting into squares

Enjoy!
