Healthy Flourless Brownies

Ingredients:

• 3/4 C pumpkin puree
• 1/2 cup nut butter (I used peanut butter, but any kind works)
• 1 egg
• 5 Tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa powder
• 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
• 6 Tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
2. Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips in a blender or food processor.  Blend until smooth (about 30 seconds).
3. Using a spoon or spatula, fold in chocolate chips.
4. Pour batter into a greased 8×8 inch pan.  Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
5. Let cool before serving.
