Warm, gooey chocolate lava cakes with a rich peanut butter center and a protein boost. Perfect for a guilt-free dessert!
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease two ramekins with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, egg white, protein powder, cocoa powder, sweetener, and almond milk until smooth.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins.
Drop 1 tablespoon of peanut butter into the center of each ramekin. Gently push it down slightly into the batter.
Sprinkle with chocolate chips, if using.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly gooey. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Carefully invert the lava cakes onto plates if desired, or eat directly from the ramekins.
Nutrition per serving (110g)
For a richer chocolate flavor, add a teaspoon of instant coffee powder to the batter.
If you don't have almond milk, you can substitute with water or another type of milk.
Adjust the amount of sweetener to your liking. Taste the batter before baking to ensure it's sweet enough for you.
Be careful when handling the ramekins after baking as they will be hot.
Baking time is crucial. Undercooked will be too runny, overcooked will lose the lava effect.
