If you're looking for something that is full of protein but also satiates your sweet tooth, try this easy 3 ingredient microwaved protein cake! It can be made in under 5 minutes and you will have something that is healthy and easy enough to eat to slightly curve your craving. I only say slightly, because if you're use to eating really sweet desserts, you won't find this as sweet, but if you're trying to eat healthy, give it a shot!
All you need are the following ingredients:
1 Egg
2 TBS Milk
1 Scoop of Protein Powder
You can choose any kind of milk and any flavor of protein powder for this. I used whole milk and chocolate protein. You mix all ingredients together in an oiled coffee mug or bowl, and bake in the microwave for somewhere between 20-50 seconds, depending on your microwave. You can do 20 second increments until the cake is cooked to your liking. Once the cake is ready, you will want to eat it almost right away, because, as it sits, the cake becomes hard. I found mine tastes pretty good with a dollop of peanut butter, or a drizzle of honey, or a dash of cinnamon. You can experiment to find what you like most, and enjoy this special treat without the guilt of a dense caloried piece of cake!
