Low Fat Low Carb Protein Brownies image

I'm on a low fat low carb diet. But I'm a chocoholic! So I searched and I searched, after not finding anything, I played in the kitchen and I came up with something I'm pretty happy with. It's not the best thing in the world, but when you have to have something kind of sweet and you haven't had your soy protein yet, give it a shot--you might like it.

Time 40m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons baking cocoa
2 small apples
4 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4-1/2 cup Splenda granular, to taste
1/2 cup soy protein isolate, that can be used in baking
1/4 cup wheat gluten flour
1/4 cup rye flour (this is just one that I had around, you can use others I'm sure it would work)
1/4 teaspoon mortons low sodium salt
1 cup chopped nuts (I used almonds)

Steps:

  • Core apples (do not peel everyone can use more fiber).
  • Chop the apples up in your food processor into 'minced garlic' sized bits add a bit of water to help the process.
  • Toss the apple bits in a pot or a skillet and heat up just before the juice boils then add the cocoa powder.
  • Mix it all together so the cocoa is all melted and well blended set aside to cool.
  • Mix the flours, soy protein and salt and sift.
  • In a separate bowl beat egg whites vanilla and Splenda until soft peaks appear.
  • Add flour mixture to the egg mixture and blend well then add the apple-cocoa sauce and blend.
  • Mix in the chopped nuts if desired.
  • Bake in a non-stick 8-inch square pan for 20-25 minutes at 350°F.
