Who doesn’t love a brownie?? Who doesn’t love dessert for breakfast? No one, that’s who! This recipe was adapted from Live Eat Learn. It is sweet but still packed with fiber and protein both of which will help keep your energy balanced and your mood stable throughout the day.

I eat this before my workouts in the morning - fast, easy, can eat while walking, and gives me enough energy to work out and not feel overly full. It also freezes well so you can batch bake. I like to mix it up and sometimes swap out chickpeas for black beans - similar taste and texture but more variety for that healthy microbiome!
