Low Carb Moist Chocolate Cake Recipe (4 Servings)

Ingredients:

1 cup oat bran
1 cup water (and/or low fat milk)
1-2 tablespoons raw cocoa
2-3 tablespoons coconut flakes
1 cup whey protein (chocolate or unflavored)
4 egg whites (or 2 whole eggs)
Vanilla extract
Stevia (or other sweetener)
Baking soda
1-2 chocolate chips or 1/2 chocolate protein bar cut into small pieces
4-5 walnuts

Butternut squash/banana (optional)
Raisins or cranberries (optional)
Cottage cheese (optional)
Nutmeg (optional)

Directions:

Mix everything in a blender. Pour the mixture into a baking tray greased with a little oil. Add coconut flakes, oats, walnuts, and chocolate chips (or a protein bar cut into pieces) on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Serve it warm or leave it in the fridge to enjoy it later. Either way, it’s simply delicious.

For extra flavor, add raisins, butternut squash cut into pieces, or a banana to the mixture. However, fruits will increase its carb content. Use cottage cheese to obtain a moist texture. To cut calories even further, simply skip the nuts.
