When it comes to making a healthy dessert, most options tend to disappoint, as the expert herself admits: “they often come out dry, bland or feel like a shoe rubber.” Yet all is not lost, and if you’re just stepping into the world of fitness, you should know that you can still enjoy those sweet indulgences that people love without giving up on healthy eating. The dietitian, Lara Ibarra, has revealed an express recipe that lets you whip up a brownie that is juicy, appealing, and packed with 25 grams of protein in just 3 minutes.
The star ingredient for providing sweetness and moisture without adding saturated fats is half a Golden apple. Unlike the banana, which leaves a pronounced flavor, the apple adds moisture without imparting a strong taste to the mixture; a perfect solution for those who don’t like bananas or who were starting to tire of seeing them in every healthy recipe.
The master trick: measuring to the millimeter and the microwave power
The real secret to making this cake rise well and come out truly delicious lies in precision and temperature control. As the expert explains, the microwave “fit” desserts are often a flop because the batter dehydrates all at once, which ends up drying out the dessert and making it inedible in many cases. To avoid this, Lara Ibarra stresses that you should not improvise with amounts or cooking.
Measure each ingredient to the exact gram to ensure the correct moisture balance. In addition, the key is not to cook it all at once at maximum power: combine segments at a medium-high intensity and finish with the last seconds at full power, which allows the batter to rise smoothly and keep that juicy center, so the brownie remains perfectly juicy even after a few hours have passed.
