• Moist and Fudgy: The applesauce keeps these brownies soft and rich.
• Peanut Butter Swirl: The melted peanut butter swirl adds the perfect touch of nutty decadence.
• Easy to Make: Using a boxed brownie mix keeps it simple and foolproof.

Ingredients:

• 2 scoops MS Protella
• 1 box brownie mix
• 1 egg (or as directed on the box)
• 1/3 cup avocado oil (or as directed on the box)
• 1 package applesauce (single-serving size)
• 4 tbsp peanut butter

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Brownie Batter:

   • Follow the instructions on your brownie mix box to prepare the batter, using the egg and avocado oil as directed.

2. Add the Applesauce and Protein:

   • Mix in the applesauce and 2 scoops of MS Protella protein powder until fully combined, ensuring the batter is smooth.

3. Pour the Batter:

   • Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and pour the brownie batter evenly into the pan.

4. Create the Peanut Butter Swirl:

   • Heat the peanut butter in the microwave for about 20 seconds to soften it. Drizzle the melted peanut butter over the brownie batter and use a butter knife to gently swirl it into the top layer.

5. Bake:

   • Bake the brownies at the temperature indicated on the box but reduce the baking time by 10 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick—it should come out with a few moist crumbs.

6. Cool and Enjoy:

   • Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing. Serve and enjoy your protein-packed Turtle Butter Brownies!
