Three-ingredient peanut butter brownies
If prices have you down and you're craving a yummy treat that doesn't require a ton of ingredients, look no further! Today, I thought I would share a delightful three-ingredient dessert recipe with you guys. Yup, you read that right. There are only three ingredients in this peanut butter brownie recipe, and the brownies are absolutely delicious.
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups of peanut butter; you can use smooth or crunchy peanut butter (I prefer using Peter Pan honey peanut butter for this recipe, but use the brand that you prefer).
1 cup of granulated Splenda, granulated monk fruit, or granulated white sugar
Instructions:
In a medium-sized bowl, add 4 eggs and whisk them thoroughly. Then add 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter. Mix the two ingredients together well. Then add 1 cup of granulated Splenda, granulated monk fruit, or granulated white sugar and blend well.
Grease a square cake pan with butter. Now pour the peanut butter mixture into the pan.
Transfer the pan to a 350-degree oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until your brownies are set.
Allow the brownies to cool, then cut them into squares.
Serve and enjoy!
Note:
If you'd like to kick the recipe up a notch, you can add a handful of chocolate chips.
Top with chocolate icing, or sprinkle powdered sugar over your brownies, if you desire.
If you're in the mood for chocolate brownies, you can use one and a half cups of Nutella and leave the peanut butter out. However, I'd like to note that peanut butter is the healthier option. I say this because peanut butter is known to contain a lower amount of sugar and is much higher in protein.
You can swirl a couple of tablespoons of chocolate spread into your brownie batter before baking to create chocolate-marbled brownies.
