60 Seconds Peanut Butter Brownie

Single or small serving recipes using mostly microwave ovens are super simple, quick and delicious. They are so convenient for individuals who live alone or those who are the only ones living low carb or keto in the family. They are also great for portion control or to satisfy any last-minute cravings without worrying about leftovers. Chocolate and peanut butter really goes hand in hand so you can make this for a quick and delicious treat.

1.  For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale

2.  Add all the dry ingredients into a small bowl and mix to combine.

3.  Add all the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.

4.  Add the chocolate chips and mix to combine.

5.  Grease a 5-inch square glass baking dish and line with parchment paper.

6.  I made an extra batch for a cup of 200 g capacity with 4-inch diameter. As this is quite a big portion, I suggest you use a smaller cup so you can get two servings. You can also use ramekins, mugs or any suitable molds that are microwave safe.

7.  Transfer the batter into the baking dish and spread evenly. Spoon the peanut butter onto the top of the batter and make swirls with a wooden skewer or chopstick.

8.  Microwave for 60 seconds or 1 minute. It is done when the top feels soft and spongy. As every microwave is different, you may need to adjust the time. Try adding around 10 to 15 seconds only because if you overcook it, the texture will be dry and cakey.  If you do not have a microwave oven, you can try baking it in a conventional oven at 350F or 180C for about 10 to 15 minutes.

9.  Remove the brownie from the baking dish and slice into 4 servings.
