This gorgeous treat serves two. It’s so simple and easy to make — ready in minutes. Made using our EFECTIV Double Chocolate Whey, each lava cake packs in 18.4g of protein.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 scoop EFECTIV Whey Double Chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tbsp cacao powder
  • 1 tbsp melted coconut oil + more for greasing
  • ¼ cup oats
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp coconut palm sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Fresh raspberries and low fat yogurt to serve

METHOD

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C / gas mark 4.
  2. Grease two small ramekins with coconut oil and set aside.
  3. Blend all ingredients into a smooth batter.
  4. Divide the mixture into the two pre-greased ramekins.
  5. Place in the preheated oven for no more than 5 minutes (you want it to be cooked on the outside but still gooey in the middle).
  6. Serve with a dollop of low fat yogurt and some fresh raspberries and enjoy immediately!
