Luv Ya Lava Cakes:

In honor of Valentine’s Day we offer this delicious but healthy, sweet treat! We know that our members who do personal training in Northridge and Encino love to combine that with great, nutritious and delicious recipes, so we aim to please! Enjoy!

Ingredients:

(Makes four cakes)

1/2 cup Old Fashioned Oats, ground into coarse flour

1 cup Whey Chocolate Protein Powder

1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp. Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

1/4 cup EVOO

2 Whole Large Eggs

1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk

1 Tbsp. Splenda Brown Sugar or

2 Tbsp. Light Brown Sugar

Directions:

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees

Lightly spray 4 oven-safe Ramekins with EVOO; set aside on a bakingsheet

Step 1: Make coarse oat flour with your blender. When done, add all ingredients into the blender; blend

until a creamy batter.

Step 2: Pour evenly into the four prepared ramekins. Place filled ramekins back onto the baking sheet and into the center of the pre heated oven.

Step 3: Bake for 4 minutes; or until the top is slightly caked and cracked. The center is intentionally a gooey mess of lava! The longer you cook it the less the center is gooey. Remove from oven and either leave in the ramekin or turn them upside down on a small plate. Top with berries and a dollop of whip if you wish to.
