Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, vanilla extract, and stevia sweetener until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently. Pour in the almond milk and mix until the batter is smooth.
Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips to the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs attached.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 8 equal squares. Serve and enjoy your sugar-free protein brownies!
