Ingredients
25g rolled oats (gluten free if required) 50g unsweetened cocoa powder 55g whey chocolate protein powder 120ml unsweetened applesauce 1 egg 1 tbsp honey 1 tsp vanilla extract 160ml almond milk, unsweetened 45g chocolate chips, plus 2 tbsp for topping 65g raspberries, broken up into large piecesDirections
Firstly, preheat the oven to 177°C/350°F/Gas 4. Spray 8x8 inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place oats in a blender and blend for one minute or until they resemble the consistency of flour. Transfer oat flour to a medium bowl then whisk in cocoa powder and protein powder, set aside. Whisk together applesauce, egg, honey, vanilla and almond milk until smooth and well combined. Add to dry ingredients and mix together until just combined. Next, heat coconut oil and the chocolate chips (save 2 tbsp) in a small saucepan over very low heat. Stir continuously until all chocolate chips and coconut oil have melted together. (You can also heat them in a microwave safe bowl for 30-45 seconds.) Gently stir into brownie batter. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tbsp of chocolate chips and raspberries on top and bake for 18-22 minutes or until just cooked through and the top has set. Transfer pan to wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, cut into 12 bars. The bars should be kept covered in the refrigerator and enjoyed cold!Nutritional Information

The HMN24 Core Range: A Circadian-Aligned Performance System
The HMN24 Core Range supports the body’s natural circadian rhythm to enhance cognitive clarity, sustained focus, emotional regulation, and sleep quality. Rather than stimulating or sedating, the formulations reinforce the neurochemical patterns that govern human performance across the day. This is performance that is sustainable, not fragile, rooted in biological intelligence, pharmacokinetics, and sleep-wake neurobiology.
The Rise of Outcome-Based Hospitality: From Comfort to Human Performance
The hospitality industry is entering a new era, one where the value of a stay is defined not by comfort or amenities, but by measurable improvements in how guests feel and function. Wellness experience data is enabling hotels to personalise recovery, optimise environments, and create stays that genuinely restore human performance.
