Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Sweet potatoes (mashed)
  • 0.75 cups Almond flour
  • 0.5 cups Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 0.3 cups Maple syrup
  • 0.5 cups Almond butter (or peanut butter)
  • 0.25 cups Dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and boil or steam the sweet potatoes until soft, then mash with a fork or potato masher until smooth. Measure out 1.5 cups.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well mixed.

Step 4

Add the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until a thick batter forms.

Step 5

Fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a little fudgy is okay).

Step 8

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before removing and slicing into 9 squares.

Step 9

Serve as-is or with your favorite toppings, like a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of melted chocolate. Enjoy!
