Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
- Wash the sweet potato, pierce the skin with a fork, and microwave it for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes soft. Alternatively, you can bake the sweet potato in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
- Once the sweet potato is cooked, let it cool slightly, then peel off the skin and mash the flesh with a fork or potato masher. Measure out 1 cup of mashed sweet potato for the brownie recipe.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder, almond flour, eggs, vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well combined and smooth.
- Fold in the dark chocolate chips into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the baking dish before cutting into squares.
- Serve and enjoy!
