Ingredients
1.5 cups Sweet Potato Puree (roasted and mashed)
0.5 cup Almond Butter (creamy)
0.5 cup Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
0.3 cup Maple Syrup (pure grade A)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
0.5 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Line an 8×8 square baking pan with parchment paper.
Whisk the sweet potato puree, almond butter, and maple syrup in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Add the cocoa powder and vanilla extract to the mixture.
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until fully incorporated.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently.
Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for thirty minutes or until the center sets firmly.
Cool the brownies completely on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
Ensure the sweet potato is roasted and mashed until completely smooth for the best texture. You can customize the add-ins by tossing in chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch. Store in the refrigerator to maintain the dense, fudgy structure for longer.
