Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
If using, gently fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey touch.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (crumbs are fine, but no wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 9 squares.
Serve as is, or enjoy with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream for an indulgent treat. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
