Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cooked and mashed sweet potato
- 1 cup Almond butter (unsweetened and creamy)
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.5 cup Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 0.33 cup Gluten-free oat flour
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional, dairy-free if needed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well-incorporated.
Add the cocoa powder, gluten-free oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly until a thick batter forms.
If using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before slicing into 9 squares.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
