These Fudgy Sweet Potato Brownies (gluten free) are the ideal healthier for you sweet treat that is gluten, grain and dairy free.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup maple syrup honey also works!
- 1 cup cooked + mashed + cooled sweet potato*
- 1 cup almond butter peanut butter, sun butter, cashew butter also works
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup cocoa powder
Optional toppings
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Add all ingredients to a bowl. Mix together until smooth and combined using a spatula.
- Add batter in an even layer to an 8x8 baking dish lined with parchment paper.
- Bake brownies for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- I like to top my brownies with some chocolate chips and flaky salt as soon as they come out of the oven. This way the chocolate melts. Let brownies cool completely for at least an hour to set. Slice and enjoy.
Notes
*I baked mine in the oven for about 50 minutes at 425 degrees the night prior. You can bake the sweet potato several days in advance if desired.
