Indulge in these incredibly fudgy and decadent sweet potato brownies. Packed with wholesome ingredients, they’re a delicious way to satisfy your chocolate cravings with a healthy twist.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato (about 1 medium sweet potato)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8×8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. If using, gently fold in the dark chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  8. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use a very ripe sweet potato.
  • Ensure your sweet potato is mashed very smoothly to avoid lumps in the brownies.
  • You can substitute other nut flours like cashew or oat flour if desired.
  • For an extra fudgy texture, you can slightly underbake the brownies.
