- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1. Prepare Your Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Boil in water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth.
- 2. Mix Wet Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, almond butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir until creamy and well incorporated.
- 3. Add Dry Ingredients
- Sift together cocoa powder and baking powder. Gently fold into the wet mixture until just combined; avoid over-mixing.
- 4. Pour Into Baking Dish
- Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper. Pour the brownie batter into the dish and spread evenly with a spatula.
- 5. Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- 6. Cool and Serve
- Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing into squares. Best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for several days.
