Instructions

1

Prepare the Batter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8 by 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, and eggs until completely smooth and well combined.

2

Add the Chocolate

Sift cocoa powder into the wet mixture and fold it in gently until no dry streaks remain. Fold in dark chocolate chips, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top for a beautiful finish.

3

Bake the Brownies

Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle reserved chocolate chips on top. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.

4

Cool Before Cutting

Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan for at least 20 minutes before lifting out and slicing. Cutting too early will cause them to fall apart since they firm up significantly as they cool.

Substitutions

almond butterpeanut butter or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version
maple syruphoney for a non-vegan alternative

Common mistakes

Cutting the brownies while they are still warm which causes them to crumble apart completely
Using watery sweet potato mash that has not been drained which makes the batter too loose to set properly
