Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sweet potato cooked and mashed
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup cashew butter ~ any nut butter is fine. The peanut butter will be a stronger flavor but is really good as well.
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp flour ~ I used oat flour ~Regular all-purpose or almond flours are other options.
  • 2/3 cup sugar ~ I used beet sugar
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chip plus 3 tbsp to sprinkle on top. I used Enjoy Life Allergy-Friendly Semi-Sweet Mini Chocolate Chips.
  • Frosting optional ~ Pillsbury Creamy Supreme vanilla and chocolate flavors are gluten, egg, nut, and dairy-free. These frostings are NOT corn and soy-free.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 and grease or line an 8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  • To make your nut butter easy to stir you can either let it set out for about 30 minutes or carefully warm it up in the microwave. I personally have not used the microwave and the recipe has worked just fine.
  • In a large mixing bowl add softened nut butter, sweet potatoes, and vanilla. Whisk together well.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to sweet potato mixture and stir to combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Smooth batter into the prepared pan gently pushing with a spatula to fill evenly. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips over the top and bake for 35 minutes.
  • Remove brownies from the oven and let them rest until they reach room temperature. The brownies will firm up as they cool.
  • Once the brownies have cooled you can frost them or serve them as they are. These brownies are so incredibly good we usually eat them plain.

Notes

This is a recipe freezer friendly.
Monkfruit Sweetener is a sugar-free zero carb option.
