Ingredients

Sweet Potato Brownies

  • 1/2 cup cacao powder (unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup sweet potato puree (I used canned)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

*Optional Topping

  • 3 tablespoons softened butter (or, for the dairy free option, substitute with coconut oil and 1/8 tsp of sea salt)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
  • 1 tablespoon cacao powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  2. Grease a brownie pan (preferably an 8-inch square pan) with coconut oil. I use my hands or a paper towel.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine cacao powder, coconut sugar, honey, melted coconut oil, sweet potato puree, vanilla extract, and the two eggs. Mix thoroughly, until mostly smooth.
  4. In a small mixing bowl, combine almond flour, salt, and arrowroot powder.
  5. Mix the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture and stir until very smooth.
  6. Sprinkle the baking soda onto the mixture and mix thoroughly and quickly. Then, pour the batter into the greased pan.
  7. Bake in a fully preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes. Depending on the size of your pan, or your oven, you may need to bake a few extra minutes.

*Optional Topping

  1. Mix together the following until smooth: 3 Tbsp softened butter, 1 Tbsp honey, 1 Tbsp coconut sugar, 1 Tbsp arrowroot, 1 Tbsp cacao powder, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. If dairy free, substitute coconut oil for the butter, but then add 1/8 tsp of sea salt.
  2. Spread the topping onto brownies as soon as they come out of the oven.
  3. Let the brownies cool before cutting and serving!
