Sweet Potato Almond Butter Brownies

The nutty crumb is soft, and sweet potatoes and almond butter are used to create the base of the brownies which contain no flour.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings: 12 brownies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato
  • 3/4 cup almond butter
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease an 8x8 pan.
  2. Stir the sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Mix in the cocoa, baking soda, and salt to form a thick batter.
  4. Fold in most of the chocolate chips and spread into the pan, topping with the rest.

Notes

Natural drippy almond butter works best for a smooth batter.
