Sweet Potato Brownies

Looking for a way to satisfy your sweet tooth without all the added sugar and fluff?


You're going to love these Sweet Potato Brownies!


A rich and creamy brownie so delicious, they quickly became a client favorite!


Have you ever tried a "healthy" brownie before and instantly noticed what's missing? Yep, been there, done that. And friend, that's just one reason I'm so passionate about making eating better simple and FUN!


Because you shouldn't have to give up your favorite fun foods in the name of healthier living. And with a few simple level ups, this recipe proves you can enjoy all the fun flavor and reap the nutrient benefits too!




Ingredients

  • 1 C mashed sweet potato

  • 1/2 C creamy natural peanut butter (or sub with nut butter alternative)

  • 2 Tbsp. honey

  • 1 tsp. vanilla

  • 4 Tbsp. cocoa powder

  • 1/2 - 1 tsp. cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Spray an 8x8 pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

  3. Prep your sweet potato for mashing - I find boiling the simplest and quickest method. Simply peel, chop and boil the potato until tender, drain water and mash with hand mixer on high speed until smooth.

  4. Place nut butter in a small bowl to warm on medium high in the microwave (approximately 30 seconds).

  5. Add mashed sweet potato, warmed nut butter, honey, vanilla, cocoa powder and cinnamon to a medium size bowl and blend on low-medium speed with a hand mixer until smooth.

  6. Spread brownie mixture into cake pan and smooth evenly.

  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes (or until toothpick comes out clean).

  8. Cool on a rack for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

Eat and Enjoy!
