The Best D@$n Brownie Recipe

Want a super quick and easy brownie recipe that uses what you probably have in your pantry?

 

Want a recipe that is super chocolaty and fudgy?

 

None of this cakey brownie business.  Bleck!

 

It has sweet potato in it, but don’t let that scare you off.  This recipe is perfect for after the holidays when you  might have some extra sweet potatoes left over

 

Here ya go…..

 

Oh, BTW….it’s totally kid approved.  They won’t even know there are sweet potatoes in it.

 

Sweet Potato Brownies (adapted from OMGPaleo)

  • 2 cups sweet potatoes cooked, mashed, and cooled (make sure there are no chunks.  Especially, if you are trying to hide some veggies from kids 😉 )
  • 3 eggs whisked
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/3 cup honey,coconut palm or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips (honestly, I don’t measure this, I just pour it in and take a few bites as I go because the batter is the best part.  Am I right, or am I right?)
  1. Take the peel off the sweet potato (I like to put some salt on it and eat it. No use throwing it out).
  2. Add to the mashed sweet potato, eggs, coconut oil, honey and vanilla. Mix together.
  3. Then add dry ingredients: baking soda, cocoa, salt, and chocolate chips.
  4. Mix well and eat some of the dough…because…well….ya know , it’s good.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees. You don’t want the center done.
  6. Allow to fully cool before eating. Trust me, it will be hard, but sooooo worth it.

    This looks amazing being gluten intolerant and trying to eat better they would really help my sweet tooth. I have a couple of questions thought, the instructions say to add coconut flour, in the ingredients list there isn’t a measurement of how much to use. Also, I just want to be sure, the cocoa powder goes in the dry ingredients right? Thanks for a great recipe I will be serving up sweet potatoes to the grands that refuse to eat much of anything other than mac and cheese!

      I am so glad that you found this recipe! It’s a favorite here, and my kids want me to make it EVERY WEEKEND!. It doesn’t last long I can tell you that. Your grandkids will never know that it is there.

      I removed the coconut flour because I forgot it when I made it the other day and I found that it tasted even better! I just forgot to take it out of the directions, so I am glad that you found that error.

      Yes, add the cocoa powder with the dry ingredients. I will make sure that I clarify that.

      Let me know what everyone thinks.
