The first food post in a while, but I had to talk about these brownies asap. Do not judge them before you try them. They may contain sweet potato but they will taste AMAZING! Trust me.
It’s not often that I find a recipe that I just wanna make over and over again, but this is one I found from the lovely Deliciously Ella is just that…I wanna make them all day everyday. These Brownies really are packed full of goodness, Just the thought of a gooey chocolate brownie that has no sugar makes my mouth water. Who can say no to brownies that taste good and is good for you.
For the Brownies-
12 medjool dates.
500g of sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sized ones).
6 tablespoons of pure maple syrup.
2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil.
100g of ground almonds.
A pinch of salt.
100g of ground oats.
6 tablespoons of raw cacao powder.
Let’s do this:
Step one: Start by pre-heating your oven to 180C then peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into small chunks and boil the for around twenty minutes until they become super soft.
Step two: Once the sweet potatoes are perfectly soft and beginning to fall apart, remove and strain and then add them to a food processor with your pitted dates and blitz until smoooooth! Pop the remaining ingredients into a bowl before mixing in the sweet potato and date combo and mix well!
Step four: Place your mixture into a lined baking tin and cook for around forty five to fifty minutes until you can pierce the brownie with a fork and bring it out dry. Remove the tray and allow it to cool for about ten minutes – this is really important as it needs this time to stick together properly!
Step five: Now for the fun bit….remove the brownies from the tray and leave them to cool completely, cut into squares and….ENJOY!
