Description

Rich, fudgy brownies made vegan using sweet potato puree for moisture and texture.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sweet potato puree
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the sweet potato puree, melted coconut oil, and sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the cocoa powder, flour, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  4. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips.
  5. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. A toothpick inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached, not wet batter.
  7. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing.

Notes

  • For the best fudgy texture, chill the brownies for at least one hour before cutting.
  • You can substitute almond flour for all-purpose flour for a gluten-free option, but the texture may change slightly.
