Ingredients:

For the Brownie Base:

• 1 large sweet potato (approximately 1 cup when cooked and mashed)
• ½ cup almond butter (or any nut butter)
• ½ cup maple syrup
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• ½ cup all-purpose flour (or oat flour for gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup vegan chocolate chips

Optional Flavor Enhancers:

• Cheesy garlic butter corn might sound odd, but creativity knows no bounds!
• Chopped nuts
• Coconut flakes
• Cinnamon
• Espresso powder

Directions:

1. Begin your sweet potato brownie adventure by preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C). Preparation is key to dessert perfection.
2. Prepare the baking pan by lining an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper. Leave some overhang for easy removal later.
3. Cook the sweet potato using your preferred method. You can microwave or bake until completely soft and tender.
4. Once cooked, carefully scoop out the sweet potato flesh. Measure exactly one cup and mash thoroughly until smooth.
5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, and maple syrup. Whisk until the mixture becomes completely smooth and well-blended.
6. Add the dry ingredients: cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix gently until just combined.
7. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
8. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
