I am so glad you found this recipe for fudgy sweet potato brownies. These are incredibly moist, rich chocolate treats made easily in one bowl. They use natural sweeteners, making them a guilt-free dessert that tastes decadent.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potato (about 1 large sweet potato)
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil or butter
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (for gluten free option)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potato, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. This is the start of your one bowl process.
  3. Add the cocoa powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix the batter.
  4. If you are using chocolate chips, gently fold in half of them now.
  5. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The edges should look set, and 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 on a wire rack before cutting. Cooling helps them set into the fudgiest texture.
  8. Once cool, lift the brownies out using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.

Notes

  • For a paleo sweet potato brownies version, ensure your chocolate chips are dairy-free and paleo-compliant.
  • If you prefer a less sweet treat, reduce the maple syrup to 1/3 cup.
  • These brownies taste even better the next day once the flavors have fully settled.
