Trust us - These sweet potato brownies are a must-try for World Baking Day
17 May, 2023 |
Sweet Potato Brownies
In honor of World Baking Day and coming into a cold snap this Winter - nothing sounds better than cozying up on the couch with a warm gooey brownie and a cup of tea. Well, we have the perfect brownie recipe that will keep your taste buds and tummy happy.
Combining the deliciousness of a brownie with one of winter’s most beloved vegetables – sweet potatoes! Bear with us, we know this sounds a bit of the comfort zone as when you think chocolate, you don’t natural think sweet potato. However, these golden beauties are packed full of vitamins and minerals, it really is the consistency that makes it a fabulous addition to your brownie batter. We have seen avocado been substituted into cakes so why not sweet potatoes in brownies!

- ¾ cup mashed cooked sweet potato
- ¼ cup honey
