Sweet Potato Brownies (no gluten)

  • 1 sweet potato
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil 
  • 1/3 cup raw honey 
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons coconut flour 
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 
  • 1/2 cup mini dark chocolate chips 
Bake the sweet potato.  I bake mine at 350 for around 1 hour.

Peel and mash the sweet potato and mix in the 3 eggs, melted coconut oil, honey and vanilla.  Whisk it a little to get a smooth consistency.

Mix the coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and cinnamon in a small bowl.  Gradually whisk into the wet mixture and fold in chocolate chips.

I decided to make mini muffins / muffins out of mine.

Bake at 350 for 22-25 minutes for a 1/3 filled muffin (regular size) or 15+ minutes for a mini muffin.  Alternately you can bake these in an 8 x 8" pan for about 30 minutes.
