Equipment

  • 1 20x20cm (8x8") baking pan My pan is tapered, at the bottom, it is really 6½x6½" (16½x16½), so a smaller baking pan will work too. I've linked it.

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Sweet Potato Puree
  • ½ cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Tahini heaping, see ingredient notes in the above article
  • 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract

Dry Ingredients

  • cup Sorghum flour see ingredient notes in the above article
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ cup Cocao powder 100% cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Cut the orange sweet potato into large chunks and either boil them in water or steam them until soft.
    Once they are cooked through (remove them from the water if they were boiled), place them into a colander and let them cool down until they can be handled.
    Remove the skin and mash them with a fork or puree them in a food processor. Do not leave any lumps. Set the sweet potato puree aside.
    1 cup Sweet Potato Puree
  • In a large mixing bowl combine all the dry ingredients.
    ⅓ cup Sorghum flour, ¼ teaspoon Salt, ½ teaspoon Baking powder, ½ cup Cocao powder
  • Add in all wet ingredients and fold together until a sticky batter comes together.
    ½ cup Maple Syrup, 2 tablespoons Tahini, 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • Line a 8x8" (20x20cm) baking pan with parchment paper (see equipment notes). Place batter into the lined pan and spread out evenly using the back of a slightly wet spoon or spatula.
    Bake in a preheated 180C (356F) oven for 30 minutes. Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into pieces to enjoy.
