These chocolate sweet potato brownies contain coconut flour but not nuts so they could be great for kids’ school lunchboxes and parties. Perfect as a treat for birthdays, Christmas, Thanksgiving or Easter, these brownies are paleo, gluten-free and dairy-free.
Preheat the oven to 185° C (365° F), making sure the oven is hot before you put the brownies in. Line a baking tray with lightly greased baking paper. I used a 9 x 23-cm square tin.
Combine the grated sweet potato, eggs, vanilla, honey and coconut oil in a large mixing bowl and stir together until well incorporated. Then, add the cacao powder, baking powder and baking soda and combine. Stir in the coconut flour last.
Once combined, pour the mixture into a baking tray and pop in the oven. Cook for 25-30 minutes.
Remove the tin and cool for 5-10 minutes before carefully removing the brownie cake from the tin. Cut into squares and dust with a little extra cacao powder or melt some dark chocolate in a bowl over boiling water or in a microwave and drizzle it over the top.
Serve with raspberries or strawberries and maybe some fresh cream or coconut yoghurt.
