I wanted to find a healthy and delicious brownie recipe that would be low in sugar and high in nutrition, and I also wanted to find a recipe that had as many whole foods as possible. After experimenting, I came up with these brownies, which were a big hit! I hope you like them as much as I do!

The health benefits of sweet potatoes include lowering cholesterol, reducing blood pressure, and improving digestion.

This recipe uses cacao powder, a rich source of antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation and improve overall health. It also has other minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron, which are all good for the heart and nervous system.
Did you know that the antioxidant content of dark chocolate is comparable to that of blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries? It also contains several flavanols, natural compounds that promote heart health by reducing inflammation and improving blood flow.
Cacao also contains more magnesium than spinach! Magnesium regulates blood sugar levels and muscle function and promotes bone and cardiovascular health.

Chocolate Sweet Potato Brownie Recipe
- 2 medium to large sweet potatoes (600g)
- 2/3 of a cup of ground almonds (80g)
- 1/2 a cup of spelt flour (100g)
- 14 medjool dates, soaked in boiled water to soften them, then drain
- 4 tablespoons of raw cacao
- 3 tablespoons of pure maple syrup or alternative, omit for less sweetness
- Pinch of salt
- Start by pre-heating the oven to 180C.
- Peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into chunks and place into a steamer for about twenty minutes, or until they become really soft.
- Once they are perfectly soft and beginning to fall apart remove them and add them to a food processor with the pitted dates.
- Put the remaining ingredients into a bowl, before mixing in the sweet potato date combination. Stir well.
- Place into a lined baking dish and cook for about twenty five minutes, test by piercing the brownie cake and it's ready with a fork coming out dry.
- Remove the tray and allow it to cool for about ten minutes, don't skip as this helps bind the brownie.
- Remove the brownie cake from the tray, leaving it another few minutes before cutting them into your brownie squares.
