ingredients

01.

Cook one medium-sized to large-sized sweet potato or yam using your preferred method. I wrap my potato in a wet paper towel, place it on a plate, and microwave it for 5 minutes per side, or until it is very soft to the touch.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Add the mashed sweet potato, pure maple syrup, almond butter, and egg to a large mixing bowl and mix well until the wet ingredients are combined.

02.

Transfer the cocoa powder, protein powder, and sea salt to the mixing bowl and mix well until a smooth baster forms. Stir the chocolate chips into the brownie batter.

03.

04.

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. If you’d like, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.

05.

Bake brownies on the center rack of the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the brownies have set up. I do 17 minutes.
