🍫 Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato (about 1 medium sweet potato, roasted or steamed)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut/seed butter you love)
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Sweeteners & Add-Ins

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Optional Toppings

  • Dark chocolate chips
  • Crushed nuts (walnuts or pecans)
  • Flaky sea salt

👩‍🍳 How to Make Sweet Potato Brownie Bites

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Mash and Mix

  • Peel and mash a cooked sweet potato until smooth, then measure out 1 cup.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until creamy and well blended.

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

  • Sift in the cocoa powder and baking powder.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a thick, chocolatey batter forms.

Step 4: Fill and Top

  • Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  • Sprinkle with your choice of toppings—dark chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or a pinch of flaky sea salt.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

  • Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18–20 minutes.
  • To check doneness, insert a toothpick—it should come out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.

Step 6: Cool and Enjoy

  • Let the brownie bites cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy warm for gooey decadence or chilled for a denser texture.

💡 Tips & Tricks

  • Prep ahead: Roast or steam your sweet potato in advance to speed up prep time.
  • Go nut-free: Use sunflower seed butter for an allergen-friendly version.
  • Keep it fudgy: Don’t overbake—these bites should be moist and tender.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer.

✨ Variations

  • Double chocolate: Stir in mini chocolate chips for extra richness.
  • Spiced twist: Add 1/4 tsp cinnamon or cayenne for a unique flavor kick.
  • Protein-packed: Mix in a scoop of your favorite chocolate protein powder (adjust with almond milk for consistency).
