Hey there, how’s it going?
Today’s vegan dessert recipe is going to be a little different because this isn’t my recipe and I can’t remember exactly where I found it because I did a screen grab of the ingredients and instructions and the video I saw was stitched from a non-vegan food creator.
Is that convoluted enough for you on this Monday?
Ha! Seriously though, have I ever told you that brownies are (or maybe they used to be?) my absolute favorite dessert on the planet? I used to make them a lot. Regularly. Frequently.
And then I was like “oh shit I’m fat” and then I kind of back off, only making them once or twice a year. And then this vegan sweet potato brownie recipe came into my life. And it is…amazing.
It’s fudgy like a full on calorie bomb of a brownie, but not quite as caloric. It’s so good and if you like chocolate desserts I think you’ll like this one.
Why You’ll Like This Recipe
It’s easy. If you’re not a big fan of baking, this is a one bowl recipe that’s easy to make. If you’re not a competent baker, this one isn’t fussy and there’s a lot of room to come out with a good dessert even if you don’t get the measurements exact.
There’s cocoa powder in it, which means you don’t have to melt and then cool chocolate, which is a requirement for some of the best brownie recipes, at least in my opinion.
You’ll get an extra hit of protein with the sweet potato, peanut butter and vegan yogurt, if that’s your thing. If not, well you get it anyway.
What’s In It?
The ingredients in this vegan brownie recipe are simple: sweet potato (baked or boiled), vegan yogurt, maple syrup (or agave or sugar), cocoa powder, baking powder, dark chocolate chips and peanut butter.
How To Make Sweet Potato Brownies
Add everything to the bowl, wet first and then dry, and mix well. Reserve a handful of chocolate chips to put on top and then bake in the oven on 190c/375F for 20 to 25 minutes. It’s going to be soft but let it set and I promise you won’t regret it.
And that’s it.
Super easy, right?
I loved them, like a lot. And I can’t wait to hear if you loved them too!
