Let's Get Baking

Makes 10 Brownies

 

You Will Need 

2 medium to large sweet potatoes (600g)

2/3 of a cup of ground almonds (80g)

1/2 a cup of buckwheat or brown rice flour (100g)

14 medjool dates

4 tablespoons of raw cacao

3 tablespoons of pure maple syrup

a pinch of salt

 

Start by pre-heating the oven to 155F (180C), then peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into chunks and place into a steamer for about  twenty minutes, 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 – this will form one of the sweetest, creamiest, most delicious mixes ever!

 

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 minutes, until you can pierce the brownie cake with a fork bringing it out dry. Remove the tray and allow it to cool for about ten minutes – this is really important as it needs this time to stick together! Remove the brownies from the tray, leaving it another few minutes before cutting them into squares – then dig in and enjoy!
