Ingredients
  

For the brownie batter:

  • 1 cup sweet potato mashed
  • 2/3 cup oat flour* or regular all purpose flour if not gluten free.
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup tahini can substitute peanut butter or a different nut or seed butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Toppings:

  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (to swirl), optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix all of the brownie ingredients together to form a smooth batter. Transfer into the baking dish.
  • Using a teaspoon, place dollops of peanut butter over the batter. Use a toothpick or butter knife to swirl the peanut butter in. Sprinkle brownies with chocolate chips.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until firm. Let the brownies cool before slicing. They will be too tender to slice immediately out of the oven.
