Steps:
- To make sweet potato purée, halve sweet potato and brush the cut sides with oil (optional). Add to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375 F (190 C) for ~25-30 minutes or until tender to the touch. Move to one side of pan and wrap the parchment paper over top to steam. Let steam for 5 minutes. Then peel away skin and mash in a mixing bowl (or food processor). Set aside.
- Adjust oven temperature to 350 degrees F (176 C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan (or similar-size pan) with parchment paper. Set aside.
- To a large mixing bowl, add sweet potato purée, maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, and avocado oil and stir to combine.
- Add cacao powder, sea salt, and baking powder and stir to combine. Then add oat flour and stir until a thick, scoopable batter is achieved (see photo).
- Transfer batter to your parchment-lined baking dish and spread into an even layer using a spoon or rubber spatula. Then top with pecans and chocolate chips (optional).
- Bake on the center rack (at 350 F / 176 C) for 28-32 minutes. The brownie edges should appear slightly dry and a toothpick inserted into the center should come out mostly clean (a few crumbs are okay, but it shouldn't be overly gooey). Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 30 minutes - 1 hour.
- Lift out of pan and slice. Enjoy warm or room temperature. Store leftovers covered at room temperature up to 3 days, in the refrigerator up to 5-7 days, or in the freezer up to 1 month. These brownies are delicious on their own but elevated with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream.

SWEET POTATO BROWNIES
Made with melted chocolate chips, eggs, and sugar for the base, it's almost hard to believe there's an entire sweet potato lurking in these extra gooey brownies. For some of us (more than others), getting our little ones to eat nutritious fruits and vegetables can be a herculean task, so we have to get downright creative. When a sweet potato is roasted and allowed to cool slowly, an enzyme in the potato transforms the starches in the flesh into complex sugars, making the sweet potato softer and sweeter. It's these natural syrupy sugars in the flesh of the sweet potato that compliment the brown sugar and enhance the chocolaty-ness of the brownies-not to mention the added moisture (read: gooeyness) that the sweet potato lends to the chocolate squares. If anything, these brownies will make you believe in having a dessert that's exceptionally tasty while also laced with fiber, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Dense, rich, and a little more nutrient conscious than your average brownie, you might not want to go back to regular brownies ever again.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and line a metal 9-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment paper; set aside. In a medium saucepan, melt butter until boiling. Immediately add chocolate chips and remove from heat. Stir once to coat chocolate chips in butter, and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sweet potato, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt. Whisk chocolate and butter mixture until chocolate is fully melted and combined with butter. Add chocolate mixture to sweet potato mixture and whisk to incorporate.
- Sift flour and cocoa into the bowl with the liquid ingredients, and stir until no pockets of dry ingredients remain. Pour into prepared baking dish, level batter with spatula, and bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean and edges have set, about 35 minutes. Allow to cool completely before slicing and dusting with powdered sugar, if desired.

Tips:
- Oats can be a versatile replacement for flour in gluten-free baking, offering both texture and a subtle nutty flavor that complements the sweetness of the sweet potatoes in these brownies.
- Using a blender or food processor ensures a smooth and even batter, eliminating the need for extensive whisking or mixing.
- Since the brownies contain no flour, baking powder, or leavening agents, they have a dense and fudgy texture that is more akin to a brownie cake. This makes them ideal for serving with a scoop of ice cream or as a dessert on their own.
- To create a more cake-like texture, experiment by adding a small amount of baking powder or baking soda to the batter. This will result in a slightly lighter and airier brownie.
- The sweetness level of the brownies can be adjusted to taste by using more or less maple syrup. For a richer, more indulgent flavor, dark chocolate chips can be added to the batter or sprinkled on top before baking.
- While the recipe calls for microwaved sweet potatoes, feel free to roast them in the oven if preferred. Simply pierce the potatoes with a fork and bake at 400°F for about an hour, or until tender when pierced.
Conclusion:
These 3-ingredient sweet potato brownies are a delightful fusion of flavors and textures, offering a healthier alternative to traditional brownie recipes. With their dense, fudgy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and natural sweetness from the sweet potatoes, they are sure to satisfy any chocolate craving. The addition of oats provides a subtle nutty flavor and wholesome texture, making them a wholesome and satisfying treat. Whether served warm or chilled, these brownies are a delicious guilt-free snack or dessert that will please both kids and adults alike.
