Yes You Can Make Flourless Brownies!
I’m guilty as the next person for finding my favorite brownie mix and going to town. Really is there anything better than a chewy and fudgy brownie?
I’m working on a traditional homemade brownie recipe that is easy to make! In the meantime, I wanted to share with you a new recipe I was inspired to bake!
I like to test out a bunch of recipes I see on Instagram! Usually a tweak here and there and I have something that works for me and my family!
This recipe was developed from one I found on Instagram that was a total fake out for my kids! They know me enough by now to know that when I make something, there is a good change I’ve swapped an ingredient.
This time it was sweet potatoes! When they asked me what they were I called them fudgy brownies. And they believed me!
Thanks to Wholistically Hannah for inspiring this recipe!

How to Bake Flourless Sweet Potato Brownies
Once I have all of my ingredients measured and laid out, it’s time to get started!
Here is how I make sweet potato brownies:
- Add the cooked sweet potato to your food processor.
- Mix in cacao or cocoa powder and pulse until incorporated and the powder is no longer powdery.
- Add in the almond butter and raw honey or maple syrup.
- Mix with food processor until well combined.
- Fold in ½ of the chocolate chips. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top.
- Bake for 15-25 minutes in a 350F oven. You will know the brownies are done when you shake the pan and they don’t jiggle. Be sure not to overcook them and keep an eye on them after 15 minutes to ensure they are super fudgy and not dry.
- Feel free to drizzle on extra almond butter or top with a pinch of sea salt for added flavor.
- Let the brownies cool completely before you attempt to cut them.
