If you've been reading my blog, you'll know I've been dabbling in making healthy sweet treats, these Sweet Potato Brownies are something I've wanted to try since I bought the Deliciously Ella book a few months ago. They looked super yummy in the book and I'm so pleased with how they turned out! Obviously they're not like the real thing, but they're sweet and gooey and delicious! They remind of the Nakd bars if you've tasted them. They're a little bit of a faff but it's definitely worth it and they'll keep for a few days!
Ingredients -
80g ground almonds
100g brown rice flour
14 medjool dates
4 tablespoons of raw cacao
3 tablespoons of pure maple syrup
a pinch of salt
Method -
1. Start by pre-heating the oven to 180 degrees C, then peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into chunks and boil for about twenty minutes, until they become really soft.
2. Once they are perfectly soft and beginning to fall apart remove them and add them to a food processor or blender with the dates.

3. Put the remaining ingredients into a bowl, before mixing in the sweet potato date combination. Stir well.
4. Place into a lined baking tray and cook for about twenty minutes, until you can pierce the brownie cake with a fork bringing it out dry.
5. 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.
