Sweet Potato and Chocolate Brownies Recipe Type : Dessert Author: Sneaky Veg An unusual twist on a classic treat – thank you Sneaky Veg for sharing this with us. There’s a very nice selection of veggie recipes on Mandy’s blog: http://www.sneakyveg.com/ Ingredients 700g sweet potato 14 dates, chopped 1 tbsp hot water 50g ground almonds 80g plain flour 3 tbsp cocoa powder 3 tbsp golden syrup Instructions Peel and chop the sweet potato, then steam for about 20 minutes until soft. Grease and base line a smallish baking dish. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Put the dates in a bowl and add the hot water. Mash them together until the dates resemble a paste. Add the sweet potato and mash together. Alternatively put them all in a food processor and whizz up together. Put the remaining ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. Add the sweet potato mixture and stir together. Bake in the oven until you can insert a skewer in the centre and it comes out clean (about 40 minutes). Leave for 10 minutes in the tin – to allow it to stick together – then remove and cut into squares. 3.2.2885
