We have a lot of ladies in our program who are gluten free and/or dairy free. Per coach Virginia’s request last year I added these delicious sweet potato brownies to our Ninja Insider archives. These can be made gluten free and dairy free with Measure For Measure Flour (or whatever gluten free flour you like) and dairy free chocolate chips. We like these Enjoy Life chocolate chips.

Can I add extra protein to these brownies?
You can certainly add some extra protein to these with a few scoops of protein powder if you’d like. I’d recommend only using 2-3 scoops, this way they texture doesn’t become too spongy. Another option is just to pair these brownies with side of protein. Load some extra chicken onto your plate for dinner tonight and save these for dessert.

I hope you love this recipe as much as I do. Tag me on Instagram if you make it! I absolutely love seeing you guys making my recipes and sharing, it means a lot.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup baked sweet potato (203g)
- 1/2 cup almond butter (140g)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder (40g)
- 1 cup brown sugar (140g)
- 1/3 cup all purpose or Measure For Measure Flour

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, cocoa powder, sugar, flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well.
- Fold in the chocolate chips. Pout into your prepared pan and use a spatula to smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the edges look dry and the center of the brownies look cooked.
- Let the brownies cool completely before slicing, or they will be too soft. Cut them into 12 squares and enjoy! Keep them refrigerated for up to a week.
