Jump to Recipe
This is without a doubt the easiest, most tastiest and diet-friendly brownie recipe you will ever find!
Took me a couple tries to nail it, but even those failed attempts were delicious; That’s how good this is!
What goes in?
All you need for these delicious, soft chocolate fudge brownies is mashed sweet potato, creamy almond butter, eggs, raw cacao powder, baking soda and some stevia sweetener.
And then of course to make them double chocolate and fudgier than ever – chocolate chips!
I used Lily’s stevia-sweetened chocolate chips here, these brownies have no added sugar.
Cacao Powder
I used raw cacao powder for this brownie recipe and not the usual cocoa powder.
Cacao is a super food that has a ton of nutrition benefits, especially high in antioxidants and fiber. Another benefit is the minerals like magnesium, zinc, iron and potassium.
Recommendation? Kiva Cacao. It’s organic, vegan, non-GMO, and just an all-round stellar product.

Cacao vs Cocoa Powder:
The deal with raw cacao is that its made from the raw cacao beans beans, while the cocoa powder is made from beans that have been roasted.
No extra processing and higher in nutritional value too!
By using cacao powder, you get indulgent, healthy chocolate brownies with no processed cocoa.
Super duper fudgy brownies!
These fudgy chocolate brownies are made with no butter and no chocolate – which is why they’re healthy and just the best ever!
Even though they have no chocolate, these brownies are made fudgy with the almond butter (also keeps them Paleo).
So all-in-all sweet potato brownies with egg and almond butter for that fudginess and without flour that would otherwise make it airy.
Trust me, this is definitely the best healthy sweet potato brownie out there; No flour, no sugar, no dates, no butter, no oil. Just decadent chocolate brownies!
