Flourless Sweet Potato Brownies
Updated January 2026
Chef’s Tips:
* This is the perfect use for leftover baked sweet potatoes! Whenever you bake some, add an extra one so you can make these brownies. If starting from scratch, bake foil-wrapped sweet potatoes at 450°F for 50-60 minutes, until completely tender. Let cool, peel, and mash.
* If you don’t have ground flax seeds, use 2 large eggs instead.
* Coconut oil can be substituted with avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil.
* Instead of dates, use any sweetener you like, adjusting the quantity to taste.
