Ingredients

Method

1

Cook the sweet potato cubes until soft, then drain and leave to cool.

2

Preheat the oven to 180oC and grease and line a 12x9in baking tin.

3

Place ¾ of the cooked sweet potato in a blender along with the apple puree, almond milk, vanilla, maple syrup and vinegar and blend up until smooth.

If you don’t have a blender, mash up the sweet potato until completely smooth, then whisk with the other ingredients.

4

Stir in the oat flour, ground almonds, flaxseeds, cacao powder, coconut sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and fold in to form quite a thick chocolate batter. Stir in the walnuts.

5

Spoon this into your prepared tin then bake for 25-30 minutes, until risen and firm to the touch. Leave to cool in the tin.

6

Meanwhile, make the ganache by opening the chilled coconut milk can and scraping out the solid cream at the top.

7

Place in a blender with the rest of the cooked sweet potato, maple syrup, cacao and vanilla and blend until smooth.

8

Alternatively, whip in a bowl with the mashed sweet potato and other ingredients if you don’t have a blender.

9

Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (can be made 4 days in advance).

10

Once the brownies have cooled down, cut into 12 and spread a layer of the ganache on top of each one.

11

Decorate with anything you want - chopped hazelnuts, freeze-dried raspberries and pomegranate all work well.

12

Keep any remaining brownies in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days (frosted) or 5 days (unfrosted).
