    Yields9 Servings
    Prep Time15 minsCook Time25 minsTotal Time40 mins
     2 small or 1 large sweet potato (425g), peeled and chopped into small chunks
     ½ cup (75g) raw almonds, or ½ cup almond meal
     ½ cup (50g) rolled oats
     ½ cup + 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
     ¼ cup + 2 tablespoon coconut sugar
     ½ cup dark chocolate chips
    1

    Steam or boil the sweet potato chunks until soft. Preheat oven to 350F/177C.

    2

    Mash the sweet potato and place in refrigerator to cool. Blend the oats in a food processor until fine, remove, then add almonds and pulse into almond flour.

    3

    Add sweet potato mash and all other ingredients and blend again to combine. Stir in chocolate chips.

    4

    Line a 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper and smooth mixture into the dish, top with chopped nuts and more chocolate chips if desired, and bake for 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool before removing from pan, then cut into squares. (I think they taste better after chilling in the fridge for a while!)
