There are cake-like brownies and there are fudgy brownies. These Vegan Sugar Free Fudge Brownies are decadent and fudgy, almost like mousse even! I have been sugar free for 6 weeks now and it has been really interesting to see the how my sweet tooth has almost diminished. I still have chocolate cravings from time to time, so I came up with this recipe to satisfy that sweet tooth. One thing I found was that if I have healthy alternatives on hand to satisfy that indulgent craving, I can stay on course, but simply trying to ignore my craving is never a good idea!

I love that I am not left craving more sugar after eating these brownies. They will satisfy your sweet tooth without the drug inducing sugar cravings! These brownies are very simple and quick to make. You start by cooking the sweet potato and throwing a few ingredients in to a blender. Then transferring to a bowl and adding the rest of the ingredients. The reason for the blender is to get the sweet potato soft and fluffy. You could also use a hand immersion blender and mix right in the bowl as well if you don’t have a blender.

Why you will love these brownies:

Vegan and Paleo
Made with good-for-you ingredients
Quick to make using ingredients you probably have on hand

These are ingredients I always have on hand, so luckily, I can whip these up whenever the mood strikes. If any of these ingredients are new to you or you’re not in the habit of keeping in the pantry, I recommend you start. The combination of tapioca, almond, and tiger nut flours in baked goods are incredible. I can achieve a delicious texture without feeling the way that traditional flour or even gluten free flours make me feel.

What you need to make these:

Organic sweet potato
Creamy almond butter (the kind with oil on top)
Cacao powder
Swerve granular sweetener
Almond flour or Tiger Nut Flour
Tapioca flour
Baking powder
Flax meal
Apple cider vinegar
Vanilla extract, the best you can find
Sea salt

Can I freeze these?

Yes, wrap them well.

Can I use another kind of nut butter?

Yes, I used almond butter which has oil in it. If you sub another nut butter with less oil. I recommend adding ½ Tablespoon avocado or coconut oil, so these brownies still turn out fudgy.
