Sweet Potato Brownies (paleo-friendly!)

SWEET POTATO COLLAGEN BROWNIES! These are the fudgiest, most DELISH brownies. You would never in a million years guess they’re refined sugar-free, paleo, and contain sweet potatoes + collagen protein 🙌🏼

Even all of my siblings were obsessed (and they’re a tough crowd considering they’re used to regular ole sugar + flour filled brownies). These were gone in about five minutes. Luckily, I’ve learned how any kind of treat goes in this house so I hid a few for myself before I offered the rest 😉

These Sweet Potato Brownies are so easy to make, you simply add all of your ingredients to a food processor or blender!

You can always prep your sweet potato in advance and store in the refrigerator until you are ready to make the brownies.
