Sweet Potato Protein Brownies (With Macro's)

Ingredients to make 8:

1 medium sized sweet potato (about 300g)

100g smooth peanut butter

25g melted chocolate

1 scoop unflavoured whey protein

2tsp cocoa powder

1tsp sweetener

How we do:

Wash and prick the sweet potato all over with a sharp knife and microwave on high for 5 minutes, turn and microwave for another 5 – at this point the inside should be soft and tender, but if it isn’t continue the process until it is, an extra minute at a time.

Preheat the oven to 180 celcius and line a brownie tin with baking parchment

Once the sweet potato has cooled, scoop out the flesh and mash until smooth. Mix in the peanut butter, whey protein, cocoa powder, sweetener and melted chocolate and continue mixing until it forms into a smooth batter.

Pour the batter into a brownie tin and spread out, smoothing it out and making it level.

Bake for around 20 minutes, until the top is well cooked

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into 8 delishamous pieces!
