Tips to Make Super Fudgy Vegan and Gluten Free Sweet Potato Brownies

  • Make sure to mash the sweet potatoes very finely for a smoother brownie texture.
  • Use natural peanut butter that is runny; this will help create a creamy batter.
  • You can adjust the amount of chocolate chips to your taste; add more for an extra chocolatey flavor!
  • If the mixture seems too thick, add a little more dairy-free milk until you reach the right consistency.

Variation

Feel free to swap the peanut butter for almond or cashew butter if you prefer. You can also mix in nuts, seeds, or dried fruits for added texture and flavor.

FAQs

1. Can I use other sweeteners instead of maple syrup?
Yes, you can use agave nectar, coconut sugar, or any other sweetener you like. Just keep in mind that different sweeteners might change the taste slightly.

2. Is it necessary to cool the brownies before cutting?
Yes, letting the brownies cool helps them set better and makes them easier to cut into neat slices.

3. What can I use instead of oat flour?
You can use almond flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend if you don’t have oat flour on hand. Just ensure it’s a gluten-free option to keep the recipe safe for gluten sensitivities.

Hi, I’m Olivia Carter. I’m 41 years old, born in Nashville, Tennessee, and now living in Denver, Colorado, where the mountains are as much a part of my inspiration as the markets I shop from. My kitchen is my safe place it smells of herbs, wood smoke, and sometimes just-baked bread cooling on the counter.

I didn’t grow up with professional chefs around me just hardworking parents and a grandmother who believed that love always started with a pot on the stove. She taught me how to make biscuits without a recipe, how to know when cornbread is ready just by the sound it makes, and how to never waste a single vegetable from the garden. Those lessons stuck with me more than anything I ever read in a cookbook.

My path here wasn’t simple. I started as a server, sneaking glances into the kitchen whenever I could. Eventually, I found myself behind the line, sweating through long shifts, burning my fingers, and learning faster than I thought possible. Later, I studied culinary arts in New York, but I’ve always said the best training came from real kitchens, real mistakes, and real people who pushed me to keep going.

Today, my cooking is rooted in Southern tradition but shaped by everywhere I’ve traveled and everything I’ve tasted. I love the balance of smoky barbecue with bright citrus, the sweetness of honey paired with a kick of chili, and the way fresh herbs can lift even the simplest dish. Food, to me, is about contrast it should surprise you while still feeling like home.

I cook for people who want food that tells a story. I believe meals should connect us to memory, to family, to joy. It’s not about perfection or fancy plating it’s about sitting down, taking a bite, and feeling something.

If you’ve ever laughed around a messy kitchen table, licked barbecue sauce off your fingers, or found comfort in a bowl of soup on a hard day, then you already understand what my cooking is about. Welcome I can’t wait to share it with you.
