Sweet Potato Brownies

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

Thanks for the comments – perhaps a little clarifying is needed. The sweet potato needs to be roasted until very soft and then well mashed to a soft puree. You could use a sweet potato roasted in a 350 degree oven for about an hour, or until very soft, and then well mashed. Mashed canned sweet potatoes work very well for this. I think canned pumpkin would work well for this recipe also. Thanks so much for your comments!

I just put them in the oven and am excited to find out what happens. But also a bit concerned. I used baked smashed sweet potatoes but the batter didn’t even come together – I had to almost double the sweet potatoes and add applesauce before it began to look like any sort of brownie batter.
Am i missing something in the directions?
