Sweet Potato Brownies

TIME: 1HR
SERVINGS: 12

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup freshly brewed coffee
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted into the hot coffee
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
2/3 cup sweet potato puree
1 Table spoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup organic cane sugar (alternatively, you can use chopped prunes or dates)
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 tea spoon salt
3/4 cup high protein cricket Flour
1/2 tea spoon baking powder
1/3 cup cocoa nibs

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 168 degrees Celsius .  

In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine sweet potato puree, vanilla, coconut oil and chocolate melted in coffee. (If you’re using chopped prunes or dates as a sweetener, add now rather than with the dry ingredients.)

In a separate bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Slowly add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. 

Butter an 8×8 baking dish (alternatively, you can use coconut oil) and pour the batter in, spreading evenly into the corners.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Allow to cool before serving.

    About Us

    No matter how unpalatable insects might seem to you, creepy crawlies such as silkworms, caterpillars, and crickets just might be a key source of protein in your food. They also might be an important way to increase sustainability in the food chain.

    The notion of insects as food might make your skin crawl, but they have been a common part of the human diet for thousands of years. Today, they are actively consumed in various parts of the world. The farming of insects such as crickets has taken off in many countries including Thailand, India, South Africa, and Kenya.
