Healthy brownie:
Prep: Wash & pierce the sweet potato a few times with a fork.
2. Air Fry:
• Temp: 190°C (375°F)
• Time: 30–35 mins (medium sweet potato)
• Flip halfway so it cooks evenly.
3. Check: Stick a knife or fork—if it slides in like butter, it’s ready.
4. Scoop: Cut open, scoop out the flesh, and mash it for your brownies.
Ingredients (makes 4 squares):
• ½ cup mashed sweet potato (about ½ medium sweet potato)
• 1 egg (or 1 flax egg for vegan)
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• Optional: 1–2 dates (for extra sweetness, blend them in)
