Manna from Heaven

Yea, ok....so technically, I wouldn't call this "health" food, but it's a far cry from the typical sugar-laden recipes you find out there AND, after a tough workout, you can practically fly these little treats under the nutritional radar without the detrimental effects you would have if using refined flour and refined sugars.

Ingredients

1 sweet potato (I used a large potato, next time, I'll go smaller)

3 eggs, whisked

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 banana mashed (or you could use honey)

1/2 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips (gluten, dairy, soy free!)

3 tablespoons organic coconut flour

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

pinch of salt

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees, using a fork, puncture holes all around it, and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes. Let cool slightly, peel off the skin and mash it up in a bowl.

Turn oven down to 350 degrees.

Mix wet ingredients in a bowl: coconut oil, banana (or honey), vanilla, and whisked eggs.

Add dry ingredients: coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and chocolate chips. Mix until thoroughly incorporated.

Pour into an 8×8 glass baking dish.

Bake for 30-35 minutes.

Watch them disappear!
