Instructions
- Cook the sweet potato using your preferred method. I wrap mine in a wet paper towel, place it on a plate, and microwave it for 5 minutes per side, or until it is very soft when gently squeezed.
- Allow the potato to cool enough to handle. To speed up the process, refrigerate it until it is room temperature or chilled.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Note: you can also spray the cookie tray with cooking oil if you don't have parchment paper.
- Remove and discard the potato skin and mash the sweet potato flesh in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the almond butter, pure maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl and mix well until the wet ingredients are well combined. Note: If your almond butter has been sitting in the refrigerator, microwave it for 30 seconds, or until it is easy to stir.
- Transfer the cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon and salt to the mixing bowl and mix until the dry ingredients are incorporated into the wet ingredients and a thick sticky dough forms.
- Add the chocolate chips to the large bowl and mix well. The sweet potato cookie dough does not have the same consistency as regular cookie dough. This is normal.
- Use two spoons or a cookie scoop to drop dough onto a parchment-line baking sheet, giving the dough at least 1 inch of space to grow.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 13-16 minutes or until the cookies appear as though they have set up.
- Allow cookies to cool at least 15 minutes before moving them off of the cookie sheet or eating.
