OMGoodness, this Sweet Potato Brownie recipe is super easy to prepare, super delicious and bursting with nutrition. Sweet potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene). They are also a very good source of vitamin C, manganese, copper, pantothenic acid and vitamin B6. Additionally, they are a good source of potassium, dietary fiber, niacin, vitamin B1, vitamin B2 and phosphorus.***Warning: Cut into portions or you’ll eat the whole pan.
