No, no, no, no, no, because I've seriously outdone myself this time. Hormone balancing brownies that are packed with fiber, antioxidants, nutrients, great for you, gluten-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, packed with chocolate, ooey gooey, have ironed so freaking good-free, let's get into it. Now bear with me, the first ingredient is going to be sweet potato. I've made these brownies they've gone viral, and millions of you use multiple times, however, I always use regular orange sweet potatoes. This time, my friends, we are using a Japanese sweet potato. Now, Japanese sweet potatoes are just as great for your hormones as regular sweet potatoes. They've got lots of more minerals, but also they have, like, vanilla caramel notes when you bake them, so I anticipate this actually being my best sweet potato brownie ever. Now, I know the measurement place is coming after me, this is about a cup and a quarter, so one cup and one fourth of a cup of sweet potato, I'm just going to mash it up. Next up, we need sweetener of choice, and you guessed it, dates are the absolute best in this sweet potato brownie. I took six large dates, they've been soaking in hot water for about two hours. I'm going to strain out the water, and then I'm going to throw these in here and mash it into my sweet potato, because they've been sitting in hot water, you can see they just break apart very easily. Okay, now next ingredient, I'm going to throw in here is chocolate chips, just because my sweet potato and my dates are still pretty warm, and they're going to melt the chocolate chips into the batter. I don't know, I just did it one time by accident, because I was rushing, and it turned out to be the best sweet potato brownie ever, so ever since then, I always put the chocolate in so it melts and emulsifies with the sweet potato and the dates. I put about two tablespoons of dark chocolate, and then you can see as I'm mixing them in, these are totally just melting, we're going to move on to our oat flour. Here I come, measuring, I'm going to do half a cup of oat flour, I have to blend these up really quick, but I'm measuring to show you guys half a cup. Before I throw in my oat flour, I'm going to crack two eggs into the mixture, I'm also going to throw in about a tablespoon of vanilla, and I'm going to put sunflower oil, you could put peanut butter, almond butter, any nut butter that you like. A lot of people ask me, or say they have an allergy, if you have an allergy to nut butters, you can skip this. However, this is our hormone balancing brownies, and sunflowers are really good for in the luteal phase, they're good, they have zinc, they're good for progesterone, so that is why I'm adding this, but you can skip. Two tablespoons, next up a very generous pinch of salt, give all of this a really good mix. Now into our wet batter, we're going to add our half a cup of oat flour, and then lastly these are chocolate brownies, obviously, so we're going to do half a cup of cacao powder. Cacao powder is great, it's an antioxidant, it helps stimulate stem cells, it's great for you in your luteal phase, again can help with cramping, we're going to mix all of this together. I lied, one more ingredient, baking soda, obviously just about half a tablespoon is more than enough, now mix up your batter. And then you have this perfect brownie batter, you could stop here, you guys know that I'm not going to, I'm going to add some mix in, so I'm going to put walnuts in this batch, walnuts are packed with omega-3s, they're really good for your brain health and your hormones. And when I'm in my luteal phase and menstrual cycle, my brain needs all the help I can get, so walnuts are going in this brownie. Then make sure you grease your pan and go ahead and throw your brownie mixture into it, I added more walnuts and chocolate chips on top, now this is going in the oven at 375 for 22 minutes. And this is what you get straight out of the oven, it smells incredible, I just sprinkled some sea salt on top and that is it, hormone balancing brownie.
