Sweet Brownie Potato Bars

Sweet Brownie Potato Bars

These Sweet Potato Bars taste like a cross between pumpkin pie and a loaf, except there’s no added sugar! Keep a batch of these bars on hand for a quick, easy and healthy snack or treat! {Gluten-free, paleo & no added-sugar}

I am officially in love with these sweet potato bars. What started as a snack recipe experiment for our baby soon turned into a brand new convenient snack for mom (AKA me). Not to say that I don’t share the bars with the rest of my family, but I’d definitely say that I’ve done the most taste testing out of all of us.

And reasonably so. These things are DE-LICIOUS and so convenient to have on hand.

There are a few reasons why I’m seriously crushing on these sweet potato bars.
