Nourishment Notes
These brownies are intentionally crafted for your inner autumn—the luteal phase of your cycle—when your body instinctively craves depth, warmth, and steadiness.
The sweet potato brings grounding and fiber while helping your body gently prepare for release. Cacao not only delivers magnesium (your nervous system’s best friend), but also brings a sacred, sensual energy to this everyday recipe. Whole wheat flour adds density and encourages elimination of excess estrogen, while maple syrup and chocolate chips offer real joy—because healing doesn’t mean deprivation.
Every ingredient is working on multiple levels: physical, emotional, spiritual.
This isn’t just a brownie. It’s luteal love in edible form.
“The beauty and importance of aligning dietary practices with the female body's cycles while recognizing the innate wisdom of feeding hormonal shifts with real, seasonal nourishment.” - Corbin Chase
Cook Time: 1 hour 20 minutes (1 hr for sweet potato, 20 min bake)
Serves: 8–10 small squares
Ingredients
Local Sweet Potato - 1 medium or 2 small
Pasture-Raised Eggs - 3
Local Maple Syrup - 1/2 cup
Stone-Ground, Organic, Whole Wheat Flour (Unbleached) - 6 tbs
Raw Cocao Powder - 3 tbs
Pure Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp
Dark Chocolate Chips - 1/2 cup
Sea Salt - a pinch
Method
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Wash and poke your sweet potato with a fork, then place it in a Dutch oven and bake for 1 hour—no tin foil, no microwaving. Once tender all the way through, keep the oven on. Peel the sweet potato and add the flesh to a mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until smooth and well combined. Line a baking dish with parchment paper and pour in the batter. Bake for 20 minutes, then check for doneness. Let cool slightly to firm up before slicing. Enjoy every bite, my fellow creatrix.
