Step-by-Step Instructions for Sweet Potato Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it.
  2. Blend the wet ingredients: sweet potato, banana, maple syrup or honey, eggs, vanilla, oil, and vinegar until smooth.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients gently until just mixed.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving some for topping.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with reserved chocolate chips.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
