SWEET POTATO BANANA MUFFINS

Soft, moist muffins made with ripe bananas and creamy sweet potato, lightly sweetened and filled with melty chocolate chips for a cozy, comforting bake that works any time of day.

  • Total Time: 37 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup cooked sweet potato, mashed
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, mashed sweet potato, brown sugar, eggs, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Stir in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness.
  • Make sure the sweet potato is fully cooked and well mashed for a smooth batter.
  • Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins soft and tender.
