Sweet Potato Banana Bread Recipe

Sweet Potato Banana Bread Recipe

  • non-stick cooking spray
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 banana, mashed
  • 1/2 cup fat-free plain yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup chickpea (garbanzo bean) flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds (optional)
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a loaf pan with cooking spray.
  2. Beat sugar, banana, and yogurt together in a large bowl until smooth. Beat 1 egg into the banana mixture until smooth before adding the second egg and beating again until smooth.
  3. Mix all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt together in a separate bowl; add to the banana mixture with the water and beat until smooth and batter-like. Stir mashed sweet potatoes into the batter until smooth. Fold chocolate and chia seeds through the batter; pour into the prepared loaf pan.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing.
