  3. Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the blondies.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted comes out clean.

Notes

Substitutions:
Bananas - use 1/2 cup more sweet potato - you may need to use more dates for sweetness
Aquafaba - apple sauce
Japanese Sweet Potato - Hannah Yam or a regular sweet potato. JSP's and Hannah Yams are sweeter than regular sweet potatoes so you may need to use more dates.
Unsweetened Chocolate Chips - semi sweet chocolate chips but they will have added sugar, be sure they are dairy free.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with a scoop of Peanut Butter Banana Nice Cream & Chocolate Sauce
