I have to be honest, I was sure I wouldn't like this one. I try so hard to like banana breads (which, despite the title, this is) but never do. But I was determined to at least try this, with the assumption that I wouldn't like it and would take the rest of it in for my work potluck/bake sale.
The recipe calls for a ripe banana. My banana was so ripe, it smelled like it might be about to start fermenting. It was still good (as good as bananas can be), just really, really ripe. So I was certain that the banana flavour would be so pronounced that I wouldn't be able to taste anything else.
Well. I actually really like it. I can still taste the banana, but the sweet potato and spices outshine the flavour. I ate it with some margarine and cinnamon sugar. Mike and I both liked it. I don't know that I'd make it again, but we're gonna finish it ourselves!

I do really like banana breads, but I wasn't sure about the addition of sweet potatoes. It turns out to be super good, especially with the pecans.
