Pour the wet ingredients into the middle of the dry ingredients. Mix with a spatula until just combined. Gently stir in chocolate chips.
Fill the prepared muffin tin until the cups are ¾ full and bake for 22-24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a muffin comes out clean.

Store muffins at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or carefully wrap and freeze up to 3 months.
Notes
Can I use vegetable oil instead? Yes, you can substitute vegetable oil in place of the melted butter and coconut oil.
Can I use dairy-free milk? Yes, I used unsweetened almond milk. I recommend these dairy-free chocolate chips too!
Can I use canned sweet potato? Yes, I prefer to roast and mash my own, but canned will work too. You can also substitute cooked and mashed yams.
Where do I find Pamela’s Baking and Pancake Mix? I picked mine up in the health food aisle of our local grocery store. It's also available to order from Amazon.
