- 3/4 cup warmed milk
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter ((1 stick, softened))
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup mashed banana ((about 2 large bananas))
- 4 1/2 - 5 cups flour
- 1/3 cup butter ((melted))
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 TBS cinnamon
- 8 oz cream cheese ((softened))
- 1/2 cup butter ((softened))
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup
- 3 cups powdered sugar
Instruction
- Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl.
- Add in the sugar, butter, salt, eggs, banana, and flour (Start with 4 /12 cups of flour and add a little more at a time as needed) and mix well.
- Once the dough starts to come away from the edges, continue to knead the dough for about 5 minutes (If you are using your hands, dust them with flour to avoid sticking) until a large ball is formed.
- Cover the bowl with a towel and allow to rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the dough is double in size.
- Lightly flour the counter top.
- Roll the dough out until it is approximately 16x21 inches and 1/4 inch thick.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Spread butter over the surface of the dough.
- Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the surface of the dough.
- Carefully roll the dough from the long top edge to the bottom edge.
- Using a thread, or a sharp knife cut the dough into 1 - 1 1/2 in slices.
- Lightly grease a baking pan or two.
- Place rolls in the baking pan and bake for 25 minutes or until the tops turn a light golden color.
- While they are baking combine frosting ingredients. Add more powdered sugar if the frosting is too runny, or a little more milk if it is too thick.
- Remove rolls from the oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before frosting.
