Roasted Banana Cinnamon Rolls

asian steph and i tried to make these...... attempted... and they were pretty good. but the roll/loaf part was a little hard.. they sat in a tupperware over night and softened up... so they were better in the morning :) maybe not the prettiest... but the roasted banana part was delicious!


Roasted Banana Cinnamon Rolls

2 ripe bananas cut into 1/4 inch slices

2 Tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

2 Tablespoons brown sugar

1 roll Pillsbury French Bread Loaf

4 Tablespoons softened butter

1/2 Cup brown sugar

1 1/2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon

1 Cup powdered sugar

3-4 Tablespoons heavy cream

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place banana slices and cut up pieces of butter into a small baking dish. Sprinkle with brown sugar and bake for 25 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes. Next, use a fork to smash roasted bananas until well combined.

2. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F. Unroll Pillsbury French Bread dough into rectangle. Spread with softened butter and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Place dollops of roasted banana mixture evenly over top. Starting from long end, roll up into log shape. Using a sharp knife, cut 1 inch slices and place onto a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until just turning golden brown. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes.

3. Whisk powdered sugar and heavy cream until combined; drizzle over top of warm rolls.
