Instructions
- Make the banana cinnamon roll dough, up through Step 3 (allowing the dough to double in size).
- Grease a 9×13″ baking dish with butter or coconut oil, set aside. Once the dough has about doubled in size, lightly cover rolling pin and flat surface with flour. Roll out dough into a 15×9 inch rectangle. Be patient, and roll gently. Don’t use too much flour or your dough will be stiff. Spread on softened butter, peanut butter, sprinkle on brown sugar, then ground cinnamon; gently pat to let sugar absorb into butter slightly. Place sliced bananas flat on dough in 3 long rows (see picture in post). Using the heels of your hands and thumbs, gently roll dough into a long roll, placing seam side down.
- Trim off no more than 1" of the ends, then use floss method to slice rolls or a serrated knife to gently cut into about 1 1/2″ width. You should get 12 rolls for a 9×13 pan. Place rolls in greased pan, leaving room to rise, and put pan in draft-free environment. You can use the warm oven tip above. See notes below for overnight adaptation.
- Once the rolls have risen again slightly (about 15 minutes), preheat oven to 350ºF (take rolls out and wait for oven to get up to 350ºF). Bake cinnamon rolls for 18-20 minutes, until lightly browned.
- While the rolls are cooling, make the glaze: in a medium bowl whisk together peanut butter, confectioners sugar, vanilla extract and 3 tablespoons of milk. Start with 3 tablespoons of milk; if glaze is very thick, add another tablespoon of milk. Pour glaze over cinnamon rolls and serve warm!
Notes
- You can use bread flour or unbleached all-purpose flour for the dough recipe. Bread flour will give you the fluffiest rolls, but unbleached all-purpose flour works too.
- To keep this recipe vegan, use plant based butter (i.e. country crock plant butter sticks) and vegan friendly confectioners sugar.
- If you don't love bananas but still like peanut butter, you could make my vegan cinnamon rolls with the peanut butter filling and peanut butter glaze.
