# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Stir together the mashed bananas, eggs, melted butter, salt, and yeast mix until it’s all blended well.
02 -
In a big bowl, pour warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Wait about 5 minutes till it gets foamy on top.
03 -
Slowly add flour while stirring so the dough starts sticking together. Move it to a floured counter and knead it for 10 minutes by hand.
04 -
Put your dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and set it somewhere warm for around an hour. It should double in size.
05 -
Mix brown sugar, softened butter, and cinnamon until it’s easy to spread.
06 -
On a floured surface, roll the dough flat into a rectangle about 20 by 14 inches. Spread the filling evenly, then sprinkle walnuts if you want.
07 -
Roll the dough up tight from the long side, then slice it into 12 pieces. Put them in a greased pan with the cut sides facing up.
08 -
Cover your pan and let the dough rise again for half an hour while you heat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
09 -
Pop the pan in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden and just a bit crisp on top.
10 -
Throw cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla into a bowl. Beat it all together until smooth and creamy. Spread the frosting on warm buns.
