Ingredients

For the Cinnamon Roll:

½ Banana mashed until it forms a puree
2 Tablespoons Yogurt of Choice use dairy-free yogurt to make this recipe vegan-friendly!
½ Cup Self-Rising Flour
2 Tablespoons Freeze Dried Strawberries blended into a powder

For the Filling:

1 Tablespoon Butter or Vegan Butter melted
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar or substitute coconut sugar
½ Teaspoon Cinnamon

For the Icing:

¼ Cup Powdered Sugar
1 Tablespoon Freeze Dried Strawberries blended into a powder
1 Teaspoon Water

Instructions

Start by peeling and mashing your banana in a bowl, with a fork, until it is almost pureed.
Then, set aside and prepare your strawberries by adding your freeze dried strawberries to a food processor and pulsing until a powder forms.
Then, add the powder to the bowl with the banana, along with the yogurt and self-rising flour.
Preheat your oven to 350 F while you prepare the rest of the dough.
Mix until fully combined and the dough is sticky. Keep adding in more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough forms a ball, then transfer the ball to a floured surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough, but be careful that it doesn’t break!
Next, cut your dough into two strips, then roll each strip together. Look at the video for exact instructions on how to do this!
Finally, transfer your cinnamon roll to a greased ramekin or mug and bake at 350 F for 15 minutes. While the cinnamon roll is baking, prepare your icing by mixing the icing ingredients together, in a bowl, until there are no clumps.
Once your cinnamon roll is done, remove it from the oven and let cool completely before adding in the icing. Then, add the icing, serve immediately, and enjoy!
