Instructions
- Mash 2 ripe bananas in a spacious mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.

- Let the glaze set for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Mash ripe bananas thoroughly to ensure a smooth, consistent texture throughout the rolls.
- For extra moisture, use brown bananas with plenty of dark spots on the peel.
- Consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter for a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
- When mixing the dough, avoid overmixing to keep the rolls tender and prevent a tough texture.
