- Activate the Yeast:
- In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and a pinch of the granulated sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the surface and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, remaining granulated sugar, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
- Add the activated yeast mixture to the banana mixture and stir to combine.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
- First Rise:
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Make the Filling:
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
- Roll Out the Dough:
- Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Fill and Roll:
- Spread the prepared filling evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one long edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log.
- Slice and Arrange:
- Using a sharp knife or a piece of dental floss, slice the rolled dough into 12 equal-sized pieces.
- Arrange the cinnamon rolls in the air fryer basket, leaving a little space between each roll.
- Second Rise:
- Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until puffed and nearly doubled in size.
- Bake in the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
- Place the rolls in the air fryer and cook for 10-15 minutes, checking for doneness after 10 minutes. The rolls should be golden brown and cooked through.
- Make the Cream Cheese Icing:
- While the cinnamon rolls are cooking, prepare the cream cheese icing. In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Ice and Serve:
- Once the cinnamon rolls are done, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Spread the cream cheese icing over the warm rolls.
- Serve and enjoy these delicious Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls!
