Crust
- 4 bananas
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons pecans
Filling
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup dates
- ¼ cup coconut water
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- ¼ chopped pecans or walnuts
Topping
- 2 tablespoon of maple syrup
- 3 tablespoon of Kite Hill Cream cheese
Instructions for Crust
Preheat the oven to 250º degrees.
Mix bananas, chia seeds, pecans in the blender for about 3 minutes until smooth.
Spray the parchment paper with coconut spray to line the pan.
Pour the banana mix into a baking pan lined onto parchment paper pan.
Even it out with a spatula.
Bake for about 1 ½ hours but check to make sure not to over cook. It should peel off easily and have a slight golden brown color.
Test the edge of the pan before removing from the oven, if it’s firm in the center and peels it is done.
Once it has cooled, slice about and 1 inch apart the long length of the pan.
While the banana mix is baking, start mixing the center.
Instructions for Filling
Rinse out the Vitamin, put cinnamon, dates, coconut water, coconut oil and pecans together.
Mix until it is a paste texture.
Take your spatula and spread the mix gently on to the banana strip
Roll from one end to the other and place on the pan.
Put all the buns together and return to the oven for 10 minutes or microwave for 30 seconds until warm.
- The recipe will make 5 buns if strips are cut evenly.
- I prefer to eat them the same day or the next.
- I did not freeze my Cinnamon Buns.
