Ingredients for Banana Butter Frosting
How to Make Banana Butter Frosting
- Mash 2 ripe bananas in a medium bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar to the butter, alternating with the mashed bananas, beginning and ending with the powdered sugar. Add a small amount at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Beat on medium-high speed until the frosting is light, fluffy, and completely smooth. Add a pinch of salt to taste.
- If desired, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
