Banana Buttercream
Apparently, with enough patience and powdered sugar, you can make a buttercream glaze for cookies, cakes, and of course, banana bread.
Simply take two overripe bananas (or roasted for extra flavor) and use a fork to smash them until creamy. Then begin adding powdered sugar one cup at a time, blending with a hand-mixer on high. After about 3 cups, the banana mixture should be thick and ready to use.
