Ingredients
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 cup ripe banana, mashed
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter.
Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter together on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Add the mashed ripe banana, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon to the bowl.
Mix on low speed until the banana and spices are fully incorporated.
Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until the frosting is smooth and spreadable.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure even mixing.
Use immediately to frost cooled banana muffins or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and stir before using if chilled.
