This icing recipe is from Bridget at Never Here Again. It's egg-free, dairy-free, corn-free and free of refined sugars--hard to find in a frosting recipe!
Mix together:
1 cup mashed sweet potato
1 ripe banana (could also use amasake)
2 T maple syrup or brown rice syrup
1 t orange juice
We can't have sweet potato or maple syrup, so if anyone tries this please let me know how it is.
it was very good and itwas very sweet.from Casey age 8
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteI left out half of the banana, added some cinnamon and nutmeg, and substituted honey for the syrup (because of my own health restrictions - no artifical sweeters), and it was fabulous. I also added cinnamon and nutmeg to your brown sugar cake and topped it with this icing. It was a very lovely brunch cake with tea. Great fall flavors.
ReplyDeleteAlso have you tried making vanilla extract with some kind of alcohol other than vodka? I think gin might work and avoid the corn.
It was too mushy for me and i think the banana was very overpowering.
