Slice bananas into thirds (I sliced them right on the banana lines, which I found works perfect!) Place them on the dehydrator trays.
Once you slice all bananas, dehydrate them on 115 degrees for 3-4 hours or until you can easier rolls bananas without breaking them. It is important you do NOT over dehydrate them.
Place the dates, 1 cup of raisins, cinnamon and nutmeg into your blender to make the filling.
Reserve 1/2 cup and set aside for frosting.
Spread the filling evenly on the dehydrated bananas and place a few of the remaining raisins on each bananas slice.
Place the 1/2 revered filling in the blender and add cashews to blend for the frosting to spread on the buns. If you want these to be completely fat free, omit cashews.
You can either eat them as they are or stick them back in the dehydrator for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!! Xx
