Chai Spiced Frosting

3. In a separate bowl, add remaining wet ingredients (banana, oil, maple syrup, eggs). Mix well to combine.
4. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and fold until just combined.
5. Carefully divide the mixture into 2 mini cake tins.
6. Bake in the oven for approximately 12 minutes.
7. Remove from cake tin and let cool completely.
