Ingredients

• 4 whole Bananas
• 1 cup Mini marshmallows
• 1 cup Chocolate chips
• 1 cup Crushed graham crackers
• 4 tablespoons Peanut butter (optional)
• 4 sheets Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C) if not using a campfire.

Step 2

Cut each banana lengthwise down the middle, making sure not to cut all the way through the bottom peel. Gently open the banana to create a pocket.

Step 3

Stuff each banana with a handful (about 1/4 cup) of mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, and crushed graham crackers. Add a tablespoon of peanut butter to each banana if desired.

Step 4

Wrap each stuffed banana tightly in a sheet of aluminum foil, ensuring there are no open seams.

Step 5

Place the foil-wrapped bananas on the grill, in the oven, or directly in campfire coals.

Step 6

Cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the chocolate and marshmallows are melted and gooey.

Step 7

Carefully remove the banana boats from the heat and let them cool slightly. Unwrap the foil and serve with a spoon for scooping out the delicious filling.
