Ingredients
- 4 whole bananas
- 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup mini marshmallows
- 0.25 cup crushed graham crackers
- 4 sheets aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or oven to medium heat (around 375°F). Alternatively, prepare hot coals if cooking over a fire.
Step 2
Take each banana and carefully slice open the peel lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom of the banana.
Step 3
Gently widen the opening of the banana to create a pocket for the fillings.
Step 4
Stuff each banana pocket with an even mix of chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and crushed graham crackers. Press the fillings gently to ensure they stay in place.
Step 5
Wrap each banana tightly in an individual sheet of aluminum foil, making sure the foil is sealed to trap the heat.
Step 6
Place the foil-wrapped bananas on the grill, in the oven, or directly onto hot coals. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the fillings are melted and gooey, and the banana is warmed through.
Step 7
Carefully remove the banana boats from the heat and let them cool for a minute before unwrapping the foil.
Step 8
Serve warm with a spoon and enjoy your Hot Quick Banana Boats!
