Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large ripe but firm bananas
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- ½ cup semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- Aluminum foil for wrapping
Instructions
- Prepare the bananas by slicing each lengthwise down the middle, leaving about ½ inch intact so the banana holds together like a boat with the peel on.
- Gently open the banana slit and stuff with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips, leaving some space for melting.
- Wrap each stuffed banana tightly in aluminum foil, folding edges to seal and prevent leaks. Double-wrap if foil is thin or cooking directly on embers.
- In a small bowl, mix creamy peanut butter with honey or maple syrup until smooth and pourable.
- Place the foil packets on hot coals or grill grate and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally with tongs for even heat, until marshmallows puff and chocolate melts.
- Carefully unwrap the banana boats and drizzle with the peanut butter mixture before serving.
Notes
Use ripe but firm bananas to hold shape. Double-wrap foil for direct ember cooking. Avoid direct flames to prevent burning. Mix peanut butter drizzle just before serving for best texture. Can be cooked in oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes if no campfire available.
