These delicious and messy fireside treats are easy to whip up, don’t take a lot of preparation and the kids will love being able to toss them straight onto the fire.
You will need:
- bananas
- a knife
- chocolate chips
- small marshmallows
- graham crackers
- tinfoil
Slice your bananas longwise down the center without peeling. Stuff the middles with chocolate chips. I recommend the small chocolate chips. I bought bigger ones this time and it didn’t work as well.
Top your chocolate chips with little marshmallows. Push everything as far into the banana as you can.
Wrap the entire banana up in tin foil. Make sure that none of the edges of the banana are exposed. When you are wrapping your banana, you want to wrap as much of the foil as you can on the peel and not on the chocolate or marshmallows. If the foil is straight on these, they will melt onto the foil instead of the banana.
Campfire Banana Boats bring back some wonderful memories for me, they are delicious and nostalgic !
