Ingredients
Scale
- Medium to large ripe but firm bananas
- 2 tablespoons Nutella per banana
- A handful of mini marshmallows per banana
- Graham crackers (optional, crushed for topping or serving on the side)
- Heavy-duty aluminum foil
- Optional add-ons: chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans), cinnamon, peanut butter or almond butter as Nutella substitute
Instructions
- Preheat your campfire or grill to medium heat, about 350°F (175°C).
- Slice each banana lengthwise, creating a pocket without cutting all the way through.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of Nutella into the banana pocket.
- Pile mini marshmallows generously on top of the Nutella-filled banana.
- Optionally sprinkle cinnamon or chopped nuts.
- Wrap each banana tightly in heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Place foil packets on hot coals or grill grate and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning once halfway through.
- Remove packets with tongs, let cool for a minute, then carefully unwrap and serve with graham crackers.
Notes
Use ripe but firm bananas to avoid mushiness. Double-wrap foil if thin to prevent leaks. Cook over medium heat to avoid burning marshmallows. Can be baked in oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes. Let sit wrapped for 10 minutes before unwrapping for extra gooeyness. Substitute Nutella with peanut butter, almond butter, or fruit jam for variations.
