I know, the title of this post is pretty hokey, but I can’t help it, baked banana boats have to be one of my favorite desserts!  My 9 year old son told me about the recipe, which he discovered in his “Boy’s Life” magazine.  Apparently, this recipe is a camper’s favorite.  If you google baked bananas, you’ll get lots of other great ideas on toppings.  The added benefit is that I can do this with my boys and they feel like they’ve created something very special.  This is a two thumbs up recipe, perfect for anyone at anytime!

Ingredients:

Bananas
Chocolate Chips
Marshmallows

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 300ºF. Slit each banana lengthwise through 1 side of peel, taking care to avoid cutting all the way through banana. Stuff each slit with chocolate chips and marshmallows.
2. Wrap each banana in aluminum foil, place upright on a baking sheet and bake until chocolate and marshmallows have melted, 10 to 15 minutes. Unwrap and serve immediately.
