How to Make Barbecued Chocolate Stuffed Bananas
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut the bananas lengthwise, leaving about ½ inch at the bottom intact to hold the filling.
- Gently spread the melted chocolate inside each banana half.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, and butter until smooth.
- Brush the barbecue mixture generously over the stuffed bananas.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bananas are softened and the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chopped nuts (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
