How to Make Camping Banana Boat

  1. Preheat your grill or campfire.
  2. Carefully slice each banana lengthwise, about 2/3 of the way down, leaving the peel intact.
  3. Stuff each banana slit with 1 tablespoon of mini marshmallows and 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips.
  4. Sprinkle generously with 1/2 teaspoon of light brown sugar.
  5. Wrap each banana tightly in heavy-duty aluminum foil, ensuring the edges are completely sealed to prevent leakage.
  6. Place the foil-wrapped bananas directly on the grill grate over medium heat or hot coals.
  7. Cook for 7-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are gooey and slightly browned. Cooking time may vary depending on heat source.
  8. Carefully remove from grill using tongs and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
