BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Cut banana peel lengthwise about 1/2 in. deep, leaving 1/2 in. at both ends. Open peel wider to form a pocket. Fill each with 1 teaspoon chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon marshmallows. Crimp and shape four pieces of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square) around bananas, forming boats., Grill, covered, over medium heat until marshmallows melt and are golden brown, 5-10 minutes.

BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F or prepare a grill for medium indirect heat. For a gas grill (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the middle burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For a charcoal grill, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Break the chocolate bar into squares. Lightly spray kitchen shears with cooking spray and cut the marshmallows in half crosswise.
• Use a paring knife to cut a slit down the center of 1 unpeeled banana lengthwise, being sure not to cut all the way through. Gently insert alternating pieces of half the chocolate and 4 marshmallow halves. Press the marshmallows into the banana as much as possible so they don't stick out too much. Wrap the banana in nonstick aluminum foil. Repeat with the remaining banana, chocolate and 4 marshmallow halves.
• Bake or grill over indirect heat, covered, until gooey, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool 1 minute before unwrapping and eating.

BAKED BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Cut each banana lengthwise about 1/2 in. deep, leaving 1/2 in. uncut at both ends. Place each banana on a 12-in. square of foil; crimp and shape foil around bananas so they sit flat. Gently pull each banana peel open, forming a pocket. Fill pockets with pineapple, granola, pecans and chocolate chips., Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until chips are softened.

CAMPFIRE BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Split the bananas lengthwise, but don't cut all the way through. The goal is to create a boat to hold the ingredients. Load the bananas 1/4 cup each of the caramel bits, chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Crumble 1 whole graham cracker onto each loaded banana. Wrap individually in 8-by-10-inch squares of foil, and then place near the campfire to melt the candies. Open up and eat with a spoon.

BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Slit each banana lengthwise through the peel, making sure not to cut all the way through to the other side. Stuff the bananas with marshmallows and chocolate chips.
• Wrap each banana in aluminum foil and cook over a fire, on the barbecue, or in a 300 degree oven for 5 minutes, or until chocolate is melted. Eat with a spoon.

ROASTED BANANA BOATS

Steps:

• Using a small paring knife carefully slice the banana peel from top to bottom. Open up the peel like a pocket. Spread the banana with the chocolate hazelnut spread, equally divided between the 6 bananas, top each with the marshmallows and sprinkle with chopped nuts. Gently fold the banana peel back in place, wrap the bananas in aluminum foil and cook over the coals for about 10 minutes.
