Chocolate Stuffed Bananas Food

STUFFED CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER BAKED BANANAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Lay the bananas so the ends are pointing up. Using a knife, cut a slit down the inside top so you can open it like an envelope, careful not to rip open the peel. Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter inside each banana and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Close the peel of the banana up and wrap the entire banana in aluminum foil. Place the bananas on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven to bake, about 10 minutes or until the insides of the banana are soft and warm and the chocolate is melted.

BARBECUED CHOCOLATE-STUFFED BANANAS

Steps:

• Cut each banana lengthways, through the skin, making sure you don't cut all the way through the bottom layer of skin.
• Place about 6 squares of chocolate in the cuts of each banana.
• Wrap in foil and cook over medium hot coals for 10 minutes, turning once.
• To serve- remove the foil and place the bananas on serving plates (skin and all).
• Pile on the whipped cream!

HOT CRISPY WONTONS STUFFED WITH CHOCOLATE AND BANANAS

Steps:

• The day before you plan to make this recipe, leave the milk chocolate in a warm place to make it slightly pliable. Cut each bar into 8 chunks and, with your hands, try to form each chunk into a disk the size of a quarter with no sharp edges. Lay the wonton skins out on a surface and 1 at a time; paint the edges with water. In the center of the wonton skin, place a disk of milk chocolate and a banana slice on top of the chocolate. Fold the wonton skin corner to corner to make a triangle and press together well to seal completely. Cover with plastic wrap and store chilled until ready to fry and serve, up to 10 hours ahead.
• Heat the oil in a deep pot to 350 degrees. Drop the wontons into the oil, being careful not to crowd them (you may have to work in batches) and fry, turning often, until golden brown. Meanwhile, place the cinnamon sugar in a bowl. Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and immediately dredge them in the cinnamon sugar to coat heavily. Serve right away with scoops of vanilla ice cream.

NUTELLA-STUFFED BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease and flour a 8 ½ x 4 ½ inch loaf pan.
• Using a hand mixer cream butter and sugar in a bowl. Add eggs one at a time and mix. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add the mashed banana to the creamed sugar and beat until incorporated. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Pour half the batter in the loaf pan. Using a spoon pour half the chocolate hazelnut spread down the middle of the loaf pan.
• Using a skewer or paring knife, gently swirl the batter and chocolate hazelnut spread together.
• Pour the rest of the batter on top and repeat with remaining chocolate hazelnut spread.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

CHOCOLATE BAKED BANANAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 (or a BBQ). Make a slit through the skin of the bananas along one side - making sure you don't cut all the way through to the other side. Poke in the chocolate buttons along the cut. Put each banana onto a sheet of foil and crimp the edges together to seal into a parcel. Transfer to a baking sheet and cook for 25 mins until the bananas have turned black (or pop straight into the BBQ embers for 15 mins).
• Serve with a scoop of ice cream and any melted chocolate that has escaped!

CHOCOLATE-FILLED BANANA MUFFINS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
• If your bananas aren't already very ripe, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until they are nearly black. Be careful to not overcook or the bananas will leak.
• Let the bananas cool to room temperature. Increase the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C).
• Peel the bananas, then place them in a large bowl. Mash bananas using a hand mixer or fork.
• Add the egg, vegetable oil, sugar, milk, and vanilla. Beat until combined.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the banana mixture. Beat until just combined, being careful to not overmix.
• Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the chocolate sprinkles into the batter.
• Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray. Divide the batter among the cups.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
• Place the chocolate chips in a heatproof liquid measuring cup. Pour over the hot heavy cream. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
• While the muffins are still warm, use the back of a wooden spoon to push down a hole into the center of each muffin. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• Fill the muffins with the chocolate ganache.
• Chill the muffins in the fridge for at least 1 hour, until the center has set.
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE STUFFED BANANAS

Steps:

• 1. Instructions Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Make a lengthwise slit down the center of each banana. Divide the chocolate chips evenly in the center slits of the bananas. Wrap each banana tightly in aluminum foil. Grill the bananas for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the chocolate chips are slightly melted. Unwrap the bananas and peel back the skins. Slice into 2-inch pieces and serve immediately. Notes Since these can be a little messy, you might want to serve them with toothpicks, or slice them a little smaller and serve over ice cream.
