Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe but firm bananas
- 2 tablespoons (30g) Nutella
- 1/4 cup (40g) marshmallows (regular or mini)
- Heavy-duty aluminum foil
- Optional: chopped nuts (hazelnuts or pecans)
- Optional: sprinkle of sea salt
Instructions
- Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise down the middle, leaving a hinge on one side so they open like a book.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons (30g) of Nutella inside the banana split.
- Place about 1/4 cup (40g) of marshmallows on top of the Nutella. Optionally, scatter chopped hazelnuts for extra crunch.
- Wrap each stuffed banana tightly in heavy-duty foil, sealing the edges well.
- Cook the foil packets over hot coals or grill grates for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally with tongs to heat evenly until the banana is soft and marshmallows are melted and golden.
- Carefully unwrap the hot foil packets using tongs or oven mitts and serve immediately while warm and gooey.
Notes
Use ripe but firm bananas to hold shape. Heavy-duty foil prevents leaks and ensures even cooking. Turn packets occasionally to avoid hot spots. For indoor cooking, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes. Optional add-ins include nuts, sea salt, or fresh berries. Vegan and dairy-free versions possible with substitutions.
