For fire-roasted bananas, take each banana and slice it lengthwise, but don’t cut all the way through. Stuff the inside of the banana with chocolate chips. Then, wrap each banana in aluminum foil tightly. Place the wrapped bananas on hot campfire coals for about 10 minutes. After that, carefully unwrap the foil to find soft bananas and melted chocolate.

These treats are best enjoyed fresh, so it is not ideal to store them. S’mores can become soggy if left too long. If you have leftover fire-roasted bananas, you can keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for a day, but they will taste best when enjoyed right after cooking.

tips to make S’mores and Fire-Roasted Bananas

FAQs

1. Can I use other types of chocolate for s’mores?
Yes, feel free to use dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or even flavored chocolate for your s’mores.

2. What if I don’t have a campfire?
You can make s’mores in an oven by broiling them for a few minutes. For the bananas, you can use a grill instead of a campfire.

3. How do I know when the bananas are done?
The bananas are done when they feel soft to touch, and the chocolate inside is melted. They should aroma great and be easy to scoop out with a spoon.
