What to do when you have too many bananas: make Grilled Banana Boats recipe

What to do when you have too many bananas: make Grilled Banana Boats recipe
🍌 What to do when you have too many bananas: make Grilled Banana Boats recipe 🚣‍♂️

😘 Ingredients:

  • · 2 ripe bananas
  • · 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
  • · 2 tablespoons shredded coconut
  • · 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or almonds)
  • · Aluminum foil


🏄‍♂️ Instructions:

  • · Slice each banana lengthwise down the middle, but don’t cut all the way through - leave the peel intact to form a "boat."
  • · Gently open the banana and stuff with chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and nuts.
  • · Wrap each banana in aluminum foil.
  • · Grill over medium heat (or bake in the oven at 375°F) for 10–12 minutes, until the banana is soft and the chocolate is melted.
  • · Carefully unwrap and serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.


👌 This fun dessert is easy to make and highlights banana's natural sweetness!

What is your favorite Guava variety?

Tikal Guava

🍉 What is your favorite Guava variety?

Our top pick? Tikal Guava!

Okay, we'll admit it - the tree growth habit can be pretty weird: branches grow at some interesting 90-degree angles, giving it a bit of a wild, chaotic vibe. Think Barbados Cherry bush - if you've seen that unruly spectacle! 😰

But let's focus on what really matters: the fruit. Tikal produces the best pink guava, no contest! It is disease-resistant, fast-growing, super sweet, and boasts very few seeds - huge bonus! Plus, Tikal is a reliable producer, making it perfect for beginners or anyone eager for quick, delicious results. 🌟
