Ingredients

  • 4 bananas, unpeeled
  • 4 teaspoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoons dark rum (optional)

Tools

  • Campfire or grill
  • Foil
  • Knife
  • Zip-top bag or small tupperware

Method

At Home:

  1. Combine brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small zip-top bag or tupperware.

At Camp:

  1. With a sharp knife, cut a slit in each banana lengthwise through the peel, making sure you don’t cut all the way through the other side.
  2. Stuff each banana with 1 teaspoon of butter, the brown sugar mixture, and drizzle 1 teaspoon of rum over the top.
  3. Wrap each banana in aluminum foil and place on a grate over a hot campfire. Grill for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until the bananas are hot and the sugar is melted.
  4. Remove from heat, unwrap bananas, and eat with a spoon.
