Loved this recipe. It was so simple yet the kids(2, 5, & 6) had so much fun making these. They loved being able to make their own dessert. After pulling out of the oven I also let the kids add whipped cream, strawberries, and blueberries. It was absolutely delicious. Plus, clean up was a breeze by just wrapping the aluminum foil over the banana peel afterwards and tossing.

I made this over a fire when i went camping. The chips and the marshmallos melted together into the banana. It was an amazing snack to eat while camping.

Cool recipe! I made this tonight for my boyfriend and I. Very quick to prepare and no clean up, awesome! I put a layer of peanut butter on first, left off the peels and baked them for about 20 minutes. My boyfriend loved his, but the squishy banana kind of grossed me out. I don't like bananas to begin with though so I don't feel that should detract any stars. Next time I'm going to try doing this with a thinly sliced apple for me and a banana for him!

I always like to do these on summer nights. I buy the packs of Hershey bars; just split the bars in half and add to the 'boat'. I think the milk chocolate is much better than using semisweet chips.

Instead of the chocolate chips, I took 4 different types of chocolate bar and cut them up into pieces. Then everyone chose what kind they wanted in their boat. SO good! I highly recommend this with your favorite candy bar.

I found that if you're doing these in the oven 5 min isn't enough, it should be closer to 10 probably, but these are fun and yummy no matter what your age!

Tasty. However, as other reviewers have mentioned, it takes much longer than eight minutes to melt. Ours took about 22, and for the final 7 minutes we raised the oven temperature about 50 degrees. This item won't be a regular around our house, but it was unusual and enjoyable. Thanks!

Excellent! Learned how to make these at camp quite a few years back. Also good if PB& choc chips are used.

One of my favorite camp desserts, though I do make them at home in the microwave. Make sure to cut off banana stems before microwaving as they will catch fire. Cook time varies so I always cook for a minute at a time. Would be great for kids to do as it doesn't involve the stove or oven, and it is good and squishy when done.

This was one of the quickest, BEST-tasting desserts I ave ever made. I altered this recipe a bit, no offense. Instead of a campfire, I grilled each @ 400 for abour 7 minutes. No need to flip them. Also, I peeled them and used Nestle Tollhouse Caramel/Chocolate Morsels. They melt much quicker on the grill. I served them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. This is the poor man's bananas foster!!!

The idea sounded good and they were fun to make. The chocolate & marshmellows didn't melt in the suggested cooking time and they weren't that big of a hit. The peels turned black in spots and made the bananas very bitter tasting. But others seemed to have better luck with these so we will probably give them another whirl later in the summer.

I had never heard of these before so this was a nice treat. My husband loved them. I guess I am more of a s'mores fan but these were definitely worth the effort. I had to bake them for 15 minutes to melt the chocolate.

What a trip down memory lane. We used to make these at Girl Scout camp only we tossed them into the fire for a minute or so. Fun (great for kids while camping!) and yummy.

I accidentally had one banana peel come off so I cooked that in a double layered foil boat and ended up cooking the other ones in foil boats, too. I thought the black peels were a little gross looking so I would suggest cooking them without the peel in foil boats with a little non-stick spray. Placing them just like you would a banana split in a bowl. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and then the marshmallows on top. Placed them on my grill and it definitely took more like 15 min. to melt the chips and the marshmallows got lightly browned and puffy. Pretty good, a little too sweet. If you like nuts, that would add texture and cut down on the sweetness. It was simple and fun to do, especially with the kids!

The idea behind this recipe is great - unfortunately, better than the execution. Thanks anyway! It was fun to make.
