    These ooey gooey sweet Campfire Stuffed Bananas are easy to make and will soon be your new camping go-to favorite!

    I go camping quite a bit, and these stuffed banana boats are a perfect campfire dessert. They are fast and easy, and there's very little cleanup.

    I used pecans, dark chocolate baking chunks, and coconut flakes, but you could customize them to your tastes.

    Another recipe to try is my Homemade Banana Cream Pie Kombucha recipe.

      Holy mother of Get-In-My-Belly-Now! I think I'd make mine banana split style with chocolate, a bit of coconut, strawberry jam, and marshmallows (maybe pineapple too, but that's really pushing it)!
