Directions
  1. Preheat grill to medium heat; clean grill grates.
  2. Mist or lightly brush cut sides of bananas with oil.
  3. Sprinkle cut sides of bananas evenly with sugar; let stand for 2-3 min.
  4. Grill bananas cut-side down until dark grill marks appear and fruit releases easily from the grill grates (3-4 min.).
  5. Flip bananas; cook until the skin starts to pull away from the fruit (5-6 min., depending on ripeness).
  6. Remove peels and place bananas on a serving plate(s); drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with nuts. Serve immediately.

 

Tasty Tip:

  • Warm bananas are delicious with ice cream or whipped cream. Also try them in place of (or in addition to) toasted marshmallows in traditional s'mores.
     

Switch-Up:

  • Serve these topped with vanilla or honey Greek yogurt. Bonus: calcium, magnesium, B12 and potassium.
