Barbecued Bananas with chocolate and peanuts

It is still barbecue season here in Finland, no matter what the weather decides it is doing. Have you done a BBQ and then wondered what you are going to make for dessert? No? Well then clever you but have you tried barbecuing banana with chocolate inside? It is great and I mean it is fruit so it is healthy and all.

I have made this several times this year for friends and family and every time it has been a resounding success. It is cheap, easy and quick to do. You don't even need a barbecue to make it, so you can just add it to your list of desserts. I think it goes great with some vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce but that part is up to you.


To make enough for 4 you will want

4 bananas
100g white chocolate, broken into squares
100g milk chocolate, broken into squares
200g salted and roasted peanuts

Lay the  bananas flat and then slice then three-quarters of a way through. Put a square of milk chocolate in the end and then next to it a square of white, repeat until it is all full (I got three squares of each). Wrap in some tin foil and put on the barbecue for 5 minutes. Open up and serve with a sprinkling of peanuts on top.

It is simply delicious and you'll find this becoming a summer favourite.
