This snack is super easy to put together and you + your kids will love it! I first saw peanut butter and marsh mellows used on apples when I was volunteering in high school at Vacation Bible School. I know I loved the snack as much as the kids! So, the other day when I was jonesin’ for a little sweetness, I took out a banana and put together this little number.
Banana Boat Snack
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- a few knife-fulls of peanut butter
- 12 mini marsh mellows
Directions
1. Cut banana in half. Then, section each half into the banana’s natural thirds. Did you know a banana naturally wants to go into thirds? No? Go grab a banana right now!
2. Using 2 sections each, create 3 little banana boats.
3. Slather on a bit of peanut butter between two of the section and then top with 4 marsh mellows.
4. Repeat until 3 boats are created.
Quick. Simple. Cute. Yummy. Kid-friendly.
Have you ever created some type of banana boat?
I’ve done this before, but not with marshmellows–good idea!!
Add those marshmellows girlfriend!
Yum! This reminds me of ants on a log – pb smeared on top of celery and topped with raisins. My mom used to make this ALL the time for us as kids. To this day, I LOVE it as a snack. hehe
I’ve done this before with chocolate instead of marshmallows, I think it would be delicious with both!
ohh chocolate chips — yum yum yum!
I’ll never be too old for bananas with PB. I like Michelle’s idea of using chocolate chips, too!
me too! sounds delish!
…and then microwave them!!! But that’s how I roll.
oohh yeah baby, that would be fab — i just ate my last banana yesterday though, rawr.
cute idea! i’d use chocolate chips instead of marshmallows! or both
Makenzie would ADORE these. And not gonna hide that I would gobble them up too.
Looks tasty. I’d add a little bit of chocolate on top.
I do this a lot with chocolate chips. I bet Colin would love the marshmallows, though!
