Mike made this delicious grilled banana dessert in place of a cake for my birthday. He grilled the banana in its skin, cutting a thin slit in the skin (cutting into the banana slightly) as the only prep. Topped with blueberries, sprinkled with Ghirardelli cocoa, and served with vanilla ice cream, what a treat!








Oh yum! I LOVE grilled bananas! Sounds like a perfect birthday dessert!

Oooh, Mary Anne, this is a variation on a British campfire classic! Cut a slit in the banana, stuff with mars bar, wrap in foil and place in the embers at the end of a campfire. So good! Also good with Cadbury’s milk chocolate, though not as toffee-ish.
Glad to see that Mike is looking after you so well – hugs to you both,
Kx

This looks delicious! My kids and Jamie would LOVE this! I would like it too, but being the “has to have gobs of chocolate on it” lover that I am, I would have to have the Cadbury’s mentioned above to LOVE it:-).
Mike is awesome to make this for you. Really, that is sweet and super!

This makes the banana dessert even sweeter than a cake! Mike is a lovely husband I must say :-)

This looks and sounds amazing! And so smart to use the grill rather than baking for a summer birthday.

Yummo, this looks delicious. I like that it is so simple to make and it would certainly be a hit in our house.

Hello! I’ve been absent from blogland for over a month now but I’m (sort of) back! This looks absolutely heavenly. I’ve added it to my recipes bookmark file. I haven’t been liking sweets nearly as much recently and bananas are one of my favorite natural sweets. I would love this instead of cake for my birthday.
