Kids can make their own baked banana boats with custom toppings. We use different berries and honey or peanut butter instead of chocolate chips. These baked bananas are also good topped with crushed graham crackers or granola-whatever your family likes. -Rebekah Viers, Taylors, South Carolina

These Baked Banana Boats are the perfect combination of sweet and savoury. The plantains are perfectly caramelised and the streusel topping adds a nice crunchy texture. I love that they can be made ahead of time, too.

I'm not usually a fan of plantains, but I was pleasantly surprised by these Baked Banana Boats. The sweetness of the plantains is perfectly offset by the buttery streusel topping. They're also a lot easier to make than I thought they would be.

I'm a big fan of plantains and these Baked Banana Boats are no exception. The plantain halves are perfectly caramelised and pair so well with the streusel topping. I love that they can be made ahead of time, too.
