  6. - 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

  11. ## **Step-by-Step Instructions**
  12. ### **1. Preheat the Grill**
  13. Start by preheating your grill to medium heat (around 350°F or 175°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly distributed. For a stovetop option, use a grill pan over medium heat.
  14. ### **2. Prepare the Bananas**
  15. Leave the bananas in their peels and make a lengthwise slit along the top of each banana, ensuring you don’t cut all the way through. This creates a pocket for the toppings and allows the heat to penetrate evenly.
  16. ### **3. Add Sweeteners and Spices**
  17. Drizzle honey or maple syrup into the slit of each banana. Sprinkle cinnamon powder evenly over the top. For extra richness, brush the outside of the banana peels with melted butter or coconut oil to prevent sticking and enhance flavor.
  18. ### **4. Grill the Bananas**
  19. Place the bananas directly on the grill, slit side up. Close the lid and let them cook for 5-7 minutes. The heat will soften the bananas and caramelize the natural sugars, creating a gooey, delicious texture.
  20. ### **5. Check for Doneness**
  21. After 5 minutes, carefully open the grill and check the bananas. They should be slightly softened, and the peels will darken. If needed, grill for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  22. ### **6. Add Optional Toppings**
  23. Once grilled, remove the bananas from the heat. Open the slits further and add optional toppings like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a dollop of whipped cream. For an extra treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  24. ### **7. Serve and Enjoy**
  25. Serve the grilled bananas immediately while warm. Use a spoon to scoop out the soft, caramelized banana and enjoy the perfect blend of smoky, sweet, and creamy flavors.

  27. ## **Tips for Perfect Grilled Bananas**
  28. - Use ripe but firm bananas to avoid mushiness.
  29. - Experiment with toppings like shredded coconut, caramel sauce, or fresh berries.
  30. - For a healthier option, skip the butter and use only honey or maple syrup.
