Preheat your campfire or grill to medium heat.
Take each banana and make a lengthwise slit down the curved side, being careful not to cut all the way through to the bottom of the peel.
Gently open the slit and stuff it with a mix of dark chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts.
Sprinkle the stuffed bananas with a pinch of ground cinnamon for extra flavor.
Wrap each stuffed banana snugly in a sheet of aluminum foil, ensuring they are completely sealed to prevent leaks.
Place the foil-wrapped bananas directly on the hot coals or grill grates. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even heat distribution.
Carefully remove the bananas from the fire using tongs and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before unwrapping.
Open the foil packets, and serve the Fire Baked Bananas warm. They can be enjoyed directly from the peel with a spoon for an easy and delicious dessert.
