Ultimate Smores Recipes & More Gooey Inspiration
August 10, 2018It’s #NationalSmoresDay and we’re celebrating campfire season with the perfectly toasted marshmallows of your sleep-away campin’ dreams! We’re bringing s’more variety to your life with colourful smores combinations to an ooey-gooey Banana Boat and everything in between. (Yes, you heard it here folks… a Banana Boat!)
Classic smores will always have a place in our hearts—but since we’re always open to a little culinary adventure, we decided to step up our game and introduce some hard-to-resist ingredients too. Grab your favourite smores ingredient combo, stack ’em together and take a big ol’ bite. Now that’s what we call summer bliss!
MARSHMALLOW ROASTING HACK: Don’t have a fire to toast your marshmallows? You can still enjoy this sweet treat using your oven.
- Layer your marshmallows on some graham crackers on a baking sheet and place on the top rack of your oven.
- Broil until desired colour.
- Keep a very close eye on your marshmallows so they don’t burn. They will brown very quickly!
