Smoked Mini banana loaves with vanilla bean

  • Author: Kelly Cahoon

Description

Baking on your grill. Have you tried it? It’s THE easiest way to get added flavor in your baked goods with a kiss of smoke. Plus it saves space in your oven. You can even use your instant read thermometer to check to see when it’s done! (203F is the sweet spot for most baked items!) If you don’t use a thermometer yet, get going! It’s a MUST for all things cooked, grilled, candied, or baked.
