Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 ripe, firm bananas
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 cup fresh or canned pineapple chunks, drained
- 1/2 cup chocolate sauce
- 1 cup whipped cream (from a can or homemade)
- 8–10 maraschino cherries, drained
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or peanuts)
- Optional: Sprinkles for garnish
Instructions
- Prep Your Fruit: Peel bananas and slice into 1 to 1.5-inch thick rounds. Halve larger strawberries. If using fresh pineapple, cut into bite-sized chunks. Lightly toss banana slices in lemon juice to prevent browning, if desired.
- Assemble the Skewers: Carefully thread fruit onto wooden or metal skewers, alternating banana, strawberry, and pineapple. Aim for 3-4 pieces of each fruit per skewer, leaving space at the top.
- Add Your Toppings: Arrange assembled skewers on a serving platter. Drizzle generously with chocolate sauce.
- Finish with Cream and Garnish: Top each skewer with a dollop of whipped cream. Crown each with a maraschino cherry. Sprinkle with chopped nuts and optional sprinkles.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious banana split skewers right away for the best freshness and texture.
