Learn how to use a torch to make three delicious s’mores recipes for #NationalSmoresDay, including s’mores dip, cupcakes and chia pudding!

GUESS WHAT? Did you know #NationalSmoresDay is coming up next month?! Yes, that’s right—a day dedicated to your favorite childhood (or adult??) summertime snack. To get us prepped for this underrated food holiday that deserves to be celebrated, I’m partnering up with Bernzomatic to bring you three (two healthy, one decadent) delicious s’mores recipes.

But first, have you ever used a torch in the kitchen? It’s one of my favorite gadgets to use, especially when toasting marshmallows or meringue because it allows for more depth of flavor.

If you didn’t know, Bernzomatic produces a variety of torches that can be applied to several different actives, like cooking! To create these recipes, I used the Bernzomatic ST2200 Detail Torch. It's incredibly easy to use and has an adjustable flame control knob, so you can avoid charring those s’mores marshmallows beyond recognition! 

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THESE S’MORES RECIPES

  • A Bernzomatic torch (I recommend the ST2200 or the TS8000), which you can buy at Home Depot, Lowe’s or on Amazon.
  • Butane. Don’t freak out! It comes in a small canister and is less intimidating than it sounds. You can purchase butane at the same places you purchase the torch. 

TO USE A TORCH

1. Fill the torch with butane (follow the instructions in the manual). This part is really simple and takes less than one minute to complete.

2. Press the appropriate knobs on the torch, then point it a few inches away from the object you want to toast/broil/char.

3. That’s it! You’ll notice tons of flavor in your food, and it only takes an extra minute to do. 

S’MORES CHIA PUDDING

This chia pudding can be prepped the night before, and can be eaten for breakfast or dessert, depending on your preference. For this recipe, I used the ST2200 torch to toast the marshmallows so that they're comparable to what they'd taste like roasted over a bonfire (aka the way marshmallows should be!).

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.

  • Combine wet and dry ingredients, then divide mixture evenly into lined muffin tin.

  • Once cupcakes are done, wait for them to cool before adding the meringue.
  • To add the meringue: use a spoon to place a dollop of meringue on each cupcake, then sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs. Use your Bernzomatic torch to toast the meringue to your liking.

    Do the cupcakes use natural or Dutch Processed cocoa powder? Would love to make these for my daughter's first birthday

      I used unsweetened cocoa powder -- I would go with the natural over the Dutch processed. Hope that helps!
