Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 plantains, peeled and chopped “hamburger” style (the easiest way to peel a plantain is to use a sharp knife to cut the lengthwise of the plantain and the inside curve, then use the knife to raise the skin and peel it off without tearing off the mushy part of the plantain)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • toppings: salt, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Place your chopped plantains on a cookie sheet.
  3. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until they have a crispiness to them.
  4. Now use either a spatula or another cookie sheet to press the plantains down and flatten them out. Like a chip.
  5. Now heat up a large skillet or deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Add your coconut oil to get super hot.
  6. Once the oil is super hot (I like to say super) add your plantains to start frying up.
  7. Cooking on both sides for 1-3 minutes
  8. Place on a paper towel to soak up the excess oil.
  9. Top with whatever you would like while still hot!
  10. Consume!
