Have you ever wanted to kick over someone’s motorcycle? I’ve never actually had that feeling until yesterday. Mostly because I know the guy who owns the motorcycle and he’s a Grade A Tool. Capital T. I didn’t kick his motorcycle over because I firmly believe in karma and I don’t want to crap on my own, but I did think about it. Just thought I’d put that thought into the world.
I’m a bad person.
OMG, guess what today is? The start to my cousin’s wedding. This wedding stuff is extremely overwhelming to me. I’m not very thoughtful. Weddings don’t excite me at all. And I lack the happiness and emotion that is usually paired along with a family member, like my cousin, marrying a man and spending the rest of their lives together. Now don’t get me wrong. I’m very happy for her. But I just don’t get very excited about married stuff. Maybe it’s because I’m young. Maybe it’s because I don’t ever want the big wedding shabang. I don’t know how to spell that word. Or maybe it’s because I’m a bad person. I don’t really know. Either way, we have two days of love ahead of us.
Today we start with a luncheon. Which, I don’t really know what that means other than lunch. Then we have mani/pedis, thank gosh, since I’m in dire need of one. Then we have the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. We’ll be eating New Orleans inspired food since that’s where her finance’s family is from. Ummmmmm YUM!
Then the wedding is tomorrow. We are wearing baby doll style dresses so hopefully when I start to dance, naughty parts don’t show. I’m also wearing wedges that are a disgusting height. They are not comfortable either. I don’t know what I was thinking. But I am hoping they loosen up a bit as the wedding day goes by. Or at least until the wedding is over and I can pull those damn things off at the dinner table. I really love wedges right now. They make my legs look SO much longer.
Now enough about weddings and love. Let’s talk about a different kind of love. Food love. I made this biscuits the other day and LOVED them. They are similar to my Thanksgiving Sweet Potato Biscuits, but more dense. And much sweeter. Because I made them extra sweet. Who does love a sweet biscuit with butter and jam on it? Do you ever go to a restaurant for brunch and just stare at the biscuits longing to stuff your face with them? But instead you just dip your finger in the jam for some kind of happiness to evoke in your brain? No? That’s just me? Whatever.
Either way, these biscuits are great. But you’ll have to check back for the jam recipe tomorrow. MUHAHAHAHAHA. Jokes on you.
Sweet Plantain Drop Biscuits
- Yield: 8 1x
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 brown plantains (they must be brown!!)
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon canned coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1–2 teaspoons cinnamon (I used 2 because I love cinnamon)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut the ends off of the plantains, then use your knife to cute them in half lengthwise and then peel the skin off, cutting off any excess skin that sticks to the plantains. The browner the plantains are, the sweeter they will be and the easier the skin is to take off.
- Now place a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 3 tablespoons of coconut oil to heat up, then add the halved plantains to the skillet. Cook on both sides for about 3-4 minutes until browned, making sure not to burn them.
- Once the plantains are done cooking, add them to thefood processorand puree until they begin to clump together.
- Then add the maple syrup, coconut oil, eggs, and coconut milk and puree until smooth. No clumps should be present at this point.
- Now add coconut flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt to the food processor and puree one more time to combine everything well.
- Now line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grab an ice cream scoop to help form perfect sized biscuits.
- Scoop the batter out and plop each biscuit on the baking sheet about 1 inch away from each other. My batter made 8 biscuits.
- Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until slightly brown and completely cooked through.
- Let cool. These babies are hot and need to settle afterwards.
- Eat with grass fed butter, or don’t, I don’t care. As well as my favorite jam. Which be on tomorrow’s post. Haha. Kbye.

I just made these and they are amazing!
Once I open a can of coconut milk, how long will it last? I’m only using one tablespoon for this recipe. Looking forward to some biscuits tomorrow! Wish me luck.
I think it’s only suppose to last a week or so
Thanks for such a great recipe! This was my first time doing paleo baking, and I didn’t realize the difference between bananas and plantains… I used bananas and my biscuits came out more like pancakes. I still ate them! Covered in your raspberry blueberry jelly!!! Next time I will be sure to grab plantains instead of bananas.
I’m in the middle of making these and just realized the ingredients list baking powder but the instructions call for baking soda. Can you tell me which is correct?
sorry about that!! baking powder. now changed!
How big should the plantains be?
mine were about 8-10 inches long
HAH! I love you! So glad you were a HUGE part of the day!
Your biscuits look so beautiful, light & flaky. Were they firm/flaky? I just made them, they were DELICIOUS…but they were super dark and really spongy. Very good, but not the texture I was hoping for. Any ideas?
haven’t mastered the flaky biscuits yet. try urban poser website for good biscuits
These r in the oven… the batter was delish…A cooking vid w these would be great cause its hard to know how brown to make the plantains and how to get the stuck bits at the bottom of the food processor. Also I ordered your book today!!! And can u bring tank tops back? Seeing as I eat stuff from your blog every day may as well broadcast that I think it’s awesome…:)
These are amazing! I don’t have an ice cream scoop, so mine were not as pretty and round… But who cares? They were light and had just the right amount of sweetness! I am thinking…sausage biscuits???
made these tonight – followed the recipe exactly but mine were sorta runny and did not “drop” onto the parchment paper but sorta “flowed” 🙂 the batter was pretty runny…….did not mound at all, they looked more like a pancake……but DELICIOUS none the less! will try them again but any suggestion what i might have done wrong? did i over process them in the food processor maybe??? oh LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your site!!!
Try using more coconut flour next time!!
yeah, actually thought of that but was in such a rush to get them in the oven I forgot! will try again and let you know!! thanks!!!!
