Cin PB Honey Plantains over Rice |
I was in H Mart (an Asian oriented mart) in Maryland, which I have fallen in love with by the way, and found plantains on sale and thought, ooh! Let us try something new!
I looked up about plantains and that they can be fried, which does not sounds as good to me. So I decided to make them more like a dessert or snack and bake them. I have no clue why peanut butter sounded SO good on it, but it did, especially when you add in honey and cinnamon.
I am such a kid too! I saw Cinnamon and went- ooh Cin! What a great play on the word sin, and how amazing delightfully sinful this dish sounded to me! So hence the name- Cin PB Honey Plantains.

Ingredients:
3 plantains
1 tbsp honey
1/3 cup butter
1 tsp cinnamon
1 heaping tbsp crunchy peanut butter
1. Preheat oven to 425.
2. strip the plantains like a banana and slice thin.
Baking in the oven! |
4. Put cinnamon, then peanut butter, than pour the butter over it and mix.
5. Add in the honey and stir.
6. lay out the plantains and pour over sauce
7. Bake for 15-20 minutes turning as necessary
8. You can serve warm, yum yum!
Seeing the time I was cooking this, we decided to make this over lunch. We put this over plain rice and my kids not only ate it up, they wanted more. You see Avi's face below? He was upset because I told him that we had to save some for daddy! So priceless!
He is trying to feed you- say ah! |
