Very easy and filling snack without allergens and without refined sugar. Snacking is one of my bad habits but I am working on it :D Sometimes it requires to bribe my belly with something truly tasty and guilt free. This plantain baked in coconut oil is such a healthy alternative to the processed food snacks.
Snacking on bacon is not that bad either ;-) Fats are good for thyroid. Tip: Fried bacon cut in small pieces and sprinkled on a salad instead of croutons adds nice flavor to it :)
Things you are going to use to make the plantain snack
Utensils: a frying pan and a spatula
Ingredients: ripe (yellow) plantain, a table spoon of coconut fat and a half teaspoon of cinnamon
What you need to do
- Cut plantain in small rings (the riper plantain the sweeter it is)
- Heat a table spoon of coconut fat (The coconut fat in glass containers has the best quality)
- Add plantain to the coconut fat and fry on both sides
- In the end sprinkle generously the cinnamon
- Served warm is nicest :)
As I am typing it, I am thinking how would the plantain taste when prepared on a grill. Never tried but perhaps something to test this summer :D
Enjoy your snacking!
