Ingredients

• 1 Plantain (yellow or yellow/brown works best)
• 1/4 to 1/3 cup Avocado Oil (or frying oil of choice)
• 1 Tablespoon Tapioca Starch/Flour
• Sea Salt

Directions

• Add your oil to a deep frying pan, like this one, and heat to medium-high. Peel your plantain and add the fruit to a food processor or chopper like this one. Add tapioca starch and blend until you have a creamy, pudding-like texture. When your oil is hot, use a spoon to add batter to pan. Make two large pancake sized rounds. Flip when nicely browned on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Cook the other side until browned, about 4-5 additional minutes. Remove from pan and cool on a plate lined with parchment paper, it helps the cakes stay crispy. While still hot, sprinkle with sea salt. If you want to keep it simple, eat as is or with a sprinkle of cinnamon. If youre feeling adventurous, use these as a base and pile on your favorite ingredients for a plantain stack.
