Plantains with Coconut Whipped Cream
Ingredients:
- 1 large plantain, sliced
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 bpa free can full fat coconut milk, fresh from being refrigerated 24 hours (you only want the cream)
- ½ tablespoon organic vanilla extract
- 8–10 drops stevia
Method:
In a large skillet add coconut oil and melt it over medium heat. Once the oil is melted, add sliced plantains. After a few minutes, flip those plantains and continue cooking them for another 2–3 minutes. When they look nice and brown, take them out and set them on a paper
towel to drain any excess oil.
To make the easiest, most delicious coconut whipped cream ever, grab some full-fat coconut milk that you’ve been chilling in the fridge for 24 hours and scoop out all the excess coconut cream into a bowl, add some vanilla and stevia for sweetness, and then beat. That's it. Plate the plantains and top each with a dollop of cream so they look nice and fancy.
