Directions

  2. Peel and slice plantains into about ½-inch pieces. (If you want step-by-step instructionson how to peel and cut plantains, check out my guide!)*
  3. Heat a skillet on medium heat with the coconut oil, enough for a thin layer on the bottom of the pan. Let it heat up for about two minutes.
  4. When the oil is hot, add the plantains in a single layer. You can do this without burning yourself by sliding them down the side of the pan, them moving them over with a fork or spatula.
  5. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until lightly browned. Watch them closely so they don’t burn! Carefully flip with a small metal spatula or fork, and sprinkle with cinnamon and sea salt.
  6. Turn the heat to medium-low, and let them go for about another minute on each side if they’re not cooked all the way through.
  7. Taste to adjust the sea salt, and devour!
