Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces green plantains
- 0.5 cup erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 cup keto-friendly syrup
- 8 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
Peel the green plantains and slice each into two equal halves.
Insert a wooden skewer through the length of each plantain half.
Heat the coconut oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the skewered plantains in the pan.
Fry the plantains for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden brown color.
While the plantains are frying, whisk together the erythritol sweetener, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and sea salt in a small mixing bowl.
Lower the heat and drizzle the keto-friendly syrup over the plantains while they are still in the frying pan.
Quickly sprinkle the sweetener and cinnamon mixture over the syrup-coated plantains.
Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, turning the skewers to ensure even coating.
Remove the bananaque from the pan and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve the Keto Bananaque warm and enjoy!
