Peel the plantains and slice each one in half lengthwise, then cut these pieces in half to make 8 long quarters.
Drain the jackfruit pieces and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Place one piece of plantain and one piece of jackfruit onto each low-carb tortilla or coconut wrap.
Drizzle about a teaspoon of sugar-free caramel syrup over the plantain and jackfruit.
Wrap the tortilla or coconut wrap tightly around the filling like a spring roll. Secure the end with a bit of water to seal.
In a frying pan over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Once heated, carefully add the wrapped turon, seam-side down.
Fry each turon for about 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
If desired, sprinkle each turon with a little bit of erythritol or coconut sugar for added sweetness immediately after frying, while they are still hot.
Remove turon from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Serve warm as a delightful snack or dessert.
