Delicious grain free recipe for plantain biscuits loaded with healthy fats that are excellent served for dinner with soup or stew or slathered with butter and jam for breakfast on the go.
Preheat oven to 350 F/ 177 C. Peel plantains, cut in half lengthwise and crosswise.
In a large skillet, add the oil, and over medium heat, fry the plantains until they are just golden — about 3-4 mins per side.
After the plantains are cooked, add them to a food processor and puree until they begin to clump together. Add the melted butter, eggs and cream and puree until smooth. Add the flour and baking powder and pulse one last time to combine everything well.
Drop onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a cast iron biscuit pan. Bake for 25-30 min or until slightly brown and cooked through. Let cool to room temperature before eating.
We cut these biscuits in half and enjoy with grass-fed butter and jam on top. These biscuits would also be excellent instead of bread with soup or stew.
Substitute pastured lard or avocado oil for the coconut oil if desired.
