Plantain Crepes

Cultural Context

Plantain crepes are a delightful dish rooted in Latin American cuisine, where plantains are a staple ingredient. Traditionally enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack, these crepes celebrate the natural sweetness of ripe plantains, often paired with fresh fruits or syrups. In modern cooking, they have gained popularity beyond their cultural origins, embraced by health-conscious eaters for their gluten-free and dairy-free qualities.

1

Cut the ends off the plantain and score down the sides to peel it.

2

Rough cut the plantain and place it into a food processor.

3

Blend the plantain until it reaches a ricey consistency.

4

Add 1/4 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of Primal fat coconut ghee blend, and 2 eggs to the food processor.

5

Blend again until the mixture is thin, resembling rotten milk.

6

Preheat a crepe pan and add a little Primal fat to it, wiping out excess oil.

7

Pour the batter into the pan and swirl it around to create a thin, even layer.

8

Cook until a golden edge forms and the crepe releases easily from the pan, about 2 minutes.

9

Use a fish spatula to gently flip the crepe and cook for another 10-20 seconds on the other side.

10

Spread homemade Nutella on the crepe, add banana slices, sprinkle with sea salt, and drizzle with honey.

11

Roll up the crepe and enjoy.
