There are three things that I love about these plantain buns.
- They don’t fall apart!
- The arrowroot powder pretty much eliminates the banana flavor.
- “Normal” sandwiches are now paleo! Thank the paleo Gods!
Paleo Lunch “Buns"
Calories 211 kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Yellow/ripe plantains
- 1 tsp Sea salt
- 1 c Arrowroot powder
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375 F.
-
Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
-
Peel and dice plantains. Toss them into your blender.
-
Blend plantains on high until they reach a nice, smooth consistency. As long as your plantains are sufficiently ripe, you shouldn’t need to add any water to the blender. If they are a little tough, add a couple of tablespoons of water (only one tbsp at a time) until they blend easier.
-
Add sea salt and arrowroot powder to the plantain mixture and blend again until well combined.
-
Place 2-3 tbsp of plantain batter in a round circle on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a spatula or spoon to get them into the desired shape.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until they turn golden.
