Plantain Loaf
- Oven, baking pan and ingredients
Ingredients
- 2-3 overripe (black) plantains
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 stick of butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Quarter teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ cup of sugar
- ½ cup sour cream
Cooking Instructions:
Follow the steps below step-by-step
🟢Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit
🟢Peel and cut the plantains into small chunks to make it easy to mash
🟢Next, use a fork or a hand mixer to mash the plantains till they are almost in a paste form
🟢Afterwards, throw in the eggs, sugar, butter, baking powder, nutmeg, vanilla extract and salt, while mixing together till you get a smooth consistency
🟢Slowly add the flour and sour cream one at a time and continue to combine the entire mixture together
🟢Once the batter has been mixed to a smooth consistency it’s time to bake
🟢Pour the batter into a greased baking pan (I use a 9 x 5inch pan)
Place a few (4 - 5, or more) Dodo Frozen Plantain slices on top of the batter in the pan, and bake for about 50 to 55 minutes
🟢Insert a toothpick or clean knife to check doneness
🟢Once it’s ready let it cool in the pan for about 20 minutes
🟢Enjoy a slice or two with your favorite ice cream or coffee
Store your plantain loaf on a plate covered with a plastic wrap or aluminum foil. The loaf will remain fresh for 3 to 4 days at room temperature.
