Ingredients

Scale

3 sweet plantains (peel is black or close to it)

1013 strips of bacon, depending on how many bites you get out of plantains

1/2 cup spicy brown mustard

4 tsp maple syrup

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove the peel from plantains (see post for instructions) and cut 1/2 inch bites diagonally.
  3. Slice the bacon strips in half.
  4. Wrap one piece of bacon around a piece of plantain and place on baking sheet. Continue until all are wrapped.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes, flip, then bake for another 10 minutes.
  6. While the plantains are baking, mix the mustard, maple syrup, cinnamon, and garlic powder to create the dip.

 

Notes

Optional: Stick toothpicks in the bacon-wrapped plantains for serving.

Note that the bacon-wrapped plantains are AIP approved as long as the bacon complies, and the dip is not AIP approved due to the mustard.
