Sweet Fried Plantains with Peanuts

4.3 from 308 cooks

Ripe plantains fried in butter until caramelized, finished with a touch of brown sugar and cinnamon, and topped with crunchy roasted peanuts.

Ripe, heavily spotted plantains have enough natural sugar to caramelize beautifully in a hot buttered skillet without much help. A pinch of brown sugar and cinnamon at the end pushes the caramelization further while the fruit is still soft in the center. A scatter of roasted peanuts on top adds crunch that the soft plantains do not have on their own.
