    Pastel de Platano 1Pin

    This recipe was inspired by mother-in-law’s sweet-potato casserole. I had some ripe plantains at home and I wanted to make something with an American twist and my mother-in-law makes a delicious sweet potato pie. So, I decided to create something similar, but with ripe plantains and coconut. Enjoy!

      Looks delicious!
      Have you had Torta de Plantano Zuliana?? It's a great mixture of butter fried ripe platanos, white cheese, beaten eggs and cinnamon - layered lasagña style. Think you'd love it.

      This looks really great. Plantains are so much like potatoes that the texture would be similar. Our favorite is still plantain chips and just plain roasted plantains. Never have had a good recipe for that, though.

      The casserole looks like it was cooked so perfectly. You had a great idea using the plaintains in place of sweet potatoes, very original!
