Ingredients
 

  • 4 very ripe plantains peeled
  • ½ cup masarepa
  • 6 tablespoons warm water
  • ⅓ cup of grated panela or brown sugar
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • ½ cup grated mozzarella cheese optional
  • Banana leaves cut into pieces about 12 inches long or aluminum foil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Wash the leaves well with hot water and set aside.
  • Place all the ingredients, except the banana leaves in the food processor and process until the plantains are pureed. Place in a bowl, cover and set aside for about 40 minutes.
  • To assemble: place 1 piece of the leaf on a work surface and spread about ¼ cup of plantain mixture in the center of the banana leave.
  • Fold the banana leave enclosing all of the filling, like you are making a package. Continue the process until all the envueltos are wrapped.
  • Place them on a baking sheet and bake for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Serve them warm.
