BAKED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease a baking sheet with oil and arrange the plantains on it.
• In a small saucepan, melt the guava jelly and rum over medium heat and season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the plantains and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.

OVEN BAKED SWEET PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Coat a nonstick cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• Cut the ends off of the plantains and peel.
• Cut each plantain on the diagonal into 1/2 inch slices.
• Arrange in single layer and coat tops with cooking spray.
• Bake, turning occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, until plantains are golden brown and very tender.

CARAMELIZED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Peel plantains and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces. Place in an oven-safe bowl and add 1/4 cup sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Stir to coat plantain slices, cover, and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place covered bowl in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
• Grease a cookie sheet and sprinkle coconut in a thin layer, to allow for even toasting. Place cookie sheet in the oven and continue to bake plantains until coconut is lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove both dishes from the oven.
• Portion plantains into bowls. Sprinkle plantains with a thick layer of sugar and use a cooking torch to caramelize the sugar. Top with toasted coconut and serve warm.

BAKED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Don't peel the plantains, but cut off their ends, then split them in half the long way. Make a few gashes in their flesh. Mix together the sugar, allspice, and cinnamon and push into those gashes. Dot with butter, pushing some of the butter into the slits as well.
• Put the plantains in a baking dish that will hold them comfortably. Bake until the tops are bubbly, about 20 minutes; you can run them under the broiler if you'd like, to brown them a bit. Let cool a little before serving.

BAKED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Cut tip off each end of plantains. Cut lengthwise slit through peel on one side of each plantain. Rub plantains with oil. Arrange plantains, cut sides up, in ungreased rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches.
• Bake uncovered about 35 minutes or until tender when pierced with fork. Make 1 or 2 lengthwise cuts through peel; remove peel. Serve plantains with butter and salt.

BAKED PLANTAIN LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300-350F (150-180C).
• Mash plantains into a thick paste by hand or with a mixer or blender.
• Add the shitor din or chilli sambal, rice flour and salt and mix well.
• Gently heat corn oil in a fying pan and add the turmeric. Stir well, remove from heat and blend into the plantain mixture which should be thick yet soft enough to pour. If it is too soft, add small amounts of rice flour (a teaspoonful at a time) or if too stiff, add small amounts of water until it reaches the described consistency.
• Grease a loaf tin, and pour plantain mixture into it.
• Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until cooked and firm.
• When cooked, remove from the oven and allow to stand for approximately 5-10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack.
• Slice and serve with salted ground peanuts, or as an accompaniment to dishes as you wish.
