Green Plantain Waffles

The easiest way to peel green plantains is to cut off both ends, cut the plantain in half length-wise, then cut it in half again width-wise. Peel the flesh from the peel by first inserting your thumb in between them.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 cups organic or pastured chicken, leftovers work great, shredded
  • 8 eggs grass-fed
  • 2 green plantains, peeled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin coconut oil, melted (or preferred fat)
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 1/8 tsp. sea salt
  • pinch stevia, or 5 drops liquid stevia, or 1 tsp. honey

Instructions

  • Place the peeled plantain into a high-powered blender. There will be 8 quarters.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients, EXCEPT the chicken.
  • Blend on medium-low speed until the ingredients are well mixed and totally smooth. Stop the motor as needed to break air bubbles by the blade. The batter will be thick.
  • Fold the chicken into the batter with a spatula.
  • Cook waffles on a greased waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions, keeping them warm in a 200 degree oven as needed.

Notes

These waffles are also great without the gravy, just eaten out of hand like a sandwich.
