Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.

Place plantain chunks and salt into a saucepan, and add water to cover plantains. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about 20 minutes until a fork will easily pierce the plantains.

Reserve ¼ cup of the cooking water, then drain the plantains. Allow to steam for a few minutes.

Mash the plantain with the peanut butter and reserved water until fine. Allow to stand until cool enough to handle.

Roll into 24 golf ball-sized pieces. Place onto prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the oven for about 45 minutes until the balls firm up, and turn golden brown.

Serve and enjoy.
