Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup cajeta mexican caramel sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or 1/2 cup walnuts or 1/2 cup almonds
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional)

  2. Meanwhile, toast the nuts and coconut (if using) in a dry skillet until lightly browned and fragrant.
  3. Warm the cajeta in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave.
  4. When the plantains are finished roasting, remove from oven and let cool slightly. Peel and slice, drizzle with cajeta, sprinkle with nuts/coconut, and dig in!
