Ingredients

• 2 medium Green plantains
• 8 pieces Canned jackfruit in water
• 8 pieces Low-carb tortillas or coconut wraps
• 0.25 cup Sugar-free caramel syrup
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons Granular erythritol or coconut sugar (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the plantains and slice each one in half lengthwise, then cut these pieces in half to make 8 long quarters.

Step 2

Drain the jackfruit pieces and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 3

Place one piece of plantain and one piece of jackfruit onto each low-carb tortilla or coconut wrap.

Step 4

Drizzle about a teaspoon of sugar-free caramel syrup over the plantain and jackfruit.

Step 5

Wrap the tortilla or coconut wrap tightly around the filling like a spring roll. Secure the end with a bit of water to seal.

Step 6

In a frying pan over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Once heated, carefully add the wrapped turon, seam-side down.

Step 7

Fry each turon for about 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

If desired, sprinkle each turon with a little bit of erythritol or coconut sugar for added sweetness immediately after frying, while they are still hot.

Step 9

Remove turon from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.

Step 10

Serve warm as a delightful snack or dessert.
