Ingredients

4 whole ripe plantains
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon cinnamon
0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

Step 2

Peel the plantains by cutting off the ends and slicing through the peel lengthwise. Remove the peel and slice the plantains diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

Step 3

Place the plantain slices in a large mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, cinnamon, and salt, and toss until the plantains are evenly coated.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the plantain slices on the baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring that they do not overlap.

Step 5

Bake the plantains in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning them halfway through baking until they are golden brown and tender.

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the plantains to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 7

Serve the baked plantains warm as a side dish, snack, or dessert.
