Incredible taste. Wanna try something really crazy with these? I was trying out a Ropa Viejas recipe and remembered a dish I had in Manhattan a few years back. It was put together as a stacked dish, like layering/packing in a tin can and then pulling the can up/off. Based on my memory, here goes - seasoned black beans (try jalapeno/onion/garlic/smoked salt/bayleaf/tomato, rice, Ropa shredded beef, Ropa sauce and topped with these plantains (minus the cinnamon. It sounds like a crazy combination, but honestly the combination makes an incredible dish.

Excellent recipe! I believe sweet plantains should be sweet, thus the name and this recipe was a perfect representation. My family thoroughly enjoyed these!

Sweet plantains are delicious! But they do not need sugar, cinnamon , butter or vanilla extract, just fry them with nothing else added and sprinkle with salt and garlic powder while they are still hot.

I've had plantains many times but never had the guts to make them myself until now. The recipe was really simple and easy. i did find that the remaining tablespoon of butter to put on top was a bit too much to where i had a pool of butter leftover... i probably didnt cook it enough but im not a huge butter person so a little less would've been fine. definitely make sure they are completely black or else you will get frustrated easily trying to peel them. Overall it was a good recipe.

This is my first stab at making sweet plantains at home (having fell in love with them while in Puerto Rico recently. I was out of vanilla and cinnamon so I used a tablespoon of a cinnamon hot chocolate mix which created a nice crunchy coating on the outside. It was fantastic.

This recipe was very easy to follow and absolutely delicious! I didn't have the cinnamon, but the butter and brown sugar were enough.
