Per serving:
1 yellow ripe plantain with long black streaks

brown sugar and cinnamon. Dot with butter. Place in a 350 degree
oven and bake until tender about 30 minutes.

aluminum foil. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon and dot with
butter. Seal the foil and bake in 350 degree oven about 30 minutes.

Easy, delicious, and perfect if you're in a hurry!, May 12, 2004 - 02:30 PM
Reviewer: Adam from Lexington, KY
I was in a hurry for lunch, so I re-heated some dinner leftovers from the night before. I took a black Plantain and sliced it lengthwise down the center, peeled it, put soft butter on top, sprinkled some brown sugar on it, put it in a plastic sandwich bag (leaving it open), and microwaved it for 3 minutes on medium heat. IT WAS THE PERFECT COMPLIMENT TO MY LUNCH!
