Follow The Directions

01

Step

Toast the Almonds: In a dry skillet over medium heat, cook and stir sliced almonds until golden brown and fragrant. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (2-4 minutes). Remove from skillet and set aside.

02

Step

Prepare the Rum Sauce: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar, rum, and butter. Cover with a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap. Microwave on high until the butter is melted and the sauce is hot, stirring once halfway through. (2-3 minutes).

03

Step

Cook the Plantains: Gently place the plantain slices into the warm rum sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover the bowl and microwave until the plantains are heated through and tender, but not mushy. (1-2 minutes).

04

Step

Assemble and Serve: Transfer the plantains and sauce to a serving dish. Garnish generously with the toasted almonds. Serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of warm plantains, rich sauce, and crunchy nuts.

For an extra layer of flavor, try using spiced rum.
A splash of lime juice can add a delightful tang.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an even more decadent treat.
Be careful not to overcook the plantains, or they will become mushy.
