❓ Are Plantains Healthy?
Yes, plantains are a fantastic option if you haven't already added green plantains into your recipes. They contain many wonderful vitamins and minerals the body needs to function daily. The fiber and potassium content are important reasons why you should try making a plantain dinner recipe.
💚 Plantain Nutrition Facts
Plantains are rich in fiber and a great source of potassium too. They also contain antioxidants that help fight free radicals. Green plantains also contain vitamin C, which is great for supporting good immune function.
They are a great substitute for potatoes if you want to bump up your nutritional content, because they are rich in additional vitamins.
Green plantains actually contain more potassium, magnesium, and vitamin C than typical potatoes. They contain fiber, which helps digestion and weight management.
They make the perfect gluten-free replacement. Try mashing up cooked plantains into pancakes or bulking up soups and stews.
🧡 How To Make a Grain-Free Green Plantain Tortillas Wrap Recipe
Makes 6 medium sized plantain tortillas or 12 mini grain-free tortillas.
📖 Recipe
Green Plantain Tortilla Wrap
Ingredients
- 3 plantains, green
- 1 to 2 tablespoons cassava flour
- 1 teaspoon turmeric, ground
Instructions
- To make the green plantain tortilla, first slice the plantains into one inch pieces. Toss into a pot of boiling salted water. Boil for 15 minutes.
- Remove the skin from the boiled plantains. Toss into a blender with turmeric and black pepper. Blend until the mixture combines. Add in a tablespoon or two of flour of choice. I used cassava flour to keep these plantain tortillas grain-free.
- *Note: *(You can also simply mash them with a fork and combine the cassava flour)
- Next, divide the dough into 6 equal balls. Then roll out the mixture. If you prefer smaller tortillas, divide the dough even more into the desired size of your tortilla.
- In a frying pan, add a drop of oil and heat up. Brown the tortillas for 1 to 2 minutes on each side.

🍽️ How Do You Store Grain-Free Plantain Tortilla Wraps?
These AIP plantain tortilla wraps are easy to store. It's best to keep these Paleo tortillas stored in an airtight container inside the refrigerator for about 6 to 7 days.
Simply warm them up when you are ready to use them. I do this by wrapping them in a damp paper towel for 20 seconds in the microwave. This will still allow them to be pliable.
You can also gently warm them in a pan over low heat to raise the temperature back up, without browning them even more.
❄️Can You Freeze This Plantain Tortilla Recipe?
Yes, simply place them between pieces of parchment or wax paper and store in a reusable freezer bag or freezer safe container. Thaw before serving.
❓ Can I Bake These Green Plantain Tortillas?
Yes, you can certainly spread the mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes. However, I find it best to use a drop of oil in a frying pan and pan fry, because the texture comes out nice and crispy. It takes a bit longer to set up in the oven too.
