1
Prepare the Plantains
Peel the ripe plantains and cut them into diagonal slices about 1 inch thick.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat until hot.
3
Fry the Plantains
Add the plantain slices to the skillet and fry them until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
4
Dust with Cinnamon Sugar
In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Once the plantains are fried, remove them from the skillet and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over them while they are still warm.

5
Make the Coconut Whip
In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer to whip until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
