Ingredients:

1 cup plantain flour

1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

pinch of nutmeg

pinch of cloves

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

2 large pasture-raised eggs

1 cup apple, minced

1/2 lemon, juiced

1-2 tablespoons grass-fed butter

Directions:

1. In a large mixing bowl add plantain flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and baking soda. Stir to combine with a large spoon.

2. Whisk eggs in a small bowl.

3. Add minced apple, lemon juice and whisked eggs to the flour mixture and stir to combine well.

4. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10.25 inch cast iron skillet over medium heat.

5. While the skillet is heating up, mold a tablespoon of the apple mixture between your hands and form it into a patty.

6. Add 3 patties to the skillet at a time. If using a different size pan or your patties are larger/smaller, just try not to crowd.

7. Cook each patty for 3-5 minutes on each side to brown and cook through evenly. Transfer cooked patties to a plate and repeat with the final 3 burgers.

8. Serve your apple burgers topped with any leftover minced apple and a drizzle of maple syrup. You can serve them over the top of a salad or topped with homemade or local stone-ground mustard.

Bon Appetit!
