Great recipe! But to get the plantain filling the customary pink that is the tradition, use way more red colouring - 10 drops for 3 plantains is about right.

Great recipe! I love plantain tarts and I have been searching for a recipe for the longest. My search stops here. Filling was great and the pastry had the right consistency

Really tasty! Made these for an island themed party and they were a hit. You don't even need to serve them with ice cream. Also I decided to add cinnamon to the plantain mix and I sprinkled a little on top along with the sugar...made a huge difference. Definitely add some cinnamon to balance out the nutmeg.

in all honesty i think they tasted a bit like they should have. my husband didnt like them at all, he thought they were bland. im going to us this again but not booil the plantain, i will fry it instead, seems that keeps the sweetness about it.

I added 1 tsp cinnamon to filling and 2 tsp sugar to the pasty. Everyone LOVED them.

I've made these 2 times so far using a frozen puff pastry. The filling is great, I substituted 1tbsp honey for sugar, and added 1/2tsp of baker's spice mix to give it that Devon House spiced flavour. Filling is great, only 4 stars because I haven't tried the pastry.

Personally i hate bananas, but i made these tarts as part of my GCSE food technology and i loved them. all the spices and flavourings really make all the difference.
