Grew up eating these here in Florida. Lots of places to get these from. The ones you get in restaurants don't have butter. Plantains are like bananas in looks. The plantains are much bigger, less sweet, and a bit firmer.

Plantain Pancakes Plantain Pancakes
I had some ripened plantains and I thought about making pancakes with them. I did a little research and saw that someone already had. But they said to stay away from ripened plantains... I found out that they were just trying to keep the good stuff to themselves. These pancakes aren’t as sweet as they would be with banana. But honestly, they’re sweet enough. You can even eat them with whipped cream cheese and smoked salmon.. use your imagination.
