For best results, use very ripe plantains – they should be mostly black. If the plantain mixture is too sticky to handle, lightly grease your hands with oil. Adjust the amount of sugar in the bean filling to your liking. Some people prefer a sweeter filling. Rellenitos can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or air fryer for a crispier texture.
