Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 3 medium Bananas
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- for garnish Powdered sugar
- for topping Maple syrup or chocolate sauce
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients while whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes (optional but recommended for a more tender crepe).
While the batter rests, peel and slice the bananas into thin rounds. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, swirling it quickly to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
Flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side. Remove and set aside on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
To assemble, place a few banana slices in the center of the crepe. Sprinkle lightly with ground cinnamon and fold the crepe into quarters or roll it up.
Dust the crepes with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup or chocolate sauce before serving. Enjoy!
