Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 medium bananas (sliced lengthwise)
- 1 cup strawberries (sliced)
- 0.5 cup blueberries
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 as needed cooking spray
- 4 maraschino cherries
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and no lumps remain.
Stir in the melted butter to complete your crepe batter.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, swirling it to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges of the crepe start to lift and the bottom is golden. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the finished crepes on a plate and covering them with a kitchen towel to stay warm.
To assemble, lay a crepe flat on a plate. Place half a sliced banana lengthwise in the center of the crepe.
Top the banana with a generous layer of whipped cream, followed by sliced strawberries and blueberries.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the fruit and cream, then fold the crepe sides inward to form a loose roll or leave it open-faced.
Dust the crepe with powdered sugar and top with a maraschino cherry for garnish.
Repeat with the remaining crepes, adjusting toppings as desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy these festive, flavorful crepes!
