Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch of salt
2 ripe bananas, sliced
½ cup Nutella or chocolate spread
Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Chocolate sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Crepe Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. Allow the batter to rest for about 30 minutes.
Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Cook the Crepes: Pour about ¼ cup of the batter into the center of the hot pan, quickly swirling the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
Fill the Crepes: Spread 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella on one half of a crepe, top with banana slices, then fold or roll the crepe.
Serve: Drizzle chocolate sauce over the filled crepes while still warm, and dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately, optionally with whipped cream.
