Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1 ½ cups milk
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 ripe bananas, sliced
• ½ cup caramel sauce
• Butter for cooking
• Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

How to Make Caramel Banana Crepes

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes for the best texture.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter.
3. Pour about ¼ cup of the batter into the center of the skillet, quickly swirling the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
4. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges of the crepe lift slightly and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip the crepe and cook for another 1 minute on the other side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
5. Once all crepes are cooked, fill each one with a few slices of banana and a drizzle of caramel sauce.
6. Fold the crepes into quarters and place them on serving plates. Drizzle additional caramel sauce on top and dust with powdered sugar if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• Allow the batter to rest to achieve a delicate texture in your crepes.
• Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
• Keep the cooked crepes warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest.
• If your crepes are sticking, ensure your skillet is well greased and hot enough before pouring in the batter.

Easy Variations

• Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the batter for an extra flavor kick.
• Substitute the bananas with other fruits like strawberries or apples.
• For a chocolate twist, add chocolate chips to the crepes before folding.
• Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream
• Fresh whipped cream
• A sprinkle of chopped nuts for added crunch
• A side of fresh berries
• Coffee or a hot chocolate
