Banana Chocolate Hazelnut Crepe Heaven


Banana Chocolate Hazelnut Crepes

Adapted from a couple crepe recipes found here and here.

Crepe batter:
3/4 cup all purpose flour
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups milk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pinch salt

Sift together flour and cocoa powder. Create a well in the middle. In a smaller bowl, combine milk, eggs, sugar, oil and salt. Whisk together and then add to flour and cocoa mixture. Mix until smooth. Lightly oil a small fry pan with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup crepe mixture into the pan and make sure it coats the bottom evenly. When edges start to bubble, flip with a spatula. Placed cooked crepes onto wax or parchment paper.


Banana and Hazelnut Filling:

2 bananas sliced
3 TBS butter
3 TBS brown sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Nutella Hazelnut Spread

Heat bananas in butter. Add brown sugar and cinnamon. Stir until sugar is melted.

Lay out crepe flat. Spread Nutella spread down the center. Spoon a serving of bananas on top. Fold up crepe on both sides. Sprinkle with powder sugar or top with whipped cream....or both!
