Nutella Crepes

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   Make the batter: in a blender, combine 1 cup of flour, 2 eggs, 1.5 cups of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 tablespoon of sugar, ½ teaspoon vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high for 30 seconds until completely smooth. Rest the batter for at least 30 minutes (this lets the flour fully hydrate and gives more tender crepes).

2. 2

   Heat an 8 or 9-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, brush very lightly with melted butter. Wipe most of it out with a paper towel — too much butter makes greasy crepes.

3. 3

   Pour ¼ cup of batter into the center of the pan. Immediately tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin even circle covering the entire bottom. Speed matters — work fast.

4. 4

   Cook 60-90 seconds until the edges lift and the bottom is golden with brown spots. Slide a thin spatula under and flip. Cook the second side just 30 seconds. Slide onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking finished crepes.

5. 5

   While the crepes are still warm, spread each with 2 tablespoons of Nutella (the heat melts it slightly into the surface). Add 4-5 slices of banana on one half.

6. 6

   Fold the crepe in half over the filling, then fold in half again into a quarter shape. Plate, dust with powdered sugar, and serve immediately with a drizzle of melted Nutella or whipped cream on top.
