Yield: | about 8 to 10 crepes |
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- Pinch salt, preferable gray salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons hazelnuts, peeled, toasted, chopped
- 4 bananas
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 fresh bay leaves
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup tangerine juice
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, optional
- 1 small jar hazelnut spread (recommended: Nutella)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- Confectioners’ sugar, for serving
Instructions
- In a non-reactive bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a separate bowl mix the flour and salt. In a small sauce pot or saute pan over low heat melt the butter and cook it until it is light brown.
- Add the egg and milk mix to the flour and salt and mix well so that there are no large clumps. Add the browned butter and mix to incorporate, being careful not to overwork batter. The batter should just coat the back of a spoon. If seems too thick, thin it out with a little more milk or water. Let the batter rest for 1 hour prior to cooking crepes.

Reviews
On another note, ashlee can you give me the recipe for the banana pumpkin spice crepes and the strawberry coulis? It sounds great.
I used 1 lemon for the filling and 1/2 for the sauce, they turned out great!
I was sooooooo disappointed! They were completely overpowered by so much lemon. I’m wondering if there is a mistake in the recipe? The recipe calls for the juice of 4 lemons, total. (2 for the filling, 2 for the sauce.) I wonder if it is supposed to have been 1 each?
But, it was a whole lot of prep work and expense to make these, so I’m not going to try it again just to try to figure out how to adjust it.
I will watch to see if there are any other comments or suggestions from other reviewers before I decide to try these again.
Thank you.
