Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 3 pieces Bananas (ripe)
• 3 tablespoons Dark rum
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for bananas)
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (for dusting)
• 0 Whipped cream (optional)
• 1 as needed Cooking spray or butter (for pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until fully combined.

Step 2

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to form a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the batter rests, peel and slice the bananas into 1/2-inch thick rounds.

Step 4

In a large skillet, melt the butter (for bananas) over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves and forms a caramel-like sauce.

Step 5

Add the bananas to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping gently to coat them in the sauce. Pour in the rum and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set the caramelized bananas aside.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick pan or crêpe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.

Step 7

Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and quickly swirl to coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

To assemble, place a few slices of caramelized bananas in the center of each crêpe. Fold the edges over or roll the crêpe around the filling.

Step 9

Dust the finished crêpes with powdered sugar and serve warm. Optionally, top with whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
