Ingredients:
1 package strawberries, washed and cut
3 bananas, sliced
1 box crepe mix (I usually use the Barefoot Contessa mix from Crate and Barrel, however this time I tried using a cheap mix I bought from Ross and it turned out just as good)
1 jar Nutella
1 can whipped cream
additional ingredients called for by crepe mix (usually eggs, butter, and water)
1. Follow directions on crepe mix box. Batter should be on the thinner side, so add a little water if too thick. Mix well.
2. Brush or spray a sautee pan with vegetable oil and heat on medium.
3. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter on heated pan and swirl/spread batter around using the back of a plastic bunch bowl spoon until batter is very thin. Work your way from the center outwards, moving in swirls. Crepes shouldn't be as thick as pancakes. If you have ever made or eaten dosas before, then you know what I'm talking about. Except crepes shouldn't be crispy like dosas.
4. When the batter looks dry, flip over using a spatula. You can also tell when its ready to be flipped by peeking at the bottom of the crepe; it should be barely golden brown with maybe a few brown spots here and there.
5. Cook the other side of the crepe until barely golden as well. Crepes should be soft and may seem slightly undercooked.
6. Cover crepes in aluminum foil until you are finished making all of the batter.
7. Spread a generous amount of Nutella on the crepe. Fill with strawberries and banana slices. You may choose to top with powdered sugar and whipped cream, but they are just as delicious without. Why have the extra calories?
8. Roll crepe and enjoy! Eat with a fork.
Pretty pictures. You can buy crepe mixes at Ross?
