Nutella Crepes with Bananas and Strawberry
Description
Crepes are prepared by blending flour, sugar, eggs, milk, water, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth, then chilling the batter for one hour. This resting allows the batter to hydrate and results in tender crepes. Cooking is done in a lightly buttered pan over medium-high heat by pouring and swirling 1/4 cup of batter to form a thin layer. Each side cooks about 30 seconds until lightly browned.
The finished crepes are cooled on parchment lined surfaces before filling. Each is folded in half and spread with 1-2 tablespoons of hazelnut spread (Nutella), then topped with sliced strawberries and bananas on one half. They are folded again or served as is, balancing the soft crepe with the creamy Nutella and fresh fruit.
The notes recommend buttering the pan between each crepe to promote even browning and the distinctive spotted appearance, despite using a non-stick pan. Crepes can be made ahead, cooled, folded, and refrigerated for up to two days, then reheated briefly in the microwave for convenient serving.

- 1 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water

Instructions
Crepes
- Combine all ingredients (except butter for the pan) in a blender. Blend for 30 seconds or until ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Place batter in the refrigerator and let sit for 1 hour.
- When the batter is ready heat a small non-stick pan over medium high heat.
- Lightly butter the pan then lift it off of the heat and pour 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the pan swirling it around so the batter runs to the edges of the pan making a thin circular crepe. Place the pan back on the heat and cook for 30 seconds (or until bottom begins to brown) then flip and cook for 30 seconds on the other side.
- Turn the finished crepes out on to a parchment paper lined countertop to cool.
- Repeat the process until all of the crepe batter has been used.
- Once the crepes are made you can begin filling. Fold each crepe in half making a half circle. Then spread 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella Hazelnut Spread on each crepe.
- Cover 1/2 of the folded crepe with sliced strawberries and bananas and then fold one side up and over to make a triangle filled with Nutella Hazelnut Spread and fruit.
- Enjoy!
Notes
