Birthday Banana Crepes


So last week was my boyfriend, MGG's birthday and since we had such a large dinner we didn't order dessert.  I know, that's sad.

So, when we got home I decided to whip up an easy dessert, Banana Crepes.

Now, this is a semi-homemade version using pre-made crepes, cause it's meant to be quick....but you can certainly take the time if you want and make crepes from scratch and they will be stupendous!

These were so yummy and have jut enough uniqueness to be "special"...."birthday special"!
Happy Birthday MGG!

I didn't take step by step photos on this one, cause it's super simple.  You'll see.
Try them and tell me what you think!



Banana Crepes

Serves 2

2 Crepes, pre-made
1 T. Butter
2 T. Brown sugar
1 large banana
1 square Bakers semi-sweet chocolate

Melt the chocolate square in a small glass bowl, in the microwave.  Microwave at 30 second intervals stirring in between, until melted. About 1 min.

Slice the banana into 1/2" slices.  Add butter and brown sugar to a hot skillet.  Stir until melted.  Add banana and coat with sugar mixture.  Cook 1- 1 1/2 minutes until heated through.

Fold crepe in half and in half again. Place on serving plate.  Top with hot bananas and brown sugar mixture.  Drizzle with melted chocolate.  Enjoy!

  1. I love crepes with fruit on top. This is a great dessert because it satisfies your sweet tooth but you don't feel like it is too heavy or rich. :)
