And here's a popular recipe Amanda swears by, adding her own spin.
Amanda's Nutella Banana Crepes
2 eggs
1 cup milk (I used 2%)
1/3 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Dash of Nutmeg
About 1/2 cup Nutella
1 to 2 bananas, sliced
Blend all the ingredients until smooth and cook crepes according to your basic crepe protocol. [Ed: Not easy! Many a home cook has been felled by the simple crepe. But keep plugging away. Very hot pan, thin batter and patience are my only secrets.]
Fill crepes with Nutella and banana.
Thanks Amanda!
