Chocolate Crepes with Peanut Butter and Banana Filling

I can cook! Seriously, I'm actually a decent cook and tonight I made some crepes that were SO GOOD, that I will share the recipe.


The recipe is as follows:

Chocolate Crepes with Peanut Butter and Banana Filling

Ingredients:

1 cup of all purpose flour
1 and 1/4 cups of milk (I used 2% organic milk)
1 egg (I used a large egg)
1 pinch of salt
1 tsp of cocoa powder
and
a small amount of butter
peanut butter
a couple bananas



Process:

Mix flour, milk, egg, salt, and cocoa powder into a mixing bowl.  Use a mixer or whisk to stir.  Make sure batter is thoroughly mixed so that there are not too many globby things in there.

Take a medium to large sized pan (or large if you like huge crepes) and set it on a burner on medium heat.  Once it has heated up, take a small amount (seriously, a tiny amount) of butter and place it in the pan.  Spread the butter around the whole pan so that every part of the pan is buttered.

Take a 1/4 cup measuring cup and scoop it full of the batter we made.


Pour it in the pan.


IMMEDIATELY tilt the pan around to spread the batter as much as possible before it hardens.


After it sits for about a minute, check the bottom.  Once it is browning, flip it.


Let the other side turn brown and then remove the crepe from the pan and place it onto a plate.


IMMEDIATELY spread peanut butter on the crepe so that it gets all melty.


Now cut up slices of banana and place them in the middle.


Fold the two sides over the banana slices so that you have a nice little burrito shape.


Yay, you made a crepe!  Now eat it.  Now make more and feed them to your friends and they will be so impressed.

  2. This crepe looks like a weak burrito.
