Banana Chocolate Hazelnut And Potato Straw Crepe Recipes

BANANA, CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT AND POTATO STRAW CREPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together. Whisk in the milk, cream, butter and egg until smooth. Cover the bowl and refrigerate, about 1 hour.
• Add a pat of butter to a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 ounces of the batter and swirl around to coat the skillet in an even thin layer. Cook until light golden brown, about 1 minute. Flip the crepe with a fish spatula or thin turner and cook, 15 to 45 seconds. Transfer the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if needed.
• Spread each crepe with a generous helping of chocolate spread, slices from half a banana and a handful of potato straws. Roll up, closing off both ends and cut on a bias. Serve dusted with powdered sugar.

CHOCOLATE BANANA CREPES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together 1/2 cup milk, 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter, egg yolk, vanilla, and 2 teaspoons hazelnut liqueur. Whisk 1 tablespoon cocoa into liquid until completely incorporated. Next, whisk in 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar until completely incorporated. Then gradually whisk in flour until completely incorporated. Set aside.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir 1 tablespoon milk and 2 teaspoons hazelnut liqueur into melted butter. Stir in 1 tablespoon cocoa and 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar. Set over very low heat to keep warm.
• Spray a non-stick frying pan or crepe pan with cooking spray, and heat over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan, and swirl to form a very thin disk; cook for about 2 minutes. Flip, and cook about 1 minute more.
• Place crepe on a plate. Add 1/4 sliced bananas to crepe, and spoon 1/4 of the chocolate sauce over the bananas. Roll or fold crepe, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Repeat steps 3 and 4. Serve crepes warm.

JOE DAVID'S CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT CREPES

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the flour, egg, olive oil, salt, and half the milk. Whisk the batter well, adding the remaining milk, a little at a time, until the batter is silky smooth in consistency.
• Heat a hot nonstick skillet. Add a ladle of batter to the hot skillet. Evenly smooth out the batter. Cook until the batter sets and the underside is lightly browned. Run a spatula underneath the crepe and flip over. Cook until the other side is lightly browned. Remove from heat.
• Smear the chocolate-hazelnut spread over the crepe and add the bananas to one side. Then fold over the crepe and sprinkle with icing sugar (confectioners'). Serve the crepes immediately.
• Repeat the above process with the remaining batter to make the additional servings.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CREPE

Steps:

• Prepare the Crepe recipe. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stove or in a microwave-safe bowl. Once the chocolate is melted spread about 1 ounce of it on the prepared crepe. Place the banana on the end of the crepe and roll up the crepe with the banana inside. Place the rolled-up crepe on a cooking sheet and put in oven to warm up, about 4 to 6 minutes. To serve: Take 6 bamboo skewers and push them through the crepe at 1/2-inch intervals. With a sharp knife cut between each skewer. Arrange the pieces with the cut-sides up on a plate. Drizzle with the remaining chocolate, sea salt, and chopped walnuts.
• To make the crepes: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter and beat until smooth. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the hot griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Place on paper or cutting board to allow the crepe to cool.
