Food: Dessert Crepes

If you've ever been to France, you've probably had a dessert crepe. Complete with the heavenly chocolate-hazelnut spread, Nutella. My oh my are they amazing. While we were in Nice, France, several years ago, we had a fave place that we would visit (everyday) that made the best dessert crepes. 

We make our own from time to time and while they aren't a real French crepe, to us they are the next best thing :)
Dessert Crepes
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
2 Tbsp. butter, melted and cooled
1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt

Toppings:
Nutella, Bananas (sliced), Strawberries (sliced)

Whisk together eggs, milk water, butter and vanilla. Stir together flour and salt. Gradually add flour mixture to egg and milk mixture. Stir/whisk to combine so that there are no lumps. 

Heat a large griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray Pour 1/3 cup batter onto frying pan and tilt around to move batter over surface of pan. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, flip with a spatula, and then cook another minute. Repeat with remaining batter.

To serve: Spread Nutella over warm crepe, add strawberries and bananas. Roll up like a burrito and enjoy! :)

  1. We make these for breakfast on the weekend, but you use way more Nutella than we do. Wow! Victoria just wants Strawberry jam in hers...doesn't know what she's missing. Never been to Nice, just Paris, but didn't have crepes, can you believe that?
