Author Notes

I tried banana crepes for the first time in my university years when a friend introduced them to me after her return from a trip to England. I was quite impressed by the beautiful idea of marrying bananas and crepes batter. They make a wonderful breakfast or a light delicious dessert that you can put together in less than 30 minutes. They are best served warm or at room temperature and on the same day you make them. I love serving them with maple syrup, vanilla ice cream or chocolate sauce. —Claudia Tolea
