CARAMEL BANANA CREPES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, stirring until ingredients are slightly mixed.
• Add the milk ½ cup (120 ml) at a time, stirring vigorously, making sure the milk is completely incorporated into the batter and that the batter is smooth before adding more milk.

CRISPY CREPES WITH DULCE DE LECHE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Toast pecans in a shallow baking pan in middle of oven, shaking occasionally, until fragrant and a few shades darker, 8 to 10 minutes. Toss immediately with 1/2 tablespoon butter and 1/8 teaspoon salt.

• Heat skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Half fill a 1/4-cup measure with batter and, holding skillet off heat, pour in batter, immediately swirling and tilting skillet to create a thin even layer.

Flip crêpe carefully and cook until golden, about 15 seconds more. Sprinkle crêpe lightly with sugar.

CREPES WITH CARAMEL-PECAN SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. To make crepes: Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Refrigerate for 1 hour and blend again before using. Heat a small nonstick pan (about 8 inches)over medium heat and brush lightly with butter. Ladle or pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into it, tilting it all around to coat the bottom (the crepes should be thin but not completely see-through). Cook until the top is a nice golden color, flip carefully with a spatula, and cook until the second side is browned, 2 minututes total. Transfer to plate and repeat to use up all the batter. When all the crepes are stacked up, separate them one by one and stack them again(this is to prevent sticking). The crepes can be made ahead of time and cooled, wrapped well in plastic, and frozen for up to 1 month. Let thaw before proceeding with recipe.
• 2. To make the caramel sauce, melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat until it begins to turn a slight brownish color and gives off a nutty aroma. Add the cajeta and milk and cook until bubbly and thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add brandy and return to heat, tilting the pan slightly to light the alcohol and burn it off (BE CAREFUL). Add the crepes, one by one, submerging them in the sauce and folding them in half and then in half again so they look like a triangles. Place 3 on each plate and top with toasted pecans.
