Best 8 Banana Foster Crepe Recipes

BANANAS FOSTER CREPE POCKETS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C).
• In a blender, combine the egg, melted butter, flour, granulated sugar, milk, and salt. Blend on medium-high speed until smooth.
• Melt ½ teaspoon butter in a 9-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until bubbling. Pour in a scant ½ cup of batter and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. 4. Cook for 2 minutes, until set and golden brown in spots on the bottom. Flip and cook for another 30-60 seconds, until cooked through and golden brown. Transfer to a baking sheet and cover with a kitchen towel while you repeat to make the remaining 3 crepes. Keep the crepes warm in the oven while you make the filling.
• Wipe out the pan and return to medium-high heat. Add the walnuts and toast for 3-5 minutes, until fragrant and beginning to brown. Remove from the pan and let cool.
• Wipe out the pan and return to medium heat. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter until bubbling. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon and cook until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in the water and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the sauce is darkened and reduced. Pour in the rum and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute, until the alcohol burns off. Fold in the bananas and cook for 1-2 minutes, until softened and glossy.
• Place a crepe on a clean surface. Spoon ½ cup of the bananas onto the center of the crepe; it's okay if some of the sauce gets into the crepe. Fold the edges of the crepe inward to create a square pocket, leaving some of the filling exposed in the center. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling. You should have plenty of sauce left over.
• Plate each crepe and top with a scoop of ice cream and 2 tablespoons of the toasted walnuts. Generously drizzle each crepe with a couple tablespoons of the leftover sauce.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Cook until flames stop, about 1 minute. Divide bananas among crepes; reserve sauce in pan.
• Fold each crepe in half, then fold in half again. Drizzle crepes with reserved sauce, and top with creme fraiche or ice cream. Serve immediately.

BANANA CREPES

• Heat a lightly greased 6 inch skillet. Add about 3 tablespoons batter. Tilt skillet so that batter spreads to almost cover the bottom of skillet. Cook until lightly browned; turn and brown the other side. Repeat process with remaining batter, grease skillet as needed.
• Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large skillet. Stir in brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in cream and cook until slightly thickened. Add half the bananas at a time to skillet; cook for 2 to 3 minutes, spooning sauce over them. Remove from heat.

BANANAS FOSTER

Steps:

• Cover a baking sheet with plastic wrap or foil. Using a serrated knife, cut ice cream package in half lengthwise through the cardboard. Wrap one half in plastic wrap and freeze for another use. Halve the remaining piece lengthwise. Flip the ice cream, with the 2 pieces still together, so the cut side is up, and cut it crosswise into 4 equal sections - you'll have 8 pieces of ice cream.
• Place a crepe on the work surface and place a piece of ice cream in the center. Fold the crepe over the ice cream to enclose completely. Place the filled crepes on the prepared baking sheet. Continue with the remaining ice cream and crepes and freeze until just firm. (This recipe can be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance. Wrap carefully in plastic wrap before freezing. Allow to soften slightly before proceeding.)
• Peel and slice the bananas on a sharp angle into 2-inch pieces. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon juice and cook, stirring, until smooth and just at a simmer, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and add orange liqueur. Return skillet to high heat and stir until smooth. Carefully fold in bananas. Remove the skillet from heat and add the rum. Return the skillet to the heat, and shake the pan back and forth to warm the rum and coat the bananas. (If working over a gas flame the sauce may ignite; continue to cook until the flames subsides.)
• To serve, place 2 filled crepes on a plate crisscrossing each other and spoon banana mixture over the top. Garnish with sifted confectioners' sugar and a sprig of mint, if desired.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Gradually whisk in the milk, water, eggs and vanilla extract, and continue whisking until smooth. (The batter can be made to this point a day ahead and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before adding the butter.) Stir in the butter. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to rest. (The crepe batter may be made in a food processor blender: Pulse the dry ingredients, then add the wet, process until smooth, and then stir in the butter.) Pour the batter into measuring cup with a spout.
• Have a plate near the stove to stack the cooked crepes, or 4 plates, if you plan to serve the crepes immediately. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water bounces and sizzles briefly around the pan before evaporating. Pour a scant 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and quickly swirl it to coat the pan evenly. Cook until the batter sets, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. The crepe will blister in the middle, and the edges will look dry and slightly crispy. Using your fingers or a spatula, carefully pick the crepe up by its edges and flip it over to cook the other side, about 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat with the rest of the batter, stacking the crepes on the plate as you go.

BANANAS FOSTER CRêPES

Steps:

• To make the crêpes, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the milk, 2 tablespoons water, the eggs, and the butter in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture and whisk to combine. Cover and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate for up to 1 day.
• Line a large plate with parchment or wax paper. Heat a crêpe pan or an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush the bottom and sides with melted butter. Add 3 tablespoons crêpe batter to the skillet and immediately tilt and swirl the skillet to spread the batter evenly over the bottom. Cook until the center of the crêpe is cooked through and the edges are lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gently flip and cook the other side for 20 seconds. Invert the crêpe onto the prepared plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, placing parchment paper between crêpes. The crêpes can be made 1 day in advance, covered, and refrigerated.
• To make the topping, whip the heavy cream with a handheld electric mixer or a balloon whisk until soft peaks form, add the crème fraîche and cinnamon, and whisk until combined.
• Place the crêpes, pale side up, on a flat surface, arrange 5 slices of banana down the center of each crêpe, and roll tightly. Place 2 crêpes on each of 4 large plates and add a few slices of banana. Top with a large dollop of the whipped cream and chopped walnuts and spoon some of the caramel sauce over the crêpes. Dust with some of the cinnamon confectioners' sugar and garnish with mint sprigs if desired.
• CARAMEL SAUCE
• Combine the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, swirling the pot occasionally (do not stir) to even out the color. Cook until deep amber in color, about 8 minutes.
• While the caramel is cooking, pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• When the caramel has reached a deep amber color, slowly whisk in the heavy cream. Be careful; the hot mixture will bubble. Whisk until smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the cinnamon, orange liqueur, and rum. The sauce can be cooled, covered, and refrigerated for up to 1 week. Reheat over low heat or in the microwave. Serve warm.
