My husband and I enjoy taking turns fixing weekend breakfasts. These crepes are frequently on our menus. The sweet-and-sour banana filling is delicious. You'll want to serve them for lunch, dinner and dessert!

Ingredients

3/4 cup water
3/4 cup milk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
BANANA FILLING:
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 medium firm bananas, cut into 1/4-inch slices
SOUR CREAM FILLING:
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
Additional confectioners' sugar and toasted almonds

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the water, milk, eggs, butter and vanilla. Combine the flour, sugar and salt; add to milk mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet; pour 3 tablespoons batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter. When cool, stack crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
In a small skillet, heat butter and brown sugar over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Add bananas; toss to coat. Remove from the heat; keep warm.
In a small bowl, combine sour cream and confectioners' sugar. Spread over each crepe. Spoon banana filling over sour cream filling; sprinkle with almonds. Roll up crepes; sprinkle with additional confectioners' sugar and toasted almonds.

These weren't bad. Had a hard time getting the brown sugar to melt for the bananas but the over all taste was very good.
