I made these Nutella banana crepes one weekend when I wanted something sweet for breakfast but didn’t want to deal with a huge baking project first thing in the morning. Crepes always seem harder than they actually are, but once you make the batter, the rest goes pretty fast honestly.
The warm crepes with melted Nutella and soft banana slices inside just work so well together. They taste like something you’d order at a café but without leaving the house or paying way too much for two tiny crepes. I’ve made these for brunch, dessert, and late-night cravings more times than I probably should admit. If you already like recipes like Bacon Wrapped Chicken Tenders, Strawberry Lemonade Cake, or Cinnamon Roll Bread these Nutella banana crepes fit perfectly into that homemade sweet breakfast rotation.
Why You Will Love These Nutella Banana Crepes
What I love most about these crepes is how simple the ingredients are while still tasting really good. You probably already have most of the ingredients sitting in the kitchen right now.
The crepes turn soft and slightly buttery while the Nutella melts perfectly once spread inside.
Another thing I like is that they look impressive without requiring complicated cooking skills. Once you get the first crepe done, the rest become way easier.
You can also customize them easily with strawberries, whipped cream, chopped nuts, or extra chocolate depending on what you feel like that day.
What You Will Need For Nutella Banana Crepes
A non-stick skillet works best because crepes are much easier to flip without sticking or tearing apart halfway through.
You’ll also need a blender or whisk for mixing the batter smooth without lumps.
A thin spatula helps flip the crepes more easily once the edges start lifting from the pan.
If you want evenly thin crepes, a measuring cup helps pour the same amount of batter each time.
Ingredients Needed
For The Crepes
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1½ cups milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
For The Filling
- ½ cup Nutella
- 2 bananas, sliced
- Powdered sugar for serving
How To Make Them
Add the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender or large bowl.
Blend or whisk until the batter becomes smooth.
Let the batter rest for about 10 to 15 minutes if possible.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter.
Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet while swirling the pan to spread it thinly.
Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until the edges begin lifting slightly, then flip carefully and cook the other side briefly.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
Spread Nutella over each crepe and add banana slices down the center.
Fold or roll the crepes and dust lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
I usually eat these while they’re still warm because the Nutella gets perfectly melted that way. These crepes also go really well with Strawberry Sweet Iced Tea, Apple plum juice, or even Peach Tofu Smoothie if you’re putting together a brunch spread.
Tips For Best Nutella Banana Crepes
If the batter feels too thick, add a splash more milk so the crepes spread more easily in the pan.
The first crepe sometimes turns out messy while the pan heats properly, so I usually accept that and move on honestly.
Keeping the heat around medium helps the crepes cook evenly without becoming too dark too quickly.
Warm Nutella spreads much easier, especially if your kitchen is cold.
