Whipped cream for topping

How to Serve Strawberry Banana Crepes

How to Store Strawberry Banana Crepes

If you have leftover crepes, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keep the crepes and the filling separate to maintain their texture. They can last for up to three days. When you’re ready to eat, simply reheat the crepes in a pan or microwave, add the fruit, and top with whipped cream.

Tips to Make Strawberry Banana Crepes

Make sure your pan is hot before pouring the batter, so the crepes cook evenly.
Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
Experiment with different fruits, like blueberries or peaches, for a unique twist.
Don’t forget to whisk the batter well to avoid lumps.

Variation

You can switch out the fruits for your favorites. For example, try adding Nutella along with strawberries and bananas for a more indulgent treat. You can also make a savory version by using cheese and spinach as the filling instead of fruits.

Yes, you can prepare the crepe batter a few hours ahead of time. Just store it in the refrigerator and give it a quick stir before using.
